Job description

A growing, product-led software business is looking for a Software Engineer to join its Product Development team on a hybrid basis (two days a week on-site in Newark). This is a genuine blend of hands-on development and support - you’ll spend your time writing, debugging and improving code, delivering new features and automations, and stepping in to troubleshoot live issues when they arise. Because you’ll be dealing directly with internal teams, customers and technology partners, you’ll need to be as comfortable explaining a fix to a non-technical stakeholder as you are writing it.

It’s a great fit for someone humble, hardworking and eager to learn - the kind of engineer who’s genuinely passionate about tech, keeps an eye on new advancements, and wants to work somewhere they can grow across the full software lifecycle., * Writing, reviewing, debugging and refactoring code to improve reliability, performance and maintainability

  • Delivering new features, enhancements, integrations and internal automations
  • Investigating, diagnosing and resolving production issues, keeping stakeholders updated throughout
  • Proactively monitoring application health, logs and alerts to catch issues before they hit customers
  • Supporting customers and third-party developers integrating with the platform, including API troubleshooting
  • Collaborating with Product, Development and Operations teams to test, validate and release new functionality
  • Making sensible use of modern and AI-assisted development tools, always reviewing and validating outputs
  • Contributing to documentation, knowledge base articles and support procedures

Requirements

  • Strong programming and debugging skills across C#, .NET, JavaScript, HTML5, CSS3 and SQL Server / MySQL
  • Solid understanding of API development and integration (RESTful and SOAP, JSON and XML)
  • Experience in software support, systems integration or application troubleshooting, ideally in a customer-facing or production environment
  • Familiarity with API tooling such as Postman or Swagger
  • Working knowledge of Microsoft Azure and modern DevOps practices (source control, issue tracking, deployment pipelines)
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with a genuine eye for root cause
  • Clear communicator, able to explain technical issues to technical and non-technical audiences alike
  • Comfortable using AI-assisted coding tools with sound judgement
  • A proactive, humble approach to learning - passionate about tech and keen to keep improving

Skills

  • C#
  • JavaScript
  • .Net
  • SQL Server

Benefits & conditions

  • Salary of £35,000 - £40,000
  • Hybrid working - only two days a week on-site in Newark
  • Full-lifecycle exposure across support, development and deployment
  • Modern stack and up-to-date tooling, including AI-assisted development platforms
  • International, product-led business with real scope to learn and progress
