Senior Software Engineer

A leading global technology and consulting organisation is hiring Senior Software Engineers to join a major Software & Platform Engineering team in Manchester, building modern cloud-native applications for large-scale private and public sector clients.

This is a hands‑on senior engineering role for someone who can build production‑quality software, contribute to technical decisions, and help shape the delivery of scalable applications across cloud, serverless, containerised and CI/CD‑led environments.

You’ll be joining a large engineering community, working on products and platforms that can impact millions of users across sectors including public sector, blue‑chip enterprise and high‑growth scale‑ups.

• Building traditional and serverless applications and services
• Designing and integrating applications with data stores, message buses and wider cloud architecture
• Deploying applications using containers, cloud services and CI/CD pipelines
• Supporting production observability, maintainability, security and performance
• Writing clean, secure, well‑tested software
• Using unit, integration and contract testing
• Shaping and delivering small to medium‑sized engineering work streams
• Supporting technical decision‑making and mentoring less experienced engineers

• Java, Type Script, Python, Go, C# or modern frontend frameworks
• AWS preferred, with Azure or GCP also useful
• Terraform, AWS CDK, Pulumi or similar IaC tools
• Git Hub Actions, Git Lab CI, Jenkins, CircleCI or ArgoCD
• Containers, serverless, CI/CD, testing and observability tooling

• Strong commercial software engineering experience
• Hands‑on coding ability in modern backend, frontend or full‑stack environments
• Experience building or maintaining CI/CD pipelines
• Strong debugging and complex problem‑solving skills
• Understanding of secure coding, performance and production‑quality delivery
• Good communication skills and the ability to work in client‑facing agile teams

This would suit a Senior Software Engineer who wants to stay hands‑on while working across modern cloud, platform and product engineering environments.
