Job description
KPMG Overview :
KPMG is part of a global network of firms that offers Technology, Consulting, Audit, Tax & Pensions and Deal Advisory
services. Through the talent of over 16,000 colleagues, we bring our creativity and insight to our clients' most
critical challenges.

With offices across the UK, we work with everyone from small start-ups and individuals to major multinationals, in
virtually every industry imaginable. Our work is often complex, yet our vision is simple: to be the clear choice for our
clients, for our people and for the communities we work in.

The Team:
We are the team of engineers (dev, devops, secops, data) and data scientists supported in our work by other teams and
capabilities from across whole business (PMs, Scrum coaches, architects, various SMEs).

You might think of us as one of the world's largest accountancy firms. But there's so much more to what we do.
As an integral member of our team, you'll work with expert Business Analysts and subject matter experts to shape
solutions for everything from a client facing portal for sharing information, to implementing complex algorithms to
automate data transformation and make it highly available to the clients. Thanks to our growth plans for the products
and the team, your future here is something to get excited about.

Global clients and world-class colleagues.

As an integral member of our diverse team, you'll work with expert UX Designers and Business Analysts to shape apps for
everything from online banking to predictive analytics and reactive dashboards.

Our technology:
Our existing core competency is Python and React development stack and we are in the process of introducing Golang.
We are developing on Google Cloud Platform utilising VertexAI, Dataflow, Cloudbuild, GKE, BQ, Cloud Composer
and more. We pride ourselves on delivering highly modular, testable, scalable, SOLID code with continuous integration
and deployment to cloud environments. We follow agile methodologies and fully automated Git workflow.
We welcome developers with experience in other environments (AWS, Azure) who are happy to bring their experiences on
board. As part of our rigorous recruitment process, we'll thoroughly test your ability to code and design scalable
systems with peerless precision, quality and clarity.
As a member of the team, you'll be expected to keep up to date with the tech field. We gladly sponsor certifications and
training courses.

The Role:
Our front-end core competency is ReactJS. We pride ourselves on delivering highly modular, testable, scalable code with
continuous integration and deployment to cloud environments. We follow agile methodologies and a Git workflow.
You will be working alongside our UX designers and backend developers to create great software for internal and external
clients.

As a member of the team, you'll be expected to keep up to date with the tech field. We gladly sponsor certifications and
training courses.

The Person:
Essential Experience and Skills
• ReactJS

• Redux, ImmutableJS
• React router
• CSS Pre-processing tools (SASS, LESS)
• Package management (npm, Bower, Yarn)
• Team collaboration tools and source control (Git, JIRA)
• React oriented testing frameworks (Jest, Enzyme)
• JavaScript type safety (TypeScript, Flow)
• Web optimisation techniques (Bundling, compression, minifying etc)
• Deployment and hosting of front end projects using CI and CD
• Ability to collaborate on API design and consumption

Desirable Experience and Skills:

The best of both worlds:
We might be world leaders, but in many ways the department feels like a start-up, with a twist. There's the buzz of
scrum working, the thrill of shaping compelling experiences, the chance to surprise and stretch yourself in response to
a fresh challenge. And then there's all the resources, technology and high profile projects of a major corporate entity.
Crucially, we also offer the benefit of clear career progression.
