Software Engineer, Web Developer

Overview

We are undertaking a technical revamp of our website and are looking for three software engineers to join us to help with the transformation. This is an exciting time to be joining the University of Southampton as we are looking to rebuild, consolidate and rearchitect large parts of our sites to meet best practices for technical design, content and accessibility.

• Work with the team to define, analyse and resolve technical backlog
• Develop static and data driven solutions to improve and expand the current offerings on the website
• Proactively work with our content design and user experience team to define how the website should function
• Develop tests and documentation for everything you do

• Strong experience of at least one of the following:
• Drupal 10 software backend and frontend development
• Frontend development including HTML, CSS, JavaScript and ideally Vue.js
• Linux and Azure platform management
• The ability to present your ideas and your specialist area, to a wide and potentially non-technical audience

We don’t expect one person will have all of the skills above, however we will be looking for a team, including our current developers, which covers all of these.

The University of Southampton is a research-driven institution, home to some of the world’s leading minds, expanding our knowledge and passing it on to future generations. iSolutions is the University’s IT support service whose 230+ staff support the delivery of the University’s research and education activities as well as the usual business operations. We would love you to join us and help change the world for the better.

The University of Southampton promotes a healthy work life balance with generous holiday allowance (30+ days), defined benefit pension, flexi-time and flexible working, generous parental leave and childcare provision. For more information on our benefits, please visit our human resources pages.
