Mando Agency

Life at Mando Agency is fast-paced and we have high expectations of each other. We live and breathe the digital solutions we’re working on, and take our responsibilities to our customers very seriously. That doesn’t mean we’re machines though .... It’s really important to us that we have a culture of looking out for one another and create a positive environment for us all.

We've taken some time to think about who we are. Our internal values are the principles we benchmark ourselves against, as individuals and as a team. They align us and inform how we perform and guide the quality control of what we deliver. They are also values to inspire and encourage development of skills.

We are insightful, collaborative momentum makers - does this sound like you?

We’re looking for individuals to develop digital solutions using Sitecore, Episerver, Umbraco, c#, .NET Core and related technologies, to a high level of quality and in adherence to departmental standards and practices.

 Your qualities:

You are a diligent and dedicated senior developer who strives to get work right the first time. You enjoy the challenge of picking up new tools and technology platforms, and sharing what you know with others. You’re a pragmatic programmer who understands that development problems are about choices and trade-offs, and there is seldom one right answer.

Your responsibilities:

• Provide estimates of effort for solution implementation, at key points in the application lifecycle, for the purposes of cost proposals and project delivery planning.
• Timely and clear reporting on the status of project tasks and quickly and constructively escalating incomplete or ambiguous information that may affect project deadlines or quality.
• Communicating technical decisions and recommendations clearly and effectively to internal stakeholders.

TECHNICAL CONSULTANCY

• Object oriented analysis and design; design patterns and SOLID principles of OO development
