Job description

Technical Lead (Software Engineering)

£65,000 - £95,000 + package

Belfast – Hybrid

We’re hiring a Technical Lead to join a consultancy that actually builds. Not theory decks. Not PowerPoint architecture. Real engineering outcomes for enterprise scale clients across multiple sectors.

This is sleeves rolled up, hands‑on technical leadership. If you are a highly involved Engineering Manager, Chief Engineer or Staff Engineer with a blend of hands‑on coding and technical leadership of high performing engineering teams, this is a great one for you.

What you’ll do :

• Technically lead squads and guide high performing engineering teams on build
• Architect, problem solve and design solutions end to end, not just ship features
• Modern engineering: IaC, CI/CD, secure coding, event‑driven architecture, TDD etc
• Drive improvement across the whole SDLC
• Work with clients directly (this is consultative delivery and advisory)
• Support and shape proposals during early stage bids

What you’ll bring :

• A minimum of 2 years at leadership level (not just mentoring; setting technical strategy and so much more!)
• Extensive engineering experience within one or more of the following languages: Java, JavaScript/TS or C#
• Extensive cloud deployment experience across AWS, Azure or GCP
• Experience with IaC, CI/CD, TDD
• Highly communicative and consulting astuteness to be client‑facing
• Security Clearance Eligibility (you may work on public sector projects!)

The Package :

• £65,000 - £95,000 base
• Company bonus
• Pension
• Medical care
• Share scheme
