We also believe that pairing drives quality, learning, cross-skilling, and builds empathy with other developers - Sometimes we have to care about throughput and latency and so take this into account when writing code - See Dave Farley walk through how our CI pipeline works - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bHKHdp4H-8w Our needs: We are growing the team and are keen to encourage diversity of domain experience and background. We’re open-minded about your path to becoming a developer: we don’t require any particular academic or specific work experience, but we do expect you to have written code in a commercial setting.
