Application Developer (Microsoft Access, VBA & TSQL) - North Somerset - Contract

Contract length: 6 Month Contract

Start Date: May 2018 - Immediate Start Available

Day Rate: £300 per day

Computer Futures are seeking an Application Developer to join a key client of ours in North Somerset for an initial 6 month contract.

Insight into the working environment:

You will primarily be working on a large MS Access database. The database stores its data within SQL Server 2008 and integrates with a DB2 ERP database held on an AS400. There are around 80 users. The database supplements the business ERP software with critical business processes including engineering control, production planning, production orders & procurement.

Key Duties:

- Disable all unrequired functions within the MRW and other softwares. Ensure required functions are enabled

- Ensure remaining code compiles. Test & validate code to ensure it is free from bugs. Re-write or write new code as necessary to ensure the final solution operates correctly. Ensure that all new or reworked code is written with a defensive code mindset, that all errors are trapped, handled and logged.

- Adequately document relevant work to a professional level. All business critical processes are to be documented from a software and from a business process perspective. All code is to be fully commented to define 'what' the code does and 'why'. Complex code should also define 'how'.

Key Skills & Experience Required:

* Advanced level of TSQL including DML and DDL, stored procedures, functions, triggers & jobs

* Fully conversant with SSMS

* Manipulation of MS Excel and MS Word through the VBA object model.

* Deep and recent experience writing and debugging complex VBA.

* Advanced level of MS Access development including expert VBA skills, ODBC & ADO access to external data sources.

* A strong background of working within quality centric software development environments would provide a solid basis for this and subsequent work.

* Exposure to SQL Server Admin experience would be beneficial.

Other Comments:

The role is 9 to 5 Monday to Friday but with a willingness to support the business when the need arises outside of these hours.
