Specific Skills
MI5 are looking for a Software Engineer with great experience in multiple programming languages including:
- HTML
- CSS
- JavaScript
- C++
- Python
Having the ability to use multiple programming languages is a specific skill for a Software Engineer as it applies directly to their job. A Software Engineer could demonstrate their ability to manipulate the use of multiple programming languages by submitting a portfolio or previous work or by working on a multi-language demo project.
General Skills
An ideal candidate would have exceptional Problem Solving, Punctuality and Time Management skills with the ability and willingness to adapt and take on new challenges.
Problem Solving is a general skill as it applies to many different roles in many different jobs. It is relevant to Software Engineers as they must have the ability to troubleshoot bugs in the programs they create.
Soft Skills
Furthermore, an ideal candidate would be approachable, able to explain issues to clients in the interests of taking preventative measures and be a strong team worker.
A Software Engineer may be called upon from time to time to assist colleagues in configuring or troubleshooting a PC. If you do not have an approachable attitude, colleagues may feel they can't turn to you when they need assistance. This is not ideal because it also impacts on your ability to work efficiently in a team.
Candidates MUST be able to pass a CRB check and a Class II medical.
