Are you an exceptionally talented, front end focused full stack ‘Creative’ Developer ready for your next challenge? Do you have an interest in Augmented Reality? 

You’ll be working with the University of Lincoln and Starglaze Windows and Conservatories Limited to support the development of an augmented reality App, utilising cutting edge technology to help realise our business objectives. The role is to work as the KTP Associate on a Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP).

In addition, a budget of up to £4,000 will be made available for your professional development. Hybrid working will be considered but weekly travel to Lincoln will be necessary. 

We are looking for a passionate, open-minded, and talented team player who loves to be challenged. We ask for a good understanding and demonstrable portfolio of user-centred design, UX and software development methodologies. Although Graphic and UI design skills are preferable, you should be a proficient computer programmer who can develop code to operate on both front- and back-end systems. You should be comfortable around both front-end and back-end coding languages, development frameworks and third-party libraries. You should also be a team player with an eye for visual design and utility.
