  • Contribute to proposals, technical documentation, demos, webinars, and training sessions.
  • Collaborate across geographically distributed teams, sharing knowledge on emerging technologies.
What We’re Looking For
  • 9–12 years’ experience in SaaS/product-focused environments.
  • Strong hands-on software development skills: C#/.NET, SQL Server, React.
  • Expertise with Microsoft Azure services, including deployment and Marketplace integration.
  • Experience with SaaS product development and private/public cloud offerings.
  • Excellent communication and client-facing skills.
  • Ability to lead technical discussions, propose architectures, and drive solutions.
  • Entrepreneurial mindset, adaptable, and commercially aware.
Desirable:
  • Experience in SharePoint or Enterprise Content Management.
  • Exposure to AI/ML technologies applied in enterprise SaaS contexts.
Why This Role Is Exciting
  • Work on cutting-edge AI-driven SaaS products and data modernisation projects.
  • Collaborate with enterprise clients across diverse industries such as finance, government, legal, and engineering.
  • Competitive salary with discretionary performance bonus.
  • Flexible hybrid working and open, innovative culture.
  • Private health insurance and 25 days’ holiday per year.
  • Fast career progression and exposure to both product development and client delivery.
If you’re a technical architect with a passion for SaaS, Microsoft technologies, and real-world client impact, this is a role that will challenge and inspire you.
