Web and Software Development Jobs

No Need To Look Elsewhere For The Latest Web Developer Vacancies In The UK

It's safe to say that since its humble origins, the web development industry has come a long way. Today it's one of the biggest (and most diverse) areas within the digital industry and employs hundreds of thousands of talented programmers and developers, not just in the UK, but all around the world. And no one can accuse the web development industry of being dull. From the excitingly named Flash (ahh ahhhhhh!) and Ruby on Rails to the more old-school things like HTML, Java, SQL and PHP, web development languages are extremely diverse - and with new ones being created every week, there's no chance of getting bored.

Hmm, so apart from working with cool-sounding things like Python, Perl, .Net and Unix, what do web developers actually do? Well, like we said before, web development jobs are extremely varied. From building back-end customer databases with things like SQL and MySQL to creating RSS and XML feeds and creating amazing all-singing, all-dancing websites with CSS and HTML, web developers do it all - and they also get to create exciting mobile apps and deal with complicated server and network issues too! Like the sound of web developer employment? You'll be glad to hear the industry is going from strength to strength thanks to the online revolution so web development jobs are always up for grabs and Bubble can help!

Secure The Best New Software Developer Jobs At Bubble

In addition to being proficient in a range of programming languages, like C#, Ruby and Java, web and software developers are also required to be experts in a whole host of software programs and operating systems. From obvious things like Windows and iOS to more niche areas like Linux, Unix and Ubuntu, software developers get to work with a number of different operating systems on a daily basis so a diverse knowledge and lots of experience is a must if you're looking to bag a job in this area! Alongside operating systems, web developers also get to work with a range of both online and offline software programs, including online CMS systems like WordPress and Drupal and various eGaming and graphics programs. 

Is that everything? Well actually no it's not (I told you web developers had lots to do!). Alongside being a programming pro and a software star, web and software developers are also required to work in a range of different environments. Huh? Let me explain - when it comes to web developers working together as part of a team, there are certain styles of working. I'm talking about Agile and SCRUM methodologies. Agile software development is all to do with collaborative working between self-organising, cross functional teams. With Agile working, projects are normally broken down into small tasks, with every team working on each part of the task - planning, requirements, design, coding and unit testing - with Agile working, it's all about team work! SCRUM is another kind of Agile software development and with SCRUM the focus is all on project management where it's difficult to plan ahead. Tasks are broken up into 'sprints' and are carried out by a cross-functional team who are usually managed or 'coached' by a SCRUM master - complicated eh?
