🚀 Senior Software Engineer | Cardiff / Hybrid (2 Days Onsite)
We're looking for an experienced Senior Software Engineer to join our client's team in Cardiff. You'll be a technical leader within our engineering squad — setting the standard for code quality, mentoring engineers, and playing a key role in shaping how we build and deliver software.
🛠 The Role
This is a hands-on senior role. You'll be writing code every day, but also taking ownership of technical direction, leading by example, and helping to level up the engineers around you.
Day to day you'll be:
- Designing and building robust backend services and APIs with C# / .NET Core
- Owning complex SQL work including schema design, performance tuning and data modelling
- Leading frontend development using JavaScript (any framework welcome)
- Driving cloud infrastructure decisions and best practices, primarily on Azure
- Leading code reviews and championing engineering standards across the team
- Mentoring and supporting junior and mid-level engineers in their development
- Taking the lead on technical design and architecture discussions
- Collaborating with product and stakeholders to translate requirements into solid technical solutions
- Identifying and resolving technical debt, and advocating for long-term maintainability
