Why this role?

Our client is a global SaaS company building platforms that process thousands of transactions every day and connect users across Europe. Their engineering teams are scaling products that are mission-critical to customers and need to be secure, resilient and fast. This is a chance to join a forward-looking environment where engineering is valued at the highest level, new technologies are embraced, and technical voices influence direction as much as product ones.

What makes this exciting

• You’ll work on high-scale, cloud-native platforms that are core to the business, used daily by a large professional user base.
• You’ll be joining a team that genuinely values clean code, thoughtful architecture and continuous delivery.
• You’ll have influence not just on what is built but how it is built, with real freedom to shape engineering practices and technical standards.
• You’ll be surrounded by engineers and product teams who are passionate about doing things properly, not cutting corners.

The role

• Design, build and maintain scalable, high-performance applications and services.
• Write clean, maintainable, well-tested code.
• Spot and resolve issues early, whether that’s a performance bottleneck, data integrity risk or security concern.
• Integrate with third-party systems and contribute to building out an event-driven, microservices-based architecture.
• Take part in agile ceremonies, share knowledge across teams and contribute to technical documentation.
• Champion modern engineering practices and be proactive in pushing the stack forward.

What you’ll bring

• Strong experience with .NET and building cloud-based systems.
• Familiarity with AWS or Azure, including serverless functions and microservices.
• Experience with both SQL and NoSQL databases and messaging systems.
• Frontend experience with modern frameworks such as React and TypeScript.
• Strong communication skills, an agile mindset and the ability to juggle multiple priorities.

The stack you’ll be working with

• Cloud: AWS, Azure
• Compute: .NET 8, ECS, Azure VM, Lambda, Azure Functions
• Databases: DynamoDB, MS SQL
• Messaging: SNS, SQS, EventBridge, Event Grid
• Web: React, TypeScript
• DevOps: GitHub Enterprise, Azure DevOps, Terraform, GitHub Actions, Azure Pipelines

Useful extras

• Experience with Docker, Event-Driven Architecture, RabbitMQ, SignalR, or Azure services.
• A genuine interest in learning and sharing knowledge, plus a drive for continuous improvement.

Why join?

This is the best of both worlds. You’ll be part of a global organisation with the security and resources of a market leader, while enjoying the agility and modern engineering culture of a SaaS scale-up. The work you do will directly shape platforms relied upon by thousands of users every day.
