Senior Software Engineer - Belfast

Belfast | Hybrid | 3 days in office

I'm working with a well-established technology company in Belfast that is continuing to grow its engineering team and invest in modern technology.

They're looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join the team and work on the development of large-scale applications and services. This would suit someone who enjoys being hands-on, likes solving complex technical problems and wants to have a real say in how solutions are designed and built.





What you'll be doing

  • Developing and improving large-scale software applications

  • Working across backend services with some full-stack exposure

  • Getting involved in technical design and architecture

  • Working with modern cloud and container technologies

  • Helping improve development practices and engineering standards

  • Working closely with other engineers, product and technical teams

  • Taking ownership of projects and seeing them through from idea to delivery

  • Supporting and mentoring other developers where appropriate





What we're looking for

You don't need to tick every box, but ideally you'll have:

  • 5+ years' commercial software development experience

  • Strong experience with TypeScript

  • Experience working with microservices

  • Good knowledge of Docker and Kubernetes

  • Experience working with AWS or another major cloud platform

  • Strong understanding of software design and architecture

  • A genuine interest in building reliable, scalable software





Why consider it?

This is a good opportunity for someone who wants more than just a coding role. You'll have the chance to own projects, influence technical decisions and work alongside a strong engineering team.

The company is also embracing AI-assisted development, so it's a good environment for engineers who are interested in how AI can improve the way software is built.

If you're a Senior Software Engineer based in Belfast and open to hearing about something new, get in touch for a confidential chat.
