Why This Organisation

Their engineering teams build and maintain business critical systems that process enormous volumes of data and transactions daily. Self organising, cross functional Agile teams, a genuine focus on cloud native architecture and automation, and a culture built around continuous improvement and knowledge sharing.

This is a company that is genuinely investing in Belfast. They have hired 18 engineers here already this year and to support that growth they have moved into a brand new office in Belfast city centre, purpose built to house the expanding team and give engineers the environment they need to do their best work. The Belfast team is not a satellite office doing maintenance work.

It is a core part of a global engineering organisation tackling complex, large scale problems with modern technology and real autonomy.

This particular role sits within a brand new team building a next generation platform in direct partnership with Amazon Web Services. You would be working alongside AWS engineers, learning from some of the best technical minds in the industry, on a greenfield build at global scale. For an engineer looking to accelerate their growth, work on genuinely cutting edge cloud architecture and do so within a business that invests seriously in its people, this is a standout opportunity.

The Role and What It Can Do For Your Career

This is a Software Engineer position within a newly formed team delivering a next generation platform in partnership with AWS. You will contribute to solution design and development with a focus on back end services and APIs in .NET C# within a cloud based distributed architecture, implement infrastructure as code using AWS CDK, and ensure high quality code through unit and automated testing. Working closely with senior engineers, you will continuously develop your technical skills while contributing to a platform that operates at global scale.

The career value is significant. You will be working alongside AWS engineers at the cutting edge of cloud native architecture, on systems that operate at genuine global scale. Continuous learning is built into the role and the team structure is designed to help engineers grow quickly.

Engineers who join now are well placed to grow into senior and principal roles as the Belfast hub continues to expand.

Key Responsibilities:

• Contribute to solution design and development with a focus on back end services and APIs in .NET C# within a cloud based distributed architecture
• Implement and maintain infrastructure as code using AWS CDK with Python to automate deployment and resource management
• Ensure high quality code through unit testing, automated testing and adherence to best practices
• Communicate architecture principles and design decisions clearly to team members and stakeholders
• Collaborate with cross functional teams including BAs, QA and PMs to deliver solutions aligned with business requirements
• Support Agile delivery by engaging in planning, estimation and prioritisation activities
• Troubleshoot and resolve issues promptly to minimise business impact
• Contribute to the modernisation and simplification of the technology landscape
• Maintain clear documentation of code, processes and system configurations
• Demonstrate T shaped skills, contributing across development areas and supporting team members in building their own breadth of expertise

What you will need:

• Professional experience with C# and .NET 8 or above
• Experience working on back end services and APIs
• Ability to work with Business Analysts and Product Owners to clarify requirements and constructively challenge assumptions
• Experience in technical platform teams delivering reusable services across multiple projects
• Familiarity with RESTful APIs, GraphQL and CSS tooling such as Tailwind
• Strong understanding of version control using Git

Nice to Have:

• Experience with AWS CDK or other infrastructure as code tooling
• Contribution to open source projects
• Exposure to cloud native or distributed systems architecture

Why You Should Apply Now

Software Engineer roles on a greenfield AWS partnership platform, within a world leading technology organisation that is actively growing its Belfast engineering hub, are rare. The brand new Belfast city centre office, the 12 engineers hired already this year and the long term investment commitment make this a place worth building a career. The continuous learning culture and direct access to AWS expertise mean you will grow faster here than almost anywhere else.

Salary up to £55,000. Hybrid working from Belfast.
