Lead Software Engineer Manchester | Hybrid (2 Days Per Week)
Up to £85,000 20% Annual Bonus Excellent Benefits
Build software that powers a global SaaS platform. We're partnering with a highly successful international SaaS business undergoing a major engineering transformation. Following significant investment into cloud-native technology, platform modernisation and engineering capability, we're looking for an experienced Lead Software Engineer to help shape the next generation of highly scalable products used by enterprise customers across Europe.
This is a genuine opportunity to join an engineering-first organisation where technical excellence is valued just as highly as delivery.
You'll remain hands-on while leading a small, high-performing team of engineers, influencing architecture, mentoring developers and helping define engineering standards across multiple cloud-native products.
If you're passionate about modern software engineering and enjoy solving complex distributed systems problems, this is the type of role that doesn't come around often.
The Opportunity You'll work within one of the organisation's flagship product teams responsible for building highly available, cloud-native SaaS applications used at significant scale.
Working alongside Architects, Product Managers, Platform Engineers and Quality Engineers, you'll help deliver resilient distributed systems built around microservices, event-driven architecture and modern engineering practices.
This is not a people-management role disguised as leadership.
You'll still spend the majority of your time designing solutions, writing code, reviewing pull requests and helping solve challenging engineering problems whilst mentoring a team of talented developers.
What You'll Be Doing
You'll be joining during a significant period of investment, working on large-scale greenfield and platform-modernisation initiatives rather than simply maintaining legacy software.
Engineers are encouraged to influence architecture, challenge technical decisions and introduce new ideas, with clear progression into Principal Engineering, Engineering Management or Architecture as the organisation continues to grow.
