Backend Developer

We’re supporting a business that needs an experienced Backend Developer to join a mature Azure platform team and contribute quickly across live sprint delivery.

This is not a role for someone who needs heavy direction or a detailed brief handed to them for every piece of work. The team needs someone who can pick up requirements, ask the right questions, own their work end-to-end and deliver production-quality code from early in the assignment.

The environment is Microsoft and Azure-led, with a backend platform built around C#/.NET, Azure Functions, Azure API Management, Azure SQL, Service Bus and Azure DevOps.

What you’ll be doing

You’ll be responsible for building, enhancing and supporting backend services across a live digital platform. This will include feature delivery, integration work, production support, testing, DevOps activity and working closely with product and technical stakeholders.

You’ll be expected to contribute across the full delivery lifecycle, from understanding requirements and shaping the technical approach through to build, test, deployment and operational support.
