  • Ensure system security by developing software solutions in accordance with Shell guidelines such as firewalls, antivirus software, and access controls and maintaining minimum security training requirements for secure coding and application development;
  • Work with your squad to provide meaningful estimates of engineering effort and ensure the delivery of engineering effort to that estimate, ensuring timely, credible and successful completion of works, escalating risks to these outcomes in a timely fashion;

  • Agile Delivery Experience: Experience working in an Agile Software Development environment. This includes defining project scope, estimating work effort, allocating resources and managing stakeholder expectations to a credible plan;
  • Cloud Computing: Experience using cloud platforms, including AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud Platform. Knowledge of cloud services, deployment models, and best practices for cloud architecture and management;
  • Automation and DevOps: Experience with automation tools, configuration management (e.g., Ansible, Puppet, Chef), and continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines is crucial for streamlining;
  • Programming and Scripting: Proficiency in one or more programming languages such as Python, C#, or Typescript for scripting, automation and software development tasks;
  • Cybersecurity: Knowledge of cybersecurity principles, best practices and technologies, including encryption, access control, intrusion detection/prevention systems, penetration testing, threat intelligence and incident response procedures, is critical for protecting IT systems and data;
  • Virtualisation and Containerisation: Understanding virtualisation technologies (e.g., VMware, Hyper-V, KVM) and containerisation platforms (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes) enables efficient resource utilisation, scalability and deployment flexibility;
  • Database Management Systems (DBMS): Familiarity with relational databases (e.g., MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQL Server) and NoSQL databases (e.g., MongoDB, Cassandra) including database design, querying languages (e.g., SQL), replication, backup and recovery procedures is essential for managing data effectively; and
  • IT Service Management (ITSM): Knowledge of IT service management frameworks (e.g., ITIL, COBIT) and service delivery processes such as incident management, change management, problem management and service-level management, facilitates effective IT service delivery and alignment with Shell Energy’s business objectives.
