The Chancellor, Masters and Scholars of the University of Cambridge Vacancy Description

Software Development: Break software development activities down into logical units of work to enable sequencing and ensure the best possible structuring of activities to deliver a high-quality product right first time. Identify and report any impediments to software development activities and propose practical solutions. Identify and select the most appropriate technical solution, taking into consideration coding best practice and appropriate quality standards. Write logical and maintainable software solutions to meet the design and organisational coding standards (Software Development Lifecycle - Implementation and Build phase). Support delivery of one or more software deployment phases, such as trials and final release, to ensure that software developer outcomes are deployed correctly. Software Requirements: Convert customer requirements into technical requirements, both functional and non-functional to ensure that customers' expectations are accurately reflected in the software products developed. Communication: Report progress accurately throughout the development life-cycle stages to ensure adequate audit trails of key worksteps such that the organisation can demonstrate how the product has been created for quality and commercial purposes. Communicate software development solutions to a range of internal or external stakeholders to ensure clear understanding of requirements and how they have been met or adjusted. Security and Recovery: Consider security implications of proposed design to ensure that security considerations are built in from inception and throughout the development process. Apply security best practice to the software solution throughout the software development life cycle. Apply appropriate recovery techniques to ensure the software solution being developed is not lost (Software Development Lifecycle - Implementation and Build phase). Documentation: Create and maintain appropriate project documentation to explain the development process and resources used. Deliver a suitably documented deployable solution to the customer for their use (Software Development Lifecycle - Deploy phase). Change Control: Implement appropriate change control to ensure that software development changes may be tracked, and quality risks managed. Unit Testing: Undertake unit testing of solutions, with appropriate levels of test code coverage, to identify and, where necessary, resolve issues (Software Development Lifecycle - Implementation and Build phase). Perform testing of the software solution to ensure a high-quality output (Software Development Lifecycle - Test phase). Software Maintenance: Apply suitable 'bug fix', appropriate to the severity and priority of the software development issue identified. Professional Development: Practice continuous self-learning to keep up to date with technological developments to enhance relevant skills and take responsibility for own professional development.
