Job description

At Convergence Group, we’ve spent over 20 years quietly powering some of the UK’s most complex networks - and now we’re growing fast. We’re looking for a Full Stack Software Engineer with strong C# skills to help us design and build the next generation of software that powers our business.

What It’s Like Here

The pace and intensity are higher than most environments in our sector. The workload is typically around 30% greater than many people will have experienced elsewhere - not because we are chaotic, but because we are ambitious and constantly building. We grow organically and through acquisition, continuously integrating, improving and raising the bar. The landscape evolves, priorities shift, and expectations rise. If you prefer a predictable, static environment, this probably won’t feel comfortable. If you are energised by growth, movement and high standards, it can be deeply rewarding. Your strengths will have a bigger platform here - and you will be stretched behaviourally more than in most environments. We value respectful honesty: anyone can challenge an idea, hierarchy doesn’t protect thinking and getting it right matters more than being right. Ego doesn’t perform well here; curiosity, learning and ownership do. We hire people who are already strong at their craft - the stretch at Convergence Group is navigating pace, complexity and constant evolution. This environment isn’t for everyone, but for the right person it offers an exceptional opportunity for impact, growth and accelerated development.

What You’ll Be Doing As Our Software Engineer

• Build and maintain high-quality, scalable web applications using C#, JavaScript, web development frameworks and libraries (e.g. React, Next.js, Blazor), and Azure services.
• Design intuitive front-end experiences and robust back-end logic with seamless client-server integration.
• Implement new features using frameworks, databases and API integration and management.
• Ensure software quality with unit, integration, and automated testing.
• Collaborate in Agile environments (e.g. Scrum or Kanban) - participating in standups, sprint planning, and delivery.
• Troubleshoot, debug, and resolve application issues.
• Engage in code reviews and QAT to maintain standards, knowledge sharing, and continuous learning.
• Drive improvements across the SDLC: tools, pipelines, architecture, and documentation.

What We’re Looking For

• A minimum of 5 years’ experience of C#
• Strong knowledge of JavaScript, HTML/CSS, and modern frameworks (React, Blazor, Next.js).
• Experience working knowledge of Azure cloud services and SQL databases.
• A solid grasp of CI/CD pipelines and automated testing frameworks.
• Comfort with Agile methodologies (Scrum or Kanban) and working in fast-moving teams.
• Effective communicator who can translate complex technical ideas to both developers and stakeholders.
• Excellent attention to detail.
• Experience in producing & consuming technical documentation e.g user stories, database schemas, system guides.
• Bonus points for experience with IT service management tools like ServiceNow or working within a fast-paced SME environment.

What You’ll Get

• Salary: £55,000 - £65,000 for experienced A players.
• Time off: 33 days holiday, including bank holidays (and yes, it gets better).
• Benefits: Private Medical, enhanced Pension, Income Protection & Life Assurance.
• Work-life balance: flexible core hours + hybrid working with 3 days a week in the Solihull office.
• Dog friendly office - yes really!
