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.
WHAT YOU WILL BE DOING
• Acting as the technical lead for a distributed engineering team
• Writing production code across both backend and frontend, depending on project phase
• Reviewing code and improving quality, testing and consistency
• Leading technical discussions and day-to-day decision making
• Mentoring developers through code reviews and technical guidance
• Supporting customer-facing technical conversations when required
• Working closely with senior engineering leadership on delivery and architecture
This is not a pure architect role and not a hands-off management position.
TECH STACK
This is a genuinely full-stack role with work split roughly 50/50, depending on priorities.

AI & ENGINEERING PRACTICES
AI-assisted development tools are already in use within the team.
You will help:
• Define sensible and consistent use of AI tools
• Introduce guardrails and best practices
• Use AI to improve productivity and code quality while maintaining engineering judgement
TEAM & STRUCTURE
• Lean, senior engineering team
• This role sits between the development team and senior engineering leadership
• No formal line management initially, but clear technical ownership
REMOTE WORKING

• Majority home-based
