How You'll Spend Your Time:

Enclave Networks in Newport, Wales is next up, with a hunt for developers to join its mission to help people build simpler, smarter, and more secure computer networks both at work and at home.
Senior C# developer, Newport, Wales
Enclave is a networking technology which just works. Without listening ports, visible IP addresses or DNS records, your infrastructure goes dark to attackers, allowing you to quickly build secure and private connectivity between any application, computer system, device, or infrastructure — regardless of the underlying network.
We are looking for talented C# developers who treat code as craft, understand computer security concepts and have experience working with network protocols and systems level programming to help us continue to design, build and scale Enclave and our SaaS platform. This is a key role working as part of a scrappy team of passionate developers making a big impact with few resources and reporting directly to the CTO.
Our stack is primarily C# .NET Core 3.1 but you'll also be working with cloud infrastructure, network protocols, cryptography and systems level programming across Windows, Linux and Mac OS and mobile platforms, so you'll need a willingness to learn and a desire to tackle hard problems.
The hunt is also on for full stack developers over at GetAgent - the UK's leading estate agent comparison site, which aims to provide a transparent and data-driven way for homeowners to choose the best agent to sell their most valuable asset.
Lead Full Stack Developer at GetAgent
We ingest millions of property listings each year to create an objective measure of estate agent performance. Using our unique data, homesellers sell quicker and for more money.
What you'll do
As we expand into new products and with more and more home sellers using the GetAgent platform, we are looking for an intelligent and talented Lead Developer to support our growth.
As a pivotal member of the Tech Team, you'll mentor and develop junior developers and review work. The majority of your day will be working on improving and adding new features to our existing products. As we venture into new products you'll have the opportunity to dive in however you see fit and lead the process from idea generation and goal setting all the way to measuring the impact of your work.
What we need from you:
Intelligence – You don't have to be Einstein, but we're looking for someone with the ability to successfully assess a situation and problem solve.
Passion for tech - We're looking for someone who enjoys learning new technologies and would probably be coding in their spare time if they weren't being paid for it.
Personality - We're looking for someone who has the innate ability to spark and maintain meaningful conversations with your colleagues.
Lolly.co, which provides technology consulting services that help clients unlock insights and opportunities, is seeking a full stack developer for its UK team.
Full Stack Developer, Remote, UK
We are looking for a hands-on developer who is highly skilled and confident across the full stack. You must be excited by great UX, as you will be involved in designing and building applications where user engagement will be critical to the success of a project.
You will need to be independent minded and take responsibility for your own work. A problem solver is essential as you are expected to propose your own solutions, as well as delivering according to specification.
Lolly Co build solutions for companies across the globe looking to digitally transform their operations. Typically this involves creating custom software systems that automate business processes and creating apps/websites to fulfil a frictionless customer journey.
This job will suit a candidate who wants to challenge their existing skillset, is interested in the opportunity to explore all aspects of modern software development and has a strong drive for delivery.
That wraps it up for this week. Good luck, and keep sending in those job roles wherever they are in the world. ®
