Software Developer - 12 Month FTC

TTP is an employee-owned technology and product development consultancy, with a 40-year track record of helping ambitious clients solve complex technical challenges and bring innovative, commercially successful solutions to market.

We invent, design, and manufacture impactful products and technologies across a wide range of industries – including healthcare, life science, energy, and communications – and at the intersection of biology, physical science and engineering.

Our working culture encourages entrepreneurship, shared ideas and technical collaboration, while providing you with the freedom to do your best work.

This is an opportunity to join our IT team on a 12-month fixed-term contract to design and build software that has a direct and visible impact across TTP. It's a hands-on role where you'll create applications used across the business, with a focus on improving operational efficiency, connecting systems and making better use of data and AI.

The software tools you'll design and develop will be used every day, helping colleagues work more efficiently and make better decisions. You'll effortlessy translate practical needs into well-designed, reliable software. This includes building applications, integrating systems and creating tools that help teams access and use information more effectively.

Projects are varied, but are likely to include workflow tools, system integrations, and applications that make use of modern AI capabilities. You'll take ownership of delivery while working within TTP’s established software engineering environment, with support from our Software Team where needed.

It's an opportunity to work at the intersection of software, data and AI, with the freedom to shape solutions while being supported by an experienced engineering community.

You're a capable, experienced developer who enjoys building useful software and is comfortable working with a high degree of autonomy. You can take a problem, shape a solution and deliver working code, while engaging effectively with non-technical stakeholders.

You're likely to have experience in several of the following:

• Developing applications in one or more modern programming languages
• Building internal tools, workflow systems or data-driven applications
• Working with APIs, integrations and service-based architectures
• Using databases and SQL in application development
• Designing user-facing applications (web, desktop or mobile)
• Working across the full development lifecycle
• Applying new technologies pragmatically, including an interest in Generative AI

Experience working on internal systems within complex organisations, or in consultancy or professional services environments, would be beneficial.
