5 January 2010 by Rod McLaren
Mobbu designs, develops and delivers mobile and internet data services, principally for police forces and the public safety and security sector. Our consulting and product development businesses are growing, driven by our public sector domain expertise, our product design knowledge, and your skills as a developer. The majority of our work is building custom solutions for the BlackBerry mobile platform. We are an Agile/Scrum-oriented company and we favour running software developed by talented, well-organised developers.
Job Description
We’re looking for an intelligent and self-motivated individual who will become an integral part of our development team. Working alongside your mentor, you’ll need to show an aptitude in and constantly improve your understanding and knowledge of working high quality code in an Agile-Scrum environment.

- Iterate over and improve designs while implementing actual solution
- Version and Document implementations to company standards
- Manage multiple code bases at once
The role is based in Brighton, and some travel around the UK may occasionally be required.
About you
You are smart, you get things done, and you can communicate well. You understand that perfect is not as important as robust and stable. You keep up with new work in your field and participate in communities of practice online and elsewhere.
Due to organisational requirements you must be a UK resident and passport holder: we’ll need to be able to get you government security-cleared for some of our work.
Key Skills:
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills on all aspects of our working and process
- An affinity for programming/technology
- Willingness and initiative to constantly improve yourself and your team
- Java/C# intermediate level (majority of code base is in Java)
- Excellent OO concepts and understanding
- SQL
- Linux and Windows OS knowledge
- UML/Documentation
- Unit Testing/Test-Driven Design
Additional Skills:
- SVN/Versioning
- J2ME/Mobile experience
- OO Patterns
- Threads

- Other language knowledge – we’d like a well-rounded programmer
- IDE (Eclipse/Netbeans)
