Software Engineering Manager – C#

Are you passionate about advancing the next generation of semiconductors?

We are looking for an experienced Software Engineering Manager (C#) to lead our high-performing engineering team, driving our cutting-edge metrology product development. In this pivotal role, you’ll combine technical leadership with people management, shaping the software strategy and delivering impact across a growing cross-functional team.


About the Role

A typical day may involve:

  • Leading sprint planning, estimation, and tracking for the C# team, ensuring realistic, visible, and customer-aligned delivery.
  • Coaching and developing team members through 1:1s, appraisals, and career growth in an inclusive environment.
  • Collaborating with architects, LabVIEW, data analysis, and systems teams to manage dependencies and unblock delivery.
  • Engaging with stakeholders to communicate status clearly and support customer-facing readiness decisions.
  • Reviewing code, reinforcing design patterns, MVVM architecture, and C# .NET best practices as the team scales.
  • Contributing hands-on technically (when capacity allows) and influencing architectural decisions.

Responsibilities

  • Own and deliver phased software plans, clarifying milestones, assumptions, dependencies, and confidence levels.
  • Drive Agile/Lean delivery in a multi-disciplinary sprint-based environment.
  • Translate complex technical concepts for both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Work with requirement traceability, design reviews, Jira, and equivalent tools from concept to delivery.

Requirements

Essential

  • Minimum 5 years of hands-on C# software development experience in the industry.
  • People management or team leadership expertise, including appraisals, career development, and recruitment.
  • Strong C# .NET architecture knowledge, including:
    • Design patterns
    • MVVM architecture
    • Threading models
  • UI development with WPF or equivalent technologies.
  • Experience in owning and communicating phased delivery plans.
  • Experience with Agile/Lean methodologies in a sprint-based, cross-functional environment.
  • Ability to clearly communicate technical concepts to diverse stakeholders.
  • Proficiency with requirement traceability, design reviews, and Jira.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

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.
