Mid level Full Stack Developer

· Provisioning and evolving infrastructure using Terraform (IaC) rather than clicking around in the portal.

· Occasionally contributing to UIs in React or Blazor when a project requires it.

· Taking part in CI/CD workflows and helping to improve our automation pipelines.

· Participating in architectural discussions. We design together; nobody is expected to have all the answers.

· Investigating and resolving bugs, performance bottlenecks and production incidents.

· Using AI assistants to move faster, while remaining personally responsible for the correctness, quality and security of the code you commit.

Do you have experience in NoSQL?, We're looking for a mid-level developer who is happy to push hard, enjoys learning, and wants to help us build the next generation of legal-tech solutions on a modern Azure stack.

Our Stack

We are a cloud-first, Azure-based company. Day to day you will work with:

· Cloud and compute: Microsoft Azure, including Function Apps, App Services, Container Apps, and AKS (Kubernetes) clusters.

· Backend: .NET and C#, building REST APIs (minimal API) and event-driven microservices.

· Data: NoSQL (Cosmos DB and/or MongoDB) alongside relational stores (MS SQL, PostgreSQL).

· Messaging and events: Service Bus, Event Grid, Event Hubs and similar. We do a lot of event-driven development.

· Infrastructure as Code: Terraform is our standard for provisioning and managing Azure resources.

· Front-end (when needed): We are primarily an API company, but we occasionally write UIs using React and Blazor.

· Testing: Automated unit, integration and functional tests.

· Tooling: GitHub and Azure DevOps, CI/CD pipelines, and AI assistants used as part of the day-to-day workflow.

What We're Looking For

At LMS we value more than technical excellence. We are looking for people who bring:

· An Agile, continuous-learning mindset, and a willingness to push hard and pick up cutting-edge technology.

· A proactive, collaborative approach, and a desire to contribute to design as well as implementation.

· Systems thinking, problem-solving and curiosity.

· A commitment to quality, security and customer value.

· Comfort using AI tools as part of your workflow, while understanding that you own the code you ship.

Your Role

As a Mid-Level Developer at LMS your responsibilities will include:

· Designing and building scalable, event-driven services running on Azure (Function Apps, minimal APIs, UIs where needed).

· Writing clean, efficient and maintainable C# / .NET code, backed by automated tests (nUnit, xUnit or MS Test).

· Modelling and working with data in NoSQL stores (Cosmos, Mongo) and relational databases where appropriate.

· Building and consuming messaging and event flows using Azure Service Bus, Event Grid, Event Hubs and similar., · 3+ years of professional experience with .NET / C# building production services.

· Hands-on experience with Microsoft Azure, ideally Function Apps and at least one of AKS, Container Apps or App Services.

· Experience designing and consuming RESTful APIs.

· Working experience with at least one NoSQL database (Cosmos DB or MongoDB).

· Experience with messaging and event-driven systems (Service Bus, Event Grid, Event Hubs, Kafka or similar).

· Comfortable writing automated unit tests. A solid grasp of the concept matters more than the exact library; experience with any of nUnit, xUnit or MS Test is fine.

· Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and source control (GitHub or Azure DevOps).

· Right to work in the United Kingdom.

Strongly Desirable

· Production experience with Terraform (or another IaC tool) on Azure.

· Experience operating workloads on Kubernetes (AKS preferred).

· Front-end experience with React and/or Blazor.

· Exposure to observability tooling (App Insights, Datadog, etc.).

· Awareness of secure coding practices and handling of sensitive data.

We'll Train the Right Person

We don't expect every box to be ticked on day one. If you are strong in .NET and Azure and excited about the rest of the stack, we are happy to provide training and pair you with experienced engineers to round out your skills.

How We Work

· Self-organising, value-driven teams inspired by Lean, Agile and XP, while staying open to new ideas.

· When a new project starts we come together as a team, so that everyone has the same understanding of the goal from day 1.

· Architectural design is a shared effort. Architects, seniors and mid-level developers all contribute.

· A Sandbox environment for rapid prototyping. We like to experiment before we commit to an approach.

· AI is part of our workflow, but engineering ownership is not: developers own and are responsible for the code that ships.

· Hybrid working with a real reason to come in. Office days are used for kick-offs, design sessions and collaborative work, not attendance for its own sake.

Soft Skills

We value and encourage growth in these areas:

· Problem-Solving: diagnosing and resolving software issues with creativity and critical thinking.

· Communication: explaining technical concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.

· Adaptability: working well in a changing environment with evolving technologies and requirements.

· Time Management: organising your work to meet deadlines and deliver high-quality outcomes.

· Collaboration: working well with others, offering support, and asking for help when needed., · .NET / C#: 3 years (required)

· Microsoft Azure: 2 years (required)

· NoSQL (Cosmos or MongoDB): 1 year (required)
