Description

System C is the UK’s leading health and social care software and services company. Our easy-to-use IT platforms provide a complete view of the individual across all care settings, helping integrate services and improve care. We are a British company with over 35 years’ experience.

Our Health division solutions use leading-edge technologies - including mobile, wearables, instant messaging, and machine learning - to radically redesign services and the way clinicians and patients interact together.

As a member of our Agile development team, you will collaborate with fellow developers on our Web Application framework and the applications built upon it. Your role will encompass the full stack, from the Vuetify/Vue front end to the NodeJS/C# back end.

Our culture and ways of working reflect and embed the practices and methodologies of our company – where pace, intelligence and agility are all both expected and valued.

Ability to work away from home and willingness to travel will be required at times.

Duties and Responsibilities: Responsibilities:

  • Engage in regular Agile meetings to discuss and clarify project requirements.
  • Design, develop, and unit test new software features, while also addressing bugs and making enhancements to existing modules.
  • Support team members in learning and troubleshooting as they develop applications using the framework.
  • Explore new technologies to enhance our products and improve functionality.
  • Plan upcoming work, manage release schedules, and assist with build pipeline automation.
  • Contribute to the maintenance of live systems by investigating and resolving issues.
  • Triage assigned software defects. Ensure that work on defect resolution does not impact on agreed product deliverables, reporting to Product Owner/Scrum Master where resolution will require renegotiation of deliverable dates for other tasks.
  • Pro-actively seek guidance from colleagues as required to ensure first time correct delivery and continual development of technical skills.
  • Ensure code reviews and unit testing are completed, and that these are consistently following departmental guidelines. Where no formal guidelines exist, work with peers to formulate and enforce such guidelines.
  • Timely and accurate reporting of assigned work status as required, reporting risks and issues as they arise.
  • Keep abreast of technology trends and how they apply to your area. Put forward suggestions for improvement to development processes or tools where applicable.
  • Achieve agreed productivity targets to ensure tasks are delivered to schedule, reporting as early as possible to Product Owner/Scrum Master where deliverables cannot be met.
  • Any other activities in support of the business which can reasonably be expected to fall within the capabilities of the employee.

At System C, we prioritise transparency in our job requirements and selection criteria, ensuring they are based solely on the essentials needed for effective job performance. We consciously avoid assumptions that could skew our perception of a candidate’s suitability for hire.

Our recruitment practices are designed to ensure that no applicant is unfairly disadvantaged by procedures or requirements that disproportionately affect protected groups without being essential for the job.

For every position, we develop a detailed job description and person specification. This approach maintains our focus on the true demands of the role and the skills, experience, and qualifications necessary. During interviews, we involve multiple interviewers where possible to further mitigate unintentional bias, thereby promoting a fair and equitable hiring process.
