Solutions Engineer

We are Manchester-based with a hybrid model (2 days pw - Mon & Wed). Engineering and Professional Services work closely together. Client feedback directly influences product thinking. Decisions are made quickly and ownership sits with the people doing the work. As the company grows, so does the opportunity to shape how we design, deliver and scale technical solutions. This hire is part of that next phase., You will design and build tailored software solutions for clients on the Engage platform. That means writing code, building integrations, configuring workflows and working directly with stakeholders to ensure what we deliver genuinely solves their operational challenges.

This is a hands-on development role with client exposure. You will spend time in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, SQL and C#, while also leading technical conversations that shape what gets built.

If you enjoy coding but also want visibility, ownership and real-world impact beyond an internal backlog, this role offers both.

What You'll Own

• Lead technical discovery conversations with clients to understand business goals and operational challenges
• Translate requirements into clear, scalable technical designs
• Build and configure workflows, forms, integrations and custom components

• Work with APIs, REST and JSON to connect systems and data
