Job Description
**ADP is hiring a Lead Application Developer.**
- Are you empathetic to client needs and inspired by transformation and impacting the lives of millions of people every day?
- Are you looking to join a dynamic, inclusive team environment with a culture of collaboration and belonging?
Well, this may be the role for you. Ready to design what's next?
In this role, you will work within a scrum team to bring the designs and ideas to life for new or improved web applications. This work will support a mix of internal and external clients. You will work with clients, product managers, architects, software engineers, and more to plan, design, develop, test, and implement impactful solutions that support 850k Small business clients across the USA.
You will start your day on a scrum call to prioritize and track work. Within the team you work on, you will choose user stories to work within a sprint cycle. You will spend most of your day developing and testing your code. Every three weeks, you will be involved in the release activities.
**To thrive in this development career, you'll need -**
- Be an expert in SQL Server, C#, .NET Framework 4.0, .NET 6+ and highlight scalable web applications.
- Have a firm grasp on OO concepts and be comfortable demonstrating how to apply these to your solutions.
- Have a firm grounding in Javascript and React.
- Have experience of embedding security from the earliest stages of development. We adopt a shift left approach to identifying and resolving vulnerabilities early in the pipeline.
- Understanding of the cyber security principles, methodologies and best practices, including knowledge of common threats using IriusRisk.
- You'll need to be familiar with web services, RESTful APIs, and industry standard event and queuing technologies like MSMQ RabbitMQ or KAFKA. Experience of VB6, C++, COM+, would also be beneficial to the role.
Each sprint cycle could have a heavy front-end focus, a heavy back-end focus, or a mix of both, so you'll need experience working with front-end, scripting, and back-end technologies. Like our best developers, you are an enthusiastic creator eager to learn and take on stretch assignments. You strive to learn new technologies and find ways to incorporate what you learn into building your products.
As a Senior Developer, you will work closely with your team to lead and guide projects to success. You'll have a hands-on role designing, developing, debugging, and deploying software solutions where you can leverage your expertise with code complexities. You'll also serve as a mentor to the junior developers. In the senior role, you will balance the assigning of user stories through prioritization and consideration of the technical interests of each developer on the team. As part of our team, you'll find exciting challenges, get opportunities to grow your career, and develop solid friendships as we design what's next for ADP and the industry. Pace should not scare you. We still find time for a healthy dose of fun.

**WHAT YOU'LL DO:**
Here's what you can expect on a typical day:
● Agile. You'll start each day with a scrum, working in a team to understand responsibilities, identify issues, and communicate coding priorities while choosing user stories to complete. You will also participate in other agile ceremonies, including scheduled sprint demos, where you will present your work to up to 90 stakeholders.
- Build Products. You will use your technical expertise to review your team's work and help your people excel in an Agile environment. You're proactive and hands-on. When you see a potential issue, you never leave things hanging and unfinished. When you and your team deliver a finished product, it's as polished as you could make it.
- Security - Understand and apply the ADP security program and policies to guide and mentor teams in best practices. You will coordinate and report on security activities, including threat and vulnerability management. Working closely with security champions, you will actively contribute to the reduction of vulnerabilities across the development lifecyle.
- Variety of work. There is no typical day. You could be checking in with a team in India one minute, meeting with leadership to review initiatives for the coming quarter later and tomorrow handling a few ad hoc requests from your peers in other departments.
- Influence and inspire confidence. You are comfortable presenting to senior leaders, product owners, and peers with a compelling voice that you demonstrate through executive presence, leading change, and creating clear executive-level communications on milestone achievements.
- Experience. You have 8-12 years of experience in relevant skills gained and developed in the same or similar role.
**TO SUCCEED IN THIS ROLE:**
- You'll have a Bachelor's degree OR equivalent.
**YOU'LL LOVE WORKING HERE BECAUSE YOU CAN:**
● Have courageous team collaboration. Courage comes from how associates are willing to have difficult conversations, speak up, be an owner, and challenge one another's ideas to find the best solution.
● Deliver at epic scale. We deliver real user outcomes using strong judgment and good instincts. We're obsessed with the art of achieving simplicity with a focus on client happiness and productivity.
● Be surrounded by curious learners. We align ourselves with other smart people in an environment where we grow and elevate one another to the next level. We encourage our associates to listen, stay agile, and learn from mistakes.
● Act like an owner & doer. Mission-driven and committed to leading change, you will be encouraged to take on any challenge and solve complex problems. No tasks are beneath or too great for us. We are hands-on and willing to master our craft.
● Give back to others. Always do the right thing for our clients and our community and humbly give back to the community where we live and work. Support our associates in times of need through ADP's Philanthropic Foundation.
