You will mainly be working on internal projects, with external customer enhancements required from time to time.
You will be supporting with the development and testing process, and using appropriate authentication mechanisms, such as using prepared SQL, ZAP for testing of web applications and SonarLint for checking code. Although other programming languages will be in use, the company has a strong affiliation with Java, so you will be using this as the predominant coding language.
You will learn to identify and report any impediments to software development activities, and will become able to propose practical solutions to these, whilst applying appropriate recovery techniques as and when required and in line with business processes, to ensure that the software solutions being developed are not lost.
You will consider the security implications of proposed designs, to ensure that these are built in from inception and throughout the development process.
You'll be required to compile documentation on the tailored, working solutions being devised for use by others.
You will encounter software development issues, but will be given support by the mentor to overcome these, and demonstrations will be given to help you to understand the business' various new products and features, and you will support with resolving customer issues as necessary.
Over time, you will be able to estimate your own ability and timeframes for delivering work products.
