Application Developer Review

DevOps Engineer on a large public sector project Agile environment Working with wide range of technologies: Docker, React, Python, Linux, Ansible, AWS, IBM MQ, SQL Work involves automation, innovation and general improvements

Yes - especially in Linux, Docker and AWS. Also further developed existing web dev skills.

Mostly enjoyable, especially the work that I am involved in. However, the apprenticeship course itself is not that enjoyable.

Good structure, poor content in the degree.

Good support from employer, able to address issues where needed

Good support from lecturers and others from the university. Helpful in answering question I have regarding modules, assignments etc

I feel the degree's specification does not help me much in my day-to-day work.

Plenty of social events available., but very dependent on your location.

Yes

Excellent company to gain real-world industrial experience, very multi-cultural, lots of different perspective and people to learn from, also good work-life balance.

Must be able to demonstrate your willingness to learn and adapt, also show what makes you stand out compared to others.
