Curated is partnering with a global SaaS scale-up undergoing a significant platform modernisation and growth phase. The business is scaling multiple engineering teams and is looking to bring in highly experienced contract Software Engineers to support complex, high-impact delivery.
This role is suited to senior engineers who enjoy working on large, evolving platforms, modern cloud infrastructure, and solving non-trivial technical problems in fast-moving environments.
The Role
You will join a cross-functional product engineering team working on the evolution and modernisation of a core SaaS platform. The focus is on building scalable, cloud-native services while improving reliability, performance, and long-term maintainability.
This is a hands‑on role requiring strong engineering judgement, the ability to work through existing systems pragmatically, and the confidence to contribute to architectural and technical decisions.
What You’ll Be Doing
* Designing and building backend services using modern .NET
* Developing and scaling cloud-native solutions on Microsoft Azure
* Working with large, data‑heavy systems using SQL
* Improving and refactoring existing systems to support future platform growth
* Writing high‑quality, well‑tested, production‑ready code
* Collaborating closely with Product and Engineering peers on delivery and prioritisation
* Supporting a platform used at scale, with a strong focus on performance and reliability
What We’re Looking For
* 7+ years of professional software engineering experience
* Strong, hands‑on experience with the modern .NET stack
* Proven experience building and operating systems on Microsoft Azure
* Solid experience working with SQL in large‑scale production environments
* Experience working on complex, long‑lived systems rather than greenfield only
* Strong problem‑solving and analytical skills
* Pragmatic mindset with a focus on delivering value, not over‑engineering
* Comfortable working in Agile, product‑led teams
* Strong communication skills, able to explain technical decisions and trade‑offs clearly
