Summary

You could be treating your inside sales or sales development role in one of 2 ways.

You love being on the frontline of the company being a critical part of the Lead Generation engine of the business
For you, it's just a part of the journey towards something more Account Management focussed or managerial.

Either way - this assignment is something you'll want to learn more about.

Data is now more valuable than oil. We live in a world where every large enterprise will have some type of Data Strategy. Banks especially can transform data into revenue with the right approach.

However, the difficult part isn't creating the data, it's turning that data into actionable intelligence. After all, data without intelligence or action is just a cash burn.

This business does exactly that, it turns Data into intelligence in real time using Machine Learning technology. They work with large banks helping them optimise analytics from Fixed Income, Currencies and Commodities transactions and provide intelligence and insights.

Working with this type of client takes a certain type of Sales Machine. Longitudinal, Strategic and based on Value Creation.

We need 2 Sales Development Representative - the first ones in the business. Following strong success of an Account Executive hire we're now in a position to build a new Lead Gen machine which these SDRs will build.

This is a scaling business creating new Lead Gen processes, so, this isn't for the type of person who just want to crank a handle - we need someone who can help influence and tweak the process equally as much as they execute against it.

Using the Phone, Social and Email to generate Leads you need to be comfortable in finding people and generating relationships.

You don't need experience in Data and ML, but you do need to understand technology as a whole.

This role would be perfect for someone who wants to accelerate their career into Enterprise Sales or Deep Tech concepts.

Summary

Software Developer About Strategic Blue Founded in 2010, we are a financial services organisation specialising exclusively in cloud procurement, cost management and optimisation. We provide Cloud Financial Operations, “FinOps”, services to both commercial and public sector organizations, primarily in the UK and US, who buy the cloud services offered by AWS, Google and Microsoft.

Our FinOps services allow cloud customers to buy in the way they want, understand what they have bought and continually optimise cloud costs. Our customers benefit from additional discounts not possible directly from cloud vendors and can access free tools and services for which other vendors charge.

As financial experts in the cloud, we help organisations develop the sophistication of their cloud procurement, governance and assurance processes. We understand how to achieve the necessary integration between a customer’s technical and financial teams.

Main purposes of the job: Software Developers are expected to influence and implement the technical design of our software products, and strive to create products that are appropriate, robust, well tested, maintainable, and scalable.

Being at the early stages of their career, Software Developers are expected to spend time learning about the relevant technologies and systems in place.

As Software Developers progress, they should move beyond simply completing defined tasks, and become more conscious of the bigger picture, taking on initiatives that drive a larger feature set.

Key tasks: ● Building and maintaining internal services written predominantly in Clojure ● Learning about Cloud Computing, Event Sourcing and Stream Processing ● Building modern front-ends in ClojureScript/Reagent ● Collaborating with our product people to define requirements

Key objectives: ● Deliver new product features as required, initially by completing clearly-defined

tasks and communicating when something is blocking, and eventually by actively participating in the planning, design, and breakdown sessions.

● Learn the relevant technologies and systems in place, and become familiar with our product domains.

● Gain an understanding of cloud computing, and pass some relevant certifications.

● Gain/share knowledge by pairing with other developers and supporting them in their work.

● Communicate internally and externally in a respectful manner, and listen to the priorities and concerns of others, acknowledging differing perspectives and anticipating others’ reactions.

● Make an impact by delivering features, refactoring existing code, being responsive to ad-hoc requests, and enabling other developers to be successful.

● Help to debug technical problems, and raise issues so that we can improve our service.

● Review other developers’ work and give feedback, being respectful, thorough, thoughtful, flexible, and not pedantic.

Technical/Job Specific skills: Experience in any of the following will be useful but is not essential

● Relevant languages and their libraries: Clojure, Java, ClojureScript, JavaScript, HTML, and CSS

● Relevant supporting technologies: AWS (IAM, S3, Fargate, CloudFormation), PostgreSQL, Docker

● Working in a CI / CD type environment (we use Concourse CI - experience with Concourse would be a benefit but not a requirement)

● Working in a predominantly agile development workflow

Person specification: A Software Developer will be:

● keen to learn ● able to communicate their ideas clearly ● comfortable questioning and discussing existing choices ● pragmatic in your approach to design and technical debt

Typically the Software Developer role requires 0-2 years of professional experience.

Reporting to: Head of Software Development

Benefits: ● Competitive salary ● Bonus scheme ● Annual individual training budget ● Flexible working ● Private medical insurance from day one ● Benefit scheme which provides cashback on dental, opticians, massages and

physiotherapy from day one ● An annual training budget ● Pension benefit scheme ● Fun company events both virtual and in-person ● 25 days holiday + bank holidays
