Overview
We are supporting a consultancy in the public sector looking for a Back-End Developer to help build, scale and maintain backend services underpinning citizen-facing and internal systems. This is a hands-on engineering role with real ownership over infrastructure as well as code, so you'll be just as comfortable in Terraform and AWS as you are writing TypeScript.

Work closely with product owners, architects and other engineers to translate requirements into robust technical solutions
Monitor system performance and reliability, and proactively resolve issues before they impact users
Contribute to technical decisions around architecture, tooling and best practice
Support security and compliance requirements relevant to public sector systems
Document technical decisions and processes clearly for the wider team
Key Requirements
Strong commercial experience with TypeScript in a back-end context
Solid hands-on AWS experience (e.g. Lambda, ECS, RDS, S3, IAM)
Proven DevOps background, including building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines
Practical Terraform experience across real production environments
Comfortable working independently in a remote-first setup, with the flexibility to travel to Leeds monthly
Strong understanding of secure coding practices and cloud security fundamentals
Desirable
Python experience, particularly for scripting, automation or data-related tasks
Previous experience working on Government or NHS/public sector digital programmes
Familiarity with GDS standards or working within regulated environments
