Lead the engineering standards behind a High-Growth UK SaaS platform

Software Development Manager

Location: Surrey / Hampshire | Salary: Up to £100,000 + benefits

We’re partnered with a high‑growth UK SaaS technology company building data‑driven digital products that help commercial teams better understand and engage their customers. As they scale their customer‑facing platforms, they’re looking for an experienced Software Development Manager to shape engineering standards and lead the next phase of platform evolution.

Are you a technically strong engineering leader who built your career on solid engineering foundations (whether in C# / .NET or modern JavaScript frameworks) and still care deeply about code quality, DevOps maturity, and scalable systems? If so, this is a genuinely exciting opportunity.

The Tech Environment

The platform was originally built on a Microsoft / C# / .NET foundation and has transitioned to a more modern stack, including NestJS / NodeJS, Vue, Redis, SQL Server, and Snowflake. Candidates from a strong .NET background are welcome if they have experience in modern JavaScript/TypeScript ecosystems or can demonstrate adaptability and technical depth to operate in this environment.

What matters most is engineering quality, architectural thinking, and leadership credibility, not a rigid checklist of frameworks.

You’ll balance people leadership, technical direction, and delivery performance, ensuring teams build maintainable, secure, and high-performing systems.

What We’re Looking For

This role offers real impact in a growing SaaS business for a strong engineering leader who wants to influence platform direction without stepping away from technical depth.
