Key Responsibilities:
• Lead the design, development and implementation of high-performance software solutions using C# and .NET.
• Develop and maintain scalable, distributed applications, including microservices, APIs and real-time data processing systems.
• Drive technical direction, contribute to architectural decisions and ensure solutions meet performance, security and reliability requirements.
• Oversee code quality through reviews, coding standards and the implementation of CI/CD processes.
• Troubleshoot complex technical issues while providing guidance and mentoring to other developers within the team.
The Ideal Candidate:
• A degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering or a relevant discipline, alongside at least five years' professional software development experience.
• Strong commercial experience with C# and .NET, including .NET Core, with a proven background in designing scalable, distributed systems.
• Experience with communication protocols and technologies such as TCP/IP, gRPC, Kafka or RabbitMQ.
• Strong knowledge of performance optimisation, concurrency, multithreading and application security, ideally within high-availability or critical infrastructure environments.
• Experience with front-end frameworks and architectures such as WPF, MVVM, MVP or MVC, alongside strong problem-solving and technical leadership skills.
Experience of Agile Scrum methodologies, CI/CD toolchains, automated testing, Java, Python, PowerShell or legacy WinForms applications would also be advantageous.
If you are an experienced C# Developer looking to take the next step in your career and have a genuine influence on software architecture and technical direction, we would be keen to hear from you.
