Due to a strong pipeline of upcoming projects, they are seeking talented Software Engineers who can operate across a variety of modern tech stacks and contribute to multiple high-impact engagements.

The Role

This is a highly technical, hands-on engineering role suited to developers who enjoy variety and solving complex problems across different domains. You will have the opportunity to work across several greenfield and scaling projects, including:

• Modern full-stack platforms (React, TypeScript, GraphQL, NestJS)

• Event-driven systems leveraging cloud-native architectures

• Data and AI-driven solutions using GCP and advanced data tooling

• Backend and microservices environments using Java, Python, and Node.js

You'll be building scalable systems end-to-end, contributing to architecture, and working closely with both internal teams and external clients.

What You'll Be Doing

• Designing and building scalable, high-performance applications across backend and full-stack environments

• Developing APIs, microservices, and event-driven systems

• Working across cloud-native infrastructure (primarily GCP) including serverless and containerised environments

• Contributing to data pipelines, integrations, and AI-enabled features

• Collaborating on system design and architectural decisions

• Implementing CI/CD pipelines and DevOps best practices

• Working closely with clients to deliver robust, production-ready solutions

What You'll Need

• Strong commercial experience in software development (Java, Python, TypeScript, or JavaScript)

• Experience with modern frameworks (e.g. React, Node.js/NestJS, Spring, etc.)

• Solid understanding of APIs, microservices, and distributed systems

• Experience working with SQL databases (PostgreSQL preferred)

• Exposure to cloud platforms (GCP, AWS, or Azure) and containerisation (Docker/Kubernetes)

• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, etc.)

• A flexible mindset and ability to work across multiple tech stacks and projects

Nice to Have

• Experience with event-driven architecture (Pub/Sub, Kafka, etc.)

• Exposure to data/AI tooling or data pipelines

• Experience with GraphQL and modern frontend tooling (Next.js, Vite)

• Knowledge of observability tools (e.g. OpenTelemetry)

What's in it for You

• Work across diverse, cutting-edge projects spanning cloud, data, AI, and full-stack engineering

• Strong exposure to modern GCP-based architectures and tooling

• Opportunity to influence technical direction and architecture

• Hybrid working model

• Competitive salary and benefits

• A collaborative, engineering-led culture with real ownership and growth opportunities

This is an excellent opportunity for a versatile software engineer who enjoys working across different technologies and wants to be part of a high-growth consultancy delivering complex, real-world systems.
