Senior Software Developer .Net & Blazor

Senior Software Developer - Industrial Automation Environment

We are seeking a Senior Software Developer to play a key role in designing, building, and maintaining core software applications that support advanced automated materials handling, warehouse automation, and robotics‑led production environments.

This is a software‑led position, focused on developing production‑grade applications, platforms, and user interfaces. While the software operates within an industrial setting, the primary responsibility is software engineering – not hardware configuration or PLC programming.

You will join a team responsible for modernising an existing technology stack, contributing to the transition from Python/Django to C#/NET and Blazor. This role offers ownership across application design, architecture, and long‑term maintainability, alongside close collaboration with engineering teams to ensure software aligns with real‑world systems.

• Design, develop and maintain core software applications used in automation and production environments
• Lead hands‑on development in C#/NET, contributing to system migration and platform evolution
• Build and enhance operator‑facing applications, dashboards and visualisation tools displaying real‑time system data
• Own application logic, workflows and behaviour within production systems
• Contribute to overall software architecture, technical standards and development best practices
• Implement and maintain version control and CI/CD pipelines using Git Hub
• Ensure applications are reliable, maintainable and resilient, with a strong emphasis on fault handling and diagnostics
• Collaborate with controls, robotics and mechanical engineers to ensure seamless integration with physical systems
• Support testing, commissioning and deployment of software releases
• Mentor junior developers and contribute to technical decision‑making within the team

• Strong commercial experience with C# and .NET
• Experience building user interfaces and application logic using Blazor or similar frameworks
• Background in Python, ideally within Django environments (particularly for legacy systems or migrations)
• Hands‑on experience with Git Hub, including branching strategies, pull requests and CI/CD workflows
• Strong understanding of clean code principles, maintainability and scalable software design

• Experience developing software for industrial, manufacturing, automation, logistics or IoT environments
• Understanding of how software interacts with PLC‑controlled or machine‑driven systems (no PLC programming required)
• Comfortable working in environments where uptime, reliability and performance are critical

• Experience designing and maintaining long‑running, production‑grade systems
• Ability to build fault‑tolerant applications interacting with external systems and data sources
• Strong debugging, troubleshooting and problem‑solving capability

• The opportunity to work on real‑world, high‑impact systems combining software, robotics and automation
• Ownership of critical applications that directly influence operational performance
• Involvement in a large‑scale technology modernisation programme
• A collaborative, multidisciplinary environment with exposure to cutting‑edge automation technologies
• Influence over technical direction, standards and best practices

This role is:

• A hands‑on senior software development position
• Focused on building robust, scalable applications
• Product and platform oriented
• Embedded within a real‑world automation environment

This role is not:

• A PLC programming position
• A controls engineering or systems integration‑only role
• A pure web or SaaS‑focused development job
