BI Developer - Iceland : Job Details

As one of the Best Big Companies to Work For, we have a rich history of loving our customers and looking after our teams. We understand that success is achieved through our people, and we are searching for a committed and passionate BI Developer to join our growing business.

Our Team

The Software Engineering team are well established at Iceland. We’ve delivered software solutions across many parts of the business and are a key function in delivering Iceland’s future. Iceland has a fairly unique stance when assessing technical solution requirements. We will generally lean towards writing in-house solutions rather than buy off-the-shelf. This ensures we can deliver a highly tailored solution that is fit for our purpose. This has led to a need to expand the team as we continue to increase our portfolio of solutions developed by the team.

The roadmap is an exciting mixture of greenfield projects and continuous improvement, upgrading our existing estate of applications to the latest technologies and architecture. There’s a wealth of experience within the team and there’s always someone willing to offer their support and knowledge.

The team has grown significantly over recent years and as a result we’ve reorganised ourselves into smaller agile squads which each manage their own workstream and champion the business domains they work with.

Applications developed by the team are used through-out our business by all of our 30,000+ colleagues, so scalability and resilience are key to everything we do. Continuous integration and deployment have been fully adopted to automate code releases which gives our team more confidence when releasing code into production environments.

• Work closely with your agile squad of developers, BA’s and testers to collaborate on solution development.
• Follow our agile way of working by attending stand-up’s, sprint reviews, retrospectives, and design and planning sessions.

• You have a passion for tech and want to learn new things.
• You want experience with modern BI tools, such as MS Fabric and Power BI.
• You enjoy working across the full business intelligence tech stack.
• You love to make things better for people who use your reports.
