What Does a Full Stack Developer Do?

Full Stack Developers are responsible for designing and building both the front end and back end of websites and software applications. They ensure the user interface is intuitive while also structuring the back end to handle complex program logic and database interactions. Common languages include Java, .Net, PHP, React, Angular, and Node.JS.

Front End Developer Role Overview

Front End Developers are responsible for creating new micro-sites, landing pages, and templates, as well as troubleshooting and offering guidance for existing sites. They focus on structuring and designing web pages, ensuring both functionality and aesthetics are balanced. Front-end technologies include HTML5, CSS, W3C, React, Angular, Typescript, Node.JS, and Vue.Js.

Back End Developers

A Back End Developer builds and maintains the technologies that power servers, applications & databases that enable the user-facing side of the website or web application. In order to make servers, applications and databases communicate with each other, Back End Developers use server-side languages like PHP, Ruby, Python, Java, and .Net to build application code and tools like MySQL, Oracle, and SQL Server to find, save, or change data and serve it back to the user in front-end code.

Mobile Developers

Mobile Application Developers primarily create, develop, maintain and upgrade mobile apps and products that are used on smartphone or tablet devices. They have a specialist development skill set tailored for mobile operating systems, primarily with Android and iOS. Mobile developers use the programming language and software development environment suited to their chosen platform. Common languages include Java, Objective-C, Swift and Cocoa Touch.

Embedded Software Engineers

An Embedded Software Engineer will develop optimised code for specific hardware platforms, primarily firmware controlling and/or managing hardware devices. These roles are generally a mix of electronics and software. Most come from engineering backgrounds with strong C/C++ coding skills, strong Python scripting skills, able to read schematics & electronic data sheets and understand communication protocols.

ERP/CRM Platform Developers

Many developers choose to specialise in a particular platform with their own set of development tools and API’s. Typically these roles incorporate deploying, customising and integrating a platform or product to suit a clients requirements. Popular platforms include Salesforce, SAP, Oracle, Dynamics 365 and others. Many have specialist development languages or tools to suit but most have core coding skills in Java, .Net and HTML.
