ITV are looking for a strong Scala developer to  be part of our Content Delivery development team.
 
You will be knowledgeable about programming, and enthusiastically maintain that expertise. You are comfortable pair programming and skilled in using TDD and BDD to deliver well factored, loosely coupled software. You must work well with both technical and non-technical team members, and should also have knowledge and experience of different agile delivery techniques.
 
More importantly, you will understand when and why various technical and delivery methodologies are useful, you know what good architecture looks like, and you’re able to persuade a team about its benefits. You are comfortable mentoring more junior members of a team.
 
The ideal candidate will have an excellent knowledge of the design, implementation and use of REST and message based services.
 
Our technology stack includes:
 
●      Scala, and some Java and Groovy (Grails)
●      MySQL
●      Vagrant and Puppet
●      RabbitMQ for messaging
●      GitHub
 
ITV uses Google Apps, and each developer gets a MacBook Pro or Air.
 
We encourage our teams to be autonomous and self-organising. If you like large management structure and being told what to do then this won’t be for you. However if you want to play a key part within our exciting Technology and Platforms team, helping to transform the way ITV works, come and join us and apply here now.
 
Essential requirements:
●      Strong commercial experience of server-side Java or Scala
●      Practical knowledge of Scala, or other functional language
