The successful candidate will work across a broad technology landscape including .NET, Next,js and AWS. You will play a key role in building scalable, event-driven, cloud-native solutions, improving existing systems, and setting the technical bar for delivery.<br>
<br>
This role requires someone comfortable operating within challenging technical environments, able to work closely with engineering teams and stakeholders to simplify, improve, and evolve existing services. Strong communication and stakeholder management skills are essential, as many existing platforms and services have significant operational and organisational investment behind them.<br>

</li>
<li><p>Promote best practices in software engineering, maintainability, scalability, and operational excellence.</p>
</li>
<li><p>Support teams through technical challenges and modernisation initiatives.</p>
</li>
</ul><div><b>Required Experience</b></div>
