Senior Developer

Overview

A hands-on, individual contributor role building, supporting and improving enterprise-grade Blue Prism automation solutions across their full lifecycle. This is not a delivery-management, project-management or people-management position.

What you'll do

• Design, build, test, deploy and support complex enterprise automation solutions using Blue Prism.
• Own automation solutions across their complete lifecycle, including discovery, feasibility assessment, design, development, release, production support, optimization and retirement.
• Develop reusable, scalable and maintainable Blue Prism processes and business objects.
• Work extensively with Process Studio, Object Studio, Control Room, Work Queues, Schedules, Credentials, Environment Variables, Releases and Runtime Resources.
• Design robust exception-handling, recovery, retry, logging, alerting and operational-support frameworks.
• Troubleshoot complex automation failures across Blue Prism, applications, databases, APIs, virtual machines, credentials and infrastructure components.
• Perform root-cause analysis for recurring production issues and implement permanent technical fixes.
• Monitor live automations, analyse operational performance, and improve stability, resilience, recoverability and throughput.
• Design automation architecture for new and existing processes, including component design, integration patterns, deployment models and support models.
• Review and refactor poorly designed, unstable or difficult-to-maintain automation solutions.
• Integrate Blue Prism with web applications, Windows applications, Java applications, mainframe systems, Citrix environments, APIs, databases, file systems, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft Outlook and enterprise platforms.
• Build and consume REST and SOAP services and work with XML, JSON, authentication, certificates, tokens and secure credentials.
• Work closely with infrastructure, architecture, information security, database, application-support and business teams to resolve technical dependencies.
• Support Blue Prism environment upgrades, migrations, configuration changes, patching, capacity planning and platform improvements.
• Participate in technical design reviews and challenge solutions that are not scalable, secure, supportable or operationally resilient.
• Create clear technical documentation, including solution designs, operational runbooks, deployment instructions, support procedures and troubleshooting guides.
• Conduct technical code reviews and enforce Blue Prism engineering standards and reusable design patterns.
• Support release, change, incident and problem-management activities for production automations.
• Contribute to automation engineering standards, platform governance, reusable frameworks and Centre of Excellence practices.
• Evaluate and learn additional technologies that complement Blue Prism and improve automation capability.
• Work hands-on with adjacent technologies such as APIs, SQL, scripting, cloud services, monitoring and platform tooling.
• Take full technical ownership of assigned solutions without relying on separate development, support or architecture teams to solve core engineering problems.
• Continuously expand technical capability by learning and applying multiple technologies based on business and platform needs.

What you'll need

• 7+ years of overall technology experience, with substantial hands-on experience developing enterprise automations using Blue Prism.
• At least 5 years of recent, continuous, hands-on Blue Prism development experience.
• Strong practical expertise in Blue Prism Process Studio and Object Studio.
• Deep understanding of Blue Prism application modelling, spying techniques, dynamic attributes, wait stages, collections, work queues, environment variables, credentials, schedules, sessions and runtime resources.
• Demonstrated experience building complex Blue Prism solutions rather than only maintaining, monitoring or coordinating automation projects.
• Strong experience supporting Blue Prism automations in production environments.
• Proven ability to diagnose failures involving Blue Prism, target applications, virtual machines, databases, APIs, access permissions, credentials, certificates and infrastructure.
• Strong understanding of exception handling, retry design, recovery stages, logging, auditability, transaction management and operational resilience.
• Experience designing reusable Blue Prism components, frameworks, templates and utility objects.
• Strong understanding of enterprise automation architecture and the technical dependencies required to run Blue Prism at scale.
• Experience integrating Blue Prism with REST APIs, SOAP services, XML, JSON, databases, file systems and enterprise applications.
• Good working knowledge of SQL, including the ability to write queries, analyse data, troubleshoot database-related issues and support integrations.
• Experience with at least one programming or scripting technology such as C#, .NET, Python, PowerShell, JavaScript or VBA.
• Ability to read and troubleshoot code, scripts, API payloads, logs, configuration files and database queries.
• Experience automating browser-based, desktop, Java, Citrix, virtual desktop and legacy applications.
• Understanding of Blue Prism infrastructure, including application servers, interactive clients, runtime resources, databases, virtual machines, connectivity and environment configuration.
• Experience with production monitoring, incident management, problem management, change management and release management.
• Strong understanding of SDLC, Agile delivery, release controls, security controls and enterprise development standards.
• Ability to independently convert business requirements into technically sound automation designs.
• Ability to assess automation feasibility, identify technical risks, estimate complexity and recommend practical solutions.
• Strong debugging, analytical and root-cause-analysis skills.
• High level of ownership and willingness to remain hands-on throughout the solution lifecycle.
• Willingness and ability to learn multiple technologies beyond Blue Prism.
• Ability to adapt to new tools, platforms, programming languages, integration methods and automation technologies based on business needs.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, particularly when explaining technical issues and design decisions.
• Ability to work effectively with globally distributed technical and business teams.

Nice to have

• Blue Prism Developer, Professional Developer, Technical Architect, or equivalent certification.
• Experience working in large-scale, regulated enterprise environments.
• Experience with Blue Prism platform upgrades, migrations, disaster recovery, infrastructure design or environment administration.
• Experience with Blue Prism Hub, Interact, Capture or Process Intelligence.
• Experience with cloud platforms such as Microsoft Azure or Amazon Web Services.
• Exposure to CI/CD concepts, automated deployments, monitoring tools and DevOps practices.
• Experience working with financial services, healthcare, insurance, banking or other regulated industries.
