We're working with an established software company as they look to hire a Software Engineer to strengthen their engineering team.
This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys building robust backend systems, taking ownership of complex development work, and helping drive engineering standards forward.

- Comfortable working in a Git + Atlassian based workflow (or similar)
Nice to have (but not essential):
- Mentoring/leading other engineers via code reviews and technical guidance
- Exposure to modern languages such as Rust / Go
- Experience improving performance, stability, and maintainability across mature systems
What can you expect?
- Writing and maintaining modern C++ code
- Taking ownership of key systems and delivering new improvements end-to-end
- Contributing to technical design and architecture discussions
- Improving development practices through reviews, testing, and engineering standards
- Helping junior engineers develop through support and mentoring
- Long-term scope to broaden into Rust / Go depending on your interests
What can you expect in return?
- Salary up to £65,000
- Strong overall benefits package - 15%+ Bonus, Profit Share Bonus & up to 10% pension.
