In your role, you’ll be focused on…

We’re a team of global innovators, who cherish diverse perspectives that fuel our mission; to simplify the world of work for SMBs worldwide. 

As a Software Engineer (.NET), you will be working with Partnerships and Payroll Team to continue the development and modernising of our Payroll system, where we’re on a journey of moving to a service-orientated and microservices mixed architecture, following our .Net Core migration. Plus all of the new features and enhancements you’ll get to design and put into production.

You have a flexible / growth mindset, with a strong desire to continuously learn – our software roles require you to be able to work autonomously as well as a member of a team.

You’ll accelerate your career quickly, working with smart people across the APAC and UK regions, in a fully remote, flexible, and casual environment. We also encourage our teams to work smart, leveraging Github Copilot and other generative AI tech.

As a Software Engineer (.NET), you’ll be:

• Work on the technology roadmap with Product Owners, designing solutions with your squad, and new feature development, through to production, improving/optimizing and maintenance
• Debug and perform root cause analysis for application issues
• Perform tests and quality checks on your code – you own the quality and security of the code you create
• Take initiative in recommending improvements to the development process
• Proactively identify application pain points and suggest mitigation strategies
• Perform peer reviews of code changes
• Maintain documentation and help articles for new/updated features
• Provide training sessions for the support team for new features
