Software programmer jobs at EPAM
Software developers are specialists with the widest employment opportunities. In each separate area, certain skills of these programmers may be requested. If a software developer works for a healthcare company, then they must ensure the confidentiality of information. In many areas, there are certain laws that must be considered when developing software.
Job description
The main task of this specialist is to develop software for the company or for the project they’re working on. Most often, software programming jobs indicate which language the specialist should code in. But writing software is not the only responsibility. A programmer must also be able to check their own code and that of their colleagues, and make their work easy for other developers to understand. These specialists increasingly work from home, but their duties and requirements have not changed.
What are the duties of a software programmer?
Very often, the duties depend on the area in which the programmer will work, and in what language the code will be written. But usually, they are as follows:
- Create software applications.
- Test and deploy digital products.
- Ensure that the product goes through the entire life cycle (SDLC).
- Write clean, efficient code.
- Maintain documentation at each stage of work.
- Ensure the regularity of the implementation of tasks.
- Collaborate with other professionals to ensure that digital product requirements are met.
- Participate in meetings (in the case of remote work, ensure the fastest possible appearance on a call to the company's office).
Such tasks may vary slightly from company to company, but they are the basics of every software developer job.
Basic requirements for candidates for software programmer jobs
Although programmers at their jobs solve similar problems, they work in different programming languages. These are the universal requirements for software programming jobs:
- Relevant education
- Thorough knowledge of one or more programming languages
- Thorough knowledge of one or more scripts (Python, Ruby, PHP, or JavaScript)
- Backend development experience
- Experience with cloud services
- Git knowledge
- Knowledge of Gradle and Maven build tools
- Thorough knowledge of Linux OS
With such skills, any programmer can find a decent and interesting job. But in order to stay in the workplace, grow and develop, they must also have a certain set of personal qualities.
Jobs in software programming: soft skills
Even in remote work, a programmer is a member of the team. It can be a permanent team or it can change from project to project, so the ability to establish and maintain connections is important. Also, software developers must be organized, collected, punctual, accurate, and attentive to details.
