About The Role
As a development team we all work closely, pair programming, white-boarding and architecting as a team and peer reviewing every line of code. We have fun while we work and are passionate about technology. We work in an agile way, using the Scrum framework to deliver value to our customers.
We have a flat structure at Mayden. Our team members work jointly to share the responsibilities that managers would traditionally have. Nobody tells you how to do your job, we’re all here to assist each other, not get in each other’s way.
The development team works with the product owner team to prepare work for sprints. We work with our account managers to give our customers the best possible experience and we work with our ops team to make sure our apps are stable and running well.
Skills and experience:
Our current tech stack includes (but isn’t limited to) PHP, Slim Framework, JavaScript, React and MySQL. We don’t need you to have experience with these specifically, as long as you have commercial experience with other modern programming languages.
You should be able to demonstrate your experience with MVC frameworks and/or modern JavaScript frameworks.
Here are some other things that are important to us and our customers, you don’t have to have experience in all of these, just a willingness to learn:
- Accessibility best practices and standards when working on the front end
- Testing frameworks
- Software design best practices
- Source control, specifically Git
Successful candidates will:
- be passionate about the work we do as well as the technology we use
- enjoy working closely with both technical and non technical colleagues
- be comfortable with pair programming and with code being peer reviewed
- take a positive and proactive approach to problem solving both with their team and the wider company
- be keen to learn as well as to contribute to the development of others
- be comfortable working through problems with a team
Please note:
We use AI tools internally and externally as part of our work, we support our clients to use them thoughtfully, and we know many candidates will use them too. When used well, AI can be a helpful support to, but not a replacement for, human thinking, creativity or judgement.
We strongly encourage applicants to ensure their applications authentically reflect their own experience and capability. Our recruitment decisions are always made by people. We're interested in your skills, your curiosity, and how you approach problems.
If you choose to use AI tools for formatting or assistance, please use them ethically and responsibly, make it clear how and where you have used them, and take care to review and personalise your application accordingly.
How to apply
Please do upload the following on to the portal when you are applying:
A covering letter describing your interest in the role, what you are passionate about and what you think you would bring to the team and to Mayden. (We do read these and enjoy hearing about you and your interests).
Your CV (all those amazing things you achieved and done)
A copy of your passport and if required your share code and date of birth. We need to have evidence that you are eligible to work in the UK.
Please note: Applications will not be put forward if the above are missing.
This role is not eligible for sponsorship by Mayden for a skilled worker visa. We are therefore unable to accept applications from individuals who would require an employer to sponsor them for a work permit.
Benefits:
We offer a great working environment with an excellent package of benefits including:
- monthly developer lunches (we’ll bring the pizza)
- quarterly hack days
- personal training budget for professional development
- free onsite gym
- company pension
- 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays, (with the option to buy or sell annual leave after probation is completed)
- private health insurance
- life assurance
Collaboration is one of our four company values - we work best together. We believe there is significant benefit from working face to face when doing so. At the same time, some work may be carried out just as effectively alone and away from the office. We have therefore created a flexible ‘place of work’ policy that asks everyone to be where the work of the day is best completed and overall spend enough time in the office with others to maintain relationships and communication.
This means there are no fixed days, or number of days, when you should be in the office or can work at home. In any given week you may need to work from the office everyday or no days! It all depends on the work being done and you are expected to be flexible. Many people find this approach means they work in the office 3 or more days a week but this varies according to role and the work they have to do.
Our Place of Work policy is available on request.
