Award winning Digital Agency, based in Glasgow are looking for a skilled Lead Software Engineer with strong .Net & Azure skills to join their agile team. Opportunity to work within an established Digital Team, at a really stable and mature organisation.

The company have been running successfully for well over 20 years now. Their main HQ is based in Glasgow and they're looking for people who are keen to get in to the office a couple of times a week!

You'll join a large digital team of roughly 30 that boasts Back-End, Front-End & Full Stack Developers, UX Designers, Testers, Project Managers, Tech Leads and many more! It's a really good learning environment and great place to bounce ideas off other Developers / tech enthusiasts. You'll be leading one of their core cross-functional teams to deliver eneterprise level projects, remaining hands on with .Net in the back end and working in a cloud hosted environment with Azure.

The work will be really varied from helping a start-up develop their main platform, to helping a globally known organisation create a whole new website and image for themselves - they are really busy with work just now, so like most agencies you may have a couple of projects to juggle at once so they are keen for people that have experience working in fast paced environments.

You'll ideally have;
** Solid Experience with C#/.Net
** Experience with Microsoft Azure
** Knowledge of building APIs

This role would suit an ambitious Senior / Lead Software Engineer that is keen to work in a fast paced environment and to lead a large digital team.

In return the company are offering a salary from £70k to £80k plus some great benefits. It's a hybrid role so you'll be expected to be on site in their Glasgow office twice a week.

If you're interested in finding out more and have experience with most of the skills listed, please apply and / or give Max at Cathcart Technology a call.

Tips

We can help you prepare interviews and offer some great tips to help candidates get the best possible start.

Process

Before we assess a candidate and put them forward, we’ll do a phone interview to get a better understanding of the type you’re looking for, your goals and plans.

Preparation

We know exacly what employers are looking, especially our clients, because they told us. We can help you prepare for the interview and shape up for meeting their team.

Branding

Personal branding is a term you may or may not be familiar with. In our connected world, it pays to be fully prepared for what happens when employees search your name.

Our clients

Candidates

Never have a I met a recruiter like him, who embeds himself in the community so thoroughly in a way that could only be genuine. From our conversations, he has shown an understanding of the industry I would expect from a local CTO.

MI Analyst – Bolton

It was a breath of fresh air – She is professional and approachable and will be there to help you every step of the way. Other recruiters give you the hard sell and the ‘best friend routine’ to get you on board and then just leave you guessing, but not here… She’s the real deal

Solutions Architect – Glasgow

He is the most honest, thorough and experienced recruitment consultant I have ever dealt with. If he can’t help you, he’ll tell you rather than spinning a yarn and putting you forward for jobs that aren’t suitable.

Technical Author – Edinburgh

I can say with total sincerity I’ve never dealt with a more professional, knowledgeable and personable recruitment firm in fifteen years of contracting. They helped my wife and I relocate to Edinburgh with our five month old son and it’s in no small part to their tips and recommendations that we’ve settled in so quickly.

Transformation Consultant – Leeds

Absolutely fantastic throughout my interview process, and I cannot recommend him highly enough! First of all, he is an absolutely brilliant communicator and extremely reliable. On top of all of his brilliant recruitment skills, it was amazing to see how genuinely excited he was for me when I received my offer. This truly conveyed to me how much he cares about his clients.

Software Engineer – Edinburgh

She was friendly, communicative and informative, talked me through the process and gave me good advice at every stage.

Software Engineer – Manchester

She even was able to help get a firmer offer as I was offered two roles on the same day. I felt she went over and above to get the best offer she could for me without selling myself short.

QA Engineer – Glasgow

Compared to other recruiters I have worked with she seemed genuinely interested in helping me with my job search rather than just fulfilling quotas.

Software Developer – Lincoln

Equal parts friendly and professional, never once coming across as simply going through the motions and made the whole thing as painless as possible for all parties

Software Developer – Glasgow

I’ve never written a recommendation for a recruiter before, so it must show how impressed I am!

Software Developer – Northampton

I have had dealings with the majority of recruitment agencies in this country and beyond. He really stands out from the crowd and the IT industry would benefit from more people like him.

Software Developer – Glasgow

A friend looking after me, that’s how I felt. His friendly character made the whole process way easier and enjoyable, he also managed to get me one of the most interesting work opportunities. I’m really glad our paths have crossed.

Software Engineer - Edinburgh

THE BEST test recruiter I’ve had the pleasure of working with, from start to finish. She provided me with training resources and is an organiser and participant in testing events. She really has taken the time to fully understand the testing principles.

Test Analyst – Aberdeen

He stood out in a world of poorly informed, unreliable and frankly annoying recruiters as a breath of fresh air.

Data Scientist – Manchester

He goes out of his way to ensure you are prepared for your interview and I particularly appreciated his professional no nonsense approach to working with me to find a new position.
