Software Engineers - Cardiff, South Wales, UK - Sorenson Media - On site, fulltime salaried role We're looking to hire multiple Software Engineers for roles which will be mostly writing Javascript, both server side and client side. You do not need any Javascript experience to apply (we've hired many people without it) we find it easier to teach good engineers Javascript then to teach Javascript developers good software engineering skills. We're hiring developers for 2 products, Spark Enlight: http://www.sorensonmedia.com/spark/enlight/ and Spark Enhance: http://www.sorensonmedia.com/spark/enhance/ We work in an Agile environment with daily Scrums, Retrospectives and 2 week sprints (though some teams have been experimenting with Kanban) and a real focus on the Engineering department owning the Engineering processes which means you get to spend your time writing code and have the autonomy to try changes to the processes and see if they work. We're looking for multiple engineers with a range of experience levels (from recent grads to Senior Developers) so I can't specify specific salaries but I think they tend to be higher than most other Cardiff companies. If any of this sounds interesting then feel free to contact me at mgrover@sorensonmedia.com with any questions, CVs, github profiles etc. Thanks - Matt

You will pair-program with developers to implement your ideas, as well as providing an expert voice in team discussions, and researching new technologies.
