About the Role
In this role, you’ll play a key part in designing, building, and delivering scalable software solutions across a modern technology stack. You’ll collaborate closely with a cross-functional Agile SCRUM team, contribute to architectural decisions, and ensure high-quality engineering practices are upheld. Alongside development work, you’ll support critical systems, maintain deployment pipelines, and help drive best practices across the team.
Responsibilities
* Developing, enhancing, and deploying software solutions using C#.NET, AWS, Kafka, Docker, OpenTelemetry, and RDS databases (MSSQL, PostgreSQL, MySQL).
* Maintaining and optimising CI/CD pipelines within Azure DevOps to ensure efficient and reliable software delivery.
* Managing and updating Infrastructure as Code using Terraform and Terragrunt, supporting consistent and scalable environments.
* Contributing to architectural discussions, providing technical input and aligning solutions with system-wide design principles.
* Mentoring team members through code reviews, knowledge sharing, and adherence to coding standards and performance expectations.
About You
You’re an experienced software engineer with a solid academic foundation in Computer Science or an equivalent blend of qualifications and hands‑on expertise. With 6+ years of professional engineering experience, you’re confident working across modern architectures, event-driven systems, and cloud-native environments. You communicate complex technical concepts with clarity and adapt your message to suit any audience, whether collaborating across multiple teams or influencing key technical decisions.
You have a deep understanding of software engineering principles – OOP, DDD, and proven design patterns – and bring practical experience with C#.NET, OpenTelemetry, Kafka, Grafana, and containerised workloads. You’re comfortable working with both SQL and NoSQL databases and have hands‑on experience with AWS cloud services. You’re also well-versed in developer operational processes such as CI/CD, Infrastructure as Code, and version control, and you thrive in dynamic, event-driven domains where scalability, reliability, and quality matter.
