• Good organisational skills and the ability to work independently from agreed plans.

• A commitment to honest progress reporting, timely escalation of blockers, and clear documentation.

• A proactive approach to identifying reusable improvements and preventing recurring defects.

Desirable Experience

• Advanced familiarity with Claude Code, including skills, plans, and subagents.

• Experience with SaaS Pegasus or similar Django starter kits.

• Knowledge of Tailwind CSS, HTMX, and Alpine.js.

• Experience with Celery, Redis, and background processing.

• Familiarity with Stripe, Xero, Microsoft Graph, Microsoft 365, and SharePoint integrations.

• Experience with Docker, Render, or Azure Container Apps.

• Experience building AI-powered applications using Claude or OpenAI APIs, including prompts, structured outputs, and document extraction.

Responsibilities

Application & Feature Development

• Develop and maintain Python/Django applications, client automations, and SaaS product features based on agreed specifications and implementation plans.

• Establish new projects using the organisation's existing application foundation and install appropriate reusable components.

• Build user interfaces using established UI components, Django templates, Tailwind CSS, HTMX, and related technologies.

• Reuse existing functionality wherever possible and develop new components only when necessary.

AI-Assisted Software Development

• Use Claude Code as a core part of the development workflow to generate code, tests, and documentation.

• Translate requirements into structured specifications and step-by-step development plans before implementation.

• Guide AI-assisted development through manageable tasks, reviewing the output carefully at each stage.

• Identify and correct inaccurate, incomplete, or unsuitable AI-generated code before it reaches production.

• Apply sound technical judgement when evaluating implementation approaches and generated solutions.

Testing & Quality Assurance

• Write and execute automated tests using tools such as pytest and Playwright.

• Run relevant tests after each development task and ensure the complete test suite passes before delivery.

• Review higher-risk code involving financial transactions, permissions, data deletion, and security with particular care.

• Participate in code reviews, identify defects, and minimise avoidable rework through thorough validation.

Integrations & Deployment

• Integrate applications with external systems, including Xero, Microsoft 365, SharePoint, email platforms, and Stripe.

• Work with PostgreSQL, Redis, Celery, and other components of the existing technology stack.

• Deploy applications to Render and Azure Container Apps and troubleshoot issues affecting live systems.

• Support the development and maintenance of reliable integrations and automated business workflows.

Reusable Components & Continuous Improvement

• Investigate whether identified defects also affect existing application templates or reusable components.

• Apply appropriate fixes to shared components to prevent recurring issues across projects.

• Identify useful generic functionality and contribute it to the reusable component library.

• Improve development templates, testing practices, and implementation processes over time.

Documentation & Collaboration

• Maintain clear technical documentation, specifications, and implementation plans.

• Provide accurate progress updates and promptly raise blockers or tasks that exceed their estimates.

• Prepare written handover notes so work can be continued effectively by other team members.

• Follow established development, security, and code-review practices throughout the software delivery lifecycle.
