Job description

I have an immediate need for a Software Engineer on a Remote basis (with the expectation to go to the office based near Chester on a "needs must" basis - this has been circa 2-4 times per year historically).

As a Software Engineer you are responsible for designing, developing, and delivering high-quality software solutions that meet business objectives. The role involves collaborating with cross-functional teams to understand client and business requirements, providing technical leadership, and ensuring that the codebase is maintainable, scalable, and robust.

Software Development:

• Develop and maintain applications using C#, .NET Core, .NET 4.x, and React.js.
• Write efficient, scalable, and maintainable code with a focus on high-quality standards and minimal defect leakage.
• Implement frontend solutions using ASP.Net MVC, HTML5, CSS, and Vue.js.
• Design and develop RESTful APIs and Web APIs, ensuring best practices in API design.
• Utilize SQL, Entity Framework, and SQL Server for database management and optimization.
• Apply design patterns (e.g., OOP, SOLID, Clean Code) to create robust and reusable code components.

Engineering & Architecture:

• Perform high-level and detailed estimations for software projects.
• Write and maintain unit tests and integration tests to ensure code quality and reliability.
• Conduct code reviews and participate in pair programming sessions to enhance code quality.
• Design and architect scalable systems that meet performance requirements.
• Implement and test security features (e.g., SSO, OAuth) within the software applications.

Cloud Computing & DevOps:

• Develop and deploy applications on Azure using services such as Azure Apps, Blob Storage, Service Bus, and Azure Functions.
• Utilize version control systems (Git) and participate in DevOps practices including CI/CD pipelines (e.g., YAML).
• Leverage Azure DevOps for task management and deployment processes.
• Collaborate with System Architects, Platform Engineering, and Product Owners to understand and deliver on client and business objectives.
• Work within the team and engage in cross-functional collaboration to ensure project success.
• Proactively communicate progress, challenges, and feedback to team members and stakeholders.
• Present technical information effectively to different audiences, ensuring clarity and understanding.

Delivery:

• Deliver large-sized tasks with minimal support, ensuring timely and high-quality delivery.
• Provide High-Level Sizing and Detailed estimates that accurately reflect project scope and complexity leading to minimal variance between estimated and actual effort.
• Work with the delivery lead to create a well-defined project plan with clear timelines and resource allocation.
• Identify and escalate issues when work items deviate from the plan.
• Contribute to and appreciate Agile ceremonies to improve development processes.

Required:

• 3+ years of experience in software engineering with a strong focus on backend and frontend technologies.
• Extensive experience with C#, .NET Core, .NET 4.x, React.js, and related technologies.
• Proven experience in designing and implementing scalable and robust systems.
