Skills/Person
You don’t need a lot of experience, but you do need to have a genuine passion and talent for programming. It would be great if you have some exposure to web development using for instance LAMP, .NET, Rails, Python or similar, but the most important thing is that you can look at a technical problem and just know how to solve it. So if you wake up in the morning with code on your mind and the burning question ‘ How can I…?’ We really would like to hear from you.
Not quite you?
Here at Arcus we are always on the look out for talent and innovation. So if your career to date doesn’t fit nicely into any of our listed vacancies drop us a line highlighting your areas of interest and how you think they could help us achieve our vision.
All the best
Arcus
