A growing Belfast team. A major platform programme. Real influence over what gets built.

Over the past year, I've successfully partnered with this business on multiple hires, helping build its Belfast team to 18 people
. Now, as an exclusive recruitment partner
, I'm supporting its next phase of growth with opportunities for Senior Software Engineers.

You'll have six or more years of software engineering experience
, strong technical fundamentals and an interest in solving complex integration challenges.

The core stack is React, Ruby and AWS
, but there's flexibility for engineers coming from other backend languages or modern frontend frameworks. Your ability to learn, make sound engineering decisions and deliver reliable software matters.

Full-stack capability with a backend leaning would suit the work particularly well, and practical experience using AI coding assistants is essential
.

• 35-hour working week
  , with flexible start and finish times.
