• Solid Javascript skills
• Knowledge of the browser technologies, including the DOM, HTTP, HTML and CSS

• Experience working with modern AI tooling and processes

• Simplicity
• Shipping fast, sustainably
• Ownership
• Be excellent to each other
• Communication makes us stronger

Desirable

• As a Javascript Software Engineer you will be working alongside our global support and implementation teams to capture requirements and implement a custom script layer for each new client
• You’ll need to quickly understand each new client’s website and implement solutions using Javascript, so we expect candidates to have good experience of working with Javascript
• You’ll also work with our clients to refine their script layers over the lifetime of the client’s relationship with Dotdigital. Your work will have a direct and lasting impact to our customers, with your work executing on millions of browsers daily
• This is a role with a potential progression path to a wider Software Engineering role; we’d love to see you grow with us and optimize the script development workflow
• Working in the Product Engineering team, you’ll work alongside Product Managers, Quality Assurance Engineers, and many other talented people. We ship regularly, with automated deployments at the click of a button, and when you join us, we want you to ship code to production in your first sprint
• We prioritise customer success; and we’re rigorous about security at every stage of the development lifecycle. Some of our problems are unique to large software – dealing with large datasets, maintaining very high throughput, and 24/7 platform uptime

• 15min screening call with our talent team
• A quick online technical test in Javascript, which should about an hour
• You’ll join a video call with two people from our engineering team and we’ll chat tech, your previous experience. This will take around an hour
• We’ll have a final video interview, with at least one of our Group Engineering Managers involved. We’ll talk tech and projects again, but we really encourage questions during this phase. We’re happy to discuss our tech stack, our ambitions, current problems, our processes, or anything else that’s on your mind – nothing’s off limits
