Responsibilities

• Architecture & Development: Design, build, test, and refactor complex, loosely coupled backend services and database systems in C#/.NET.
• Platform Modernisation: Support our ongoing architecture evolution, including migrating serverless workloads over to containerised services.
• Engineering Culture & Mentorship: Lead code reviews, mentor fellow engineers, and raise the bar for software development methods, security practices, and testing approaches.
• Product Collaboration: Work directly with Product Owners to shape acceptance criteria, focusing on real-world customer outcomes rather than code alone.
• DevOps & Quality: Build and improve CI/CD pipelines, manage observability (logging, metrics, monitoring), and partner with QA to ensure solid test coverage across the Agile pyramid.
• Pragmatic Design: Evaluate design trade-offs, manage technical debt responsibly, and build security into systems from day one.

Requirements

Essential:

• Core Tech Stack: Strong, proven expertise in designing and building backend services with C#/.NET.
• Distributed Systems: Experience building loosely coupled architectures using event-based or message queue patterns.
• Data & Cloud: Strong SQL skills (database design and query optimization) and experience operating services on a major cloud platform (we run exclusively on Azure, but equivalent AWS or GCP experience transfers smoothly).
• Testing & Quality: A firm discipline in unit and integration testing as an integral part of your workflow.
• Pragmatic AI Usage: Practical, day-to-day experience using AI coding assistants as part of your development process- with the critical mindset to review, adapt, or reject generated code.
• DevOps Mindset: Comfortable working in agile environments with Git and CI/CD pipelines.
• Communication & Leadership: Ability to explain complex technical concepts clearly to non-technical stakeholders, along with a track record of mentoring team members.

Desirable (Bonus points if you have):

• Experience with modern .NET versions (we are moving to .NET 10) and native Azure services.
• Experience with Infrastructure as Code (we use Bicep; Terraform experience is equally welcome).
• Familiarity with both serverless and containerised infrastructure.
• Full-stack capabilities or frontend experience with component frameworks like Angular.
• Experience with high-throughput transactional messaging (SMS, IP messaging).
• Experience leveraging AI tools beyond code generation (e.g., test generation, refactoring, documentation).

• Competitive Salary (£65 - 75,000)
• Company Bonus Scheme
• Comprehensive healthcare cash plan
• A generous 27 days of annual leave in addition to Bank Holidays
