Are you a creative developer who enjoys working on integrations?
Do you enjoy working with MuleSoft, or other languages such as C#, Java, PHP, JavaScript, Go or Python, and want to move into developing integration applications and data integrations using cloud technologies?
We have a great opportunity for a Senior Developer (Integrations) to join an innovative development team responsible for the development and support of systems and data integrations across the Universitys professional services and academic departments.
As part of an agile development team, you will contribute to the design, build, and support of data integrations and web applications, working closely with both technical and non-technical colleagues to deliver high-quality, reliable solutions.
About You
You are comfortable working across back-end systems and integrations, and you understand how strong technical foundations, good documentation, and collaboration contribute to long-term service stability.
You are motivated by solving real-world problems and enjoy working in an environment where your work has meaningful organisational impact.
You will bring:
- A solid understanding of the software development life cycle, including requirements analysis, design, testing, deployment, and ongoing support
- Strong understanding of API-led connectivity, data transformation, and integration patterns
- A good understanding of SQL or equivalent data query languages, with experience of Oracle, MS SQL Server, or MySQL
- Experience with integration and back-end development, including MuleSoft or similar platforms, along with integration and unit testing
- Experience using Git and established Git workflows
- Experience working in an agile environment, contributing to sprint planning, retrospectives, and defining user stories or requirements
- A collaborative and professional approach, with the ability to work effectively alongside developers, analysts, and other technical specialists
If you havent worked with MuleSoft or dont have significant integration experience but have proven programming skills and a solid understanding of the software development process, we would still love to hear from you. We appreciate that some people can be put off applying if they dont match every requirement; if youre excited about the role and think you can achieve what weve described, we welcome your application.
