Remote .NET Technical Lead

Remote .NET Technical Lead

ABOUT

THE ROLE
We are working with a UK-based, technology-led organisation that builds and operates mission-critical platforms used by large enterprise and public sector clients across the UK and Europe.

They are hiring a Technical Lead / Lead Developer to strengthen technical leadership within a growing engineering function and to act as the day-to-day technical authority across multiple systems.

This is a hands-on technical leadership role. You will remain close to the code while guiding engineering standards, improving consistency and supporting delivery at scale.

• Supporting customer-facing technical conversations when required
