£70–75k + Excellent Benefits |

 

Are you ready to take the lead on a major platform transformation that will support millions of transactions per second and fuel international expansion?

 

We’re building a high-impact engineering team to drive a full systems rewrite of a critical, large-scale platform — backed by significant investment and ambitious growth plans.

This is not just another coding role. We’re looking for a Software Technical Lead with a strong grasp of solution design and architecture to help define the long-term technical strategy and guide the engineering direction from the ground up.

 

What You’ll Do:

  • Lead architectural design and technical planning for a high-volume, mission-critical platform
  • Collaborate with product and engineering teams to shape scalable, resilient systems
  • Guide development best practices and technical standards across teams
  • Influence the future of a platform undergoing complete modernization

 

What We’re Looking For:

  • Proven experience in designing and architecting complex systems at scale
  • Commercial experience within web clients or server-side development
  • Knowledge of Kafka, SQL, c# , .Net, Golang or Typescript, though expertise in similar or alternative technologies is welcome.
  • Strong leadership and communication skills
  • Deep understanding of performance, scalability, and system design principles
  • Experience leading or contributing to platform rebuilds or system migrations is a bonus

 

Why Join Us?

  • £70–75k salary + excellent benefits
  • Hybrid working with offices in Manchester or Staffordshire
  • Real ownership and influence over technical decisions
  • Be part of a high-growth journey with international ambitions

 

If you're ready to step into a strategic, high-impact role and help build the backbone of a fast-scaling tech business, we’d love to hear from you.
