We have a position open for hands-on operations specialists keen to help us improve our infrastructure and platforms and who wants to work with a team currently in love with DevOps and getting a bit obsessed with automating everything.
7digital Ltd. is a leading digital media delivery company based in London and operating globally.
Half the organisation is made up of tech people (Devs, DBA, Systems etc) and our CEO is a geek. We’ve got good at delivering our products and services at a fast pace in an iterative manner, but the faster we move the more apparent it is we need to be able to change our infrastructure just as quickly and reliably. We need super-talented and enthusiastic Web Ops/Sys Admins who are keen to work in a highly collaborative manner with our other tech staff to build a more robust, reliable and more highly automated platform which can cope with scaling up to meet the ever increasing demand.
We run a mix of Unix and Windows platforms – we’re pretty technology agnostic and are looking for people who aren’t religious about one platform or another, but more interested in being given the opportunity to solve interesting problems with other smart, passionate people. The work opportunities are broad:
Particularly, we have big aspirations to improve the automation of everything in our stack, we’ve made great progress already this year, but still feel we’ve only just begun. We’re big fans of companies like Etsy and Netflix and also want to view things from a “full-stack” perspective with tight collaboration between developers and operations people to achieve this goal.
There’s a sane, paid, out-of-hours on-call rota (for emergencies only) which currently runs 1-week-in-4. It won’t ever get more frequent than that. This job does not involve IT Support; we already have people who are great at that.
Many we already use, some we’re trialling, some we’re keen on trialling. You don’t need to know them all, but if you have experience with many of these, things are looking promising.

There are normally 3 stages:
We're looking for a SQL Developer/BI Developer who likes to dabble in Database Administration. You should like the idea of working with really big, fast things and making them go faster; and doing it all the right way.
You’re going to have a spark about you which tells us you’re not some run-of-the-mill jobsworth. You will be charismatic and enthusiastic and have the type of personality which means you get on well with people. You hate people who whinge and moan about things, but don’t do anything about it – when you see a problem you go out of your way to solve it. You don’t see the business as your enemy, you care about doing a good job and doing the right thing by the organisation you work for.
7digital Ltd. is a leading digital media delivery company based in London and operating globally.

For BI development, we’re building a greenfield data warehouse and management information system using SQL Server 2012 Enterprise , SSIS, SSRS, SSAS and anything else that will make this thing fly. On the DBA side we need someone who’s experienced with managing transactional replication, security, backups and upgrades and who would also be happy supporting and working with the development team – and others in the organisation – maintaining, configuring and making modifications to our databases.
We’re a very collaborative organisation and really big on Agile practices, so an exposure to those kind of environments and being happy to work in that manner would be great.
Among other things the role would entail:
Creating, designing and maintaining databases to best practices in a sustainable manner
Providing guidance and advice on best practice and how we can improve our data storage.
Helping to refactor some of our larger and older databases.
Assisting in managing multiple instances of SQL server across production, QA and development environments.

Why you think you’re suitable for 7digital and why you’d particularly want to work with us (not some generic response please).
Which blogs (if any) you read on a regular basis, or people you follow on Twitter.
Any communities & events you attend or are involved with.
What books (if any) you’ve read and if there are any that have particularly stood out.
Links to Twitter/LinkedIn/personal websites/blogs (because we’ll find them anyway so it saves us some time).
7digital are looking for smart, self-motivated software developers to join our truly exceptional development team. Good working TDD experience is essential for this role.
Among other things we’re strong advocates of TDD. We think it represents such a particular mindset we’d only consider you for a senior position if you have significant working experience with it. If you do have working experience with TDD, great! We want to know more. How much? How did you do TDD? How have you used TDD on a recent project? What problems have you faced? The more the better!
Our teams are cross-functional, self-organising and highly autonomous. No architects, project managers or middle management, you’ll be working directly with our Product Managers and stakeholders in a highly collaborative manner. This approach requires a huge amount of teamwork and maturity and is not right for everyone, but we believe it’s the best way to create great software.
Among other things, Pair Programming, TDD/BDD, Refactoring, and Continuous Delivery are deeply embedded and we’re constantly striving to improve the way we work. We know typing is not the bottleneck, so among other things:
However, we’re not perfect and not afraid to say so. We recognise we have many problems which need solving and a long way to go on our journey of continuous improvement.
Most of our stack is C#/.Net but we’re using and investigating many other languages and technologies (e.g. Ruby, server side JavaScript, C++, Python). We’d be interested in candidates from any background as long as you have a keen understanding of Object Oriented languages. Here’s a (not exclusive) list of technologies we currently use:
We’re also very keen on open source. We contribute to some of the technologies listed above as well as maintaining our own forks (+ publishing other things we’d like to share) on our GitHub account.
Please, no agencies. Any CVs submitted via agencies will be ignored.
If you’re interested, send an email with your CV and a cover note to michelle.flynn@7digital.com, ensuring that the subject field contains the following text: “7digital: I am applying for Senior Developer”.
If not on your CV, your cover note should include:
If we’re impressed by your CV and covering letter we’ll initially bring you in for a pair programming exercise (in C#, takes about 1 hour). If that goes well you’ll have one or two face-to-face interviews with some of our developers and the Head of Development.
You may not have much (or any) working experience with TDD & Agile practices, but you want to work somewhere that passionately believes in them.
About you
Experience otherwise is relative – 2 years working in an agile/XP manner is worth much more to us than 5 in a traditional environment. If you don’t have working experience with things like TDD and refactoring (maybe you’ve always wanted to but your current job doesn’t allow for it) show us you’re at least familiar with the concepts and that you really want to work in this kind of environment and you’re still in with a good chance.
