.NET Tech Lead

.NET Tech Lead

Location: Southampton (23 days pw onsite, hybrid)

Salary: 80,000 - 100,000 + strong benefits package

The Opportunity

We are partnered with a growing, purpose-driven technology business in the green energy and sustainability sector, dedicated to supporting organisations on their journey to net zero. As part of their continued growth, they are scaling out a new SaaS platform and digital services designed to help clients reduce carbon emissions, optimise energy usage, and drive real-world environmental impact.

They are currently a small team of 3 but need a new tech lead to take the reins and lead the dev process. You'll spending 70% of your time on development and code with 30% leadership, management and architecture. There's also plans to grow the team so over the next 2-3 years this role will likely grow into a manager of a larger engineering team.

This is the perfect opportunity for someone who's both a talented senior/lead developer but also a strong process and people person. You'll balance technical expertise with product and software architecture and leadership and mentoring.
