Connect to your opportunity

Are you able to guide defence users through complex technology challenges, and rapidly develop new solutions to meet defence needs? We are looking for individuals to help digitise defence with new thinking on technology capabilities and adoption processes, and someone who is sensitively able to combine the latest thinking with traditional military functions.

You will guide our clients through their digital journey from strategy through to a working and breathing environment supporting their most critical services.

Building robust and scalable digital platforms that enable teams to deliver modern micro-services based and digital solutions to continuously improve environments through automation and infrastructure-as-code.

You will work with colleagues across back and front-end developers, creatives and UX experts, integration teams and the client themselves. You will also:

• Help deliver features end to end. We don't throw our work "over the wall," everyone is expected to pull together to design new features and figure out bugs
• Deliver cloud native and containerised applications using technologies including AWS Lambda, Spring Boot, NodeJS, PostgreSQL, MongoDB and ELK
• Build solutions as part of a DevOps and Agile ecosystem supported by tooling including Atlassian, Jenkins, OWASP and AWS componentry
• Ensure your solution works in a reliable and resilient way across thousands of users and multiple sites and use Site Reliability Engineering methods to keep the solution working whatever is thrown at it
• Help the client and end users to understand trade-offs when making product decisions and explain why you would do things a certain way
• Keep learning! We have a great community of architects and back-end developers who run workshops together, share the best articles they find on Slack, and contribute to the engineering culture
• Have the opportunity to go beyond standard duties and responsibilities to champion small details, spot opportunities and add extra value for our clients

Connect to your skills and professional experience

All applicants must hold a DV (Developed Vetting) clearance to apply.

Overall, you're an ideas person and problem solver as well as a hands-on doer - that's important. And you know it takes a mix of people to do amazing work, so you love collaborating with and learning from people with different skills, backgrounds and perspectives. If you have an interesting or unusual mix of skills yourself, even better.

We're looking for people who are natural initiative-takers who bring out the best in others, are brilliant listeners and can help us grow our business without compromising standards, integrity or culture.

You'll also have:

• Experience in software development and an evident passion for writing code
• An understanding of the fundamentals of software development in Java, TypeScript, JavaScript and/or Python, along with good overall engineering patterns and practices and be able to explain these clearly
• Demonstrable experience and understanding of working in teams, particularly in agile methodologies such as Scrum & Kanban

Personal independence

Regulation and controls are standard practice in our industry and Deloitte is no exception. These controls provide important legal protection for both you and the firm. We are subject to a number of audit regulations, one of which requires that certain colleagues abide by specific personal independence constraints (e.g., in relation to any financial interests and employment relationships). This can mean that you and your "Immediate Family Members" are not permitted to hold certain financial interests (shares, funds, bonds etc.) with audit clients of the firm, and also prohibitions on certain employment relationships (e.g., you are not permitted to hold a secondary employment role with SEC audit clients of the firm whilst being employed by the firm). The recruitment team will provide further detail as you progress through the recruitment process or you can contact the Independence team upon request.

Connect with your colleagues

“What attracted me to Deloitte were the endless opportunities and the collective experience of other like-minded individuals. Deloitte's clients include many of the world's largest organisations; I wanted to be part of a team that made a difference that I could be proud of."
