[JOBS] The Data St\ndards Authority is (still) looking for developers

[Charles Baird]

Hi NWRUG!

I messaged you in mid-May about some developer  opportunities at the Data Standards Authority, which is part of the Central Digital and Data Office in the Cabinet Office. We had a really good set of responses to the more senior role, but we're still looking for some mid-level developers to join the team. We've got quite a few different strands of work, but most relevantly we're trying to turn the fledgling Government API Catalogue (https://api.gov.uk) into a real discovery layer for APIs across the public sector, to drive innovation and better services for citizens.

Job ad is here:

But in summary we're looking for enthusiastic generalists, paying up tpo £57k, with a hybrid approach to working that will be predominantly home based, but with links to one of the Cabinet Office hubs in London, Bristol or Manchester. We've got a very flat structure so there will be a real chance for the right candidate to shape government approaches to interesting problems around data and APIs.

Do please give me a shout with any questions - I think this is a really exciting opportunity, although I would say that. The closing date is Monday, so not loads of time, but happy to answer any questions in the meantime.

Thanks,

Charles
