Software Developer
Stockport - Hybrid (2 days per week in the office)
Permanent, Full Time
January 2027 start
Salary: up to £50,000
We're looking for a talented Software Developer to join a growing development team and help build, enhance and support modern, cloud-based software solutions.
This is a great opportunity for a developer with solid commercial experience who enjoys solving real-world problems, working with Microsoft technologies and getting involved across the full software development lifecycle.
You'll also be joining a team that is embracing AI-assisted development, so we're particularly interested in developers who are already using tools such as Claude, GitHub Copilot or similar and are keen to explore how AI can make development more efficient and effective.
The Role
Working as part of a collaborative Agile team, you'll be involved in designing, developing, testing and supporting software applications.
You'll have the opportunity to work across a broad range of development activities while continuing to build your technical skills and contribute ideas for improving both applications and development processes.
What You'll Be Doing
- Developing, testing and maintaining high-quality software applications
- Writing clean, secure, maintainable and well-documented code
- Working with colleagues and stakeholders to understand requirements and deliver effective solutions
- Building and supporting applications using Microsoft technologies and Azure
- Developing and optimising SQL Server databases, queries and stored procedures
- Working as part of an Agile development team
- Troubleshooting application defects and performance issues
- Participating in code reviews and contributing to development best practices
- Identifying opportunities to improve applications, processes and user experience
- Keeping up to date with emerging technologies, particularly across the Microsoft and AI ecosystems
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What We're Looking For
You'll need solid commercial experience with:
- C# and .NET
- Microsoft Azure and cloud-based development
- Microsoft SQL Server and T-SQL
- HTML, CSS and JavaScript
- A modern JavaScript framework such as React or Angular
- The software development lifecycle, including development, testing and deployment
- Secure software development principles
- Agile development environments
You'll also need good problem-solving and analytical skills, together with the ability to communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical colleagues.
AI-assisted development
AI is becoming an increasingly important part of modern software development, and we're looking for developers who are interested in embracing that change.
Ideally, you'll already have some practical experience using tools such as Claude, GitHub Copilot or similar for activities including:
- Coding
- Testing and debugging
- Documentation
- Research and problem solving
Just as importantly, you'll understand that AI-generated code needs to be reviewed, tested and validated rather than simply accepted at face value.
You don't need to be an AI expert. We're looking for someone who is curious, willing to experiment and keen to develop their understanding of how AI can improve the development process.

- Machine learning
- IoT platforms or data-driven applications
What You'll Bring

- Enjoys solving problems and finding better ways of doing things
- Works well with both technical and non-technical colleagues
- Takes pride in producing quality software
