Guitarguitar | Top 100 UK Internet Retailer
đź“Ť Hybrid role - 3 days in office / 2 from home (Glasgow-based, commuting distance required)
Build software that powers the UK’s largest guitar retailer 🎸
At guitarguitar, music is more than a product - it’s what connects people, inspires creativity, and changes lives. As the UK’s largest guitar retailer and a Top 100 UK Internet Retailer, we’re continuing to invest heavily in our in-house technology platforms that power both our online and in-store experiences.
We’re looking for a Software Engineer to join our growing technology team and help shape the future of our award-winning eCommerce and EPOS platforms. This is a hands-on role where your work will be used daily by customers, store teams, and the wider business.
This is a hybrid position based in our Linwood office, collaboration matters to us, and we value building great software together whilst having fun!
Why this role is different
You won’t be working on features that never see the light of day. You’ll be:
* Building and evolving mission-critical platforms used across our entire business
* Shipping features regularly using modern CI/CD pipelines
* Working in a collaborative, agile team that values quality, pragmatism, and continuous improvement
* Pairing, reviewing code, sharing ideas, and influencing how we work - not just following tickets
We’re not a faceless warehouse or a disconnected tech department. We’re an enthusiastic, people-focused business where technology is central to our success.
What you’ll be doing
* Designing, building, testing, and maintaining features across our eCommerce and EPOS platforms
* Working across front-end and back-end, delivering clean, scalable solutions
* Translating real user and business needs into high-quality, maintainable code
* Building reusable components and libraries to support future development
* Participating in code reviews, pair programming, and technical discussions
* Helping shape our engineering practices, tooling, and processes as we grow
What we’re looking for
You’re a well-rounded software engineer who enjoys solving problems, learning new things, and taking pride in what you build.
Essential experience & skills
* Commercial experience with C# and .NET
* Entity Framework and SQL
* React, JavaScript (ES6+), TypeScript
* HTML, CSS, Sass
* Experience with code reviews and cross-browser testing
* Comfortable working in an Agile/Scrum environment
Desirable (but not essential)
* ASP.NET, ASP.NET Core, Web API / REST services
* Razor
* npm, webpack
* Windows Server / IIS
1.
If you don’t tick every box but feel excited by the role, we’d still love to hear from you.
What we offer
* A meaningful engineering role with visible impact in a well-known UK retail brand
* The chance to influence and improve how we build software
* A supportive, collaborative engineering culture
* Employee Ownership Trust bonus
* Company contributory pension scheme
* Ongoing learning and development opportunities
* Staff discount scheme
