27th August 2021

We're on the lookout for Software Developers

Senior C#/.Net Software Developer – Remote or Office-based

Are you an ambitious Software Developer who wants to take ownership of an exciting growth product that is seeing significant sales growth?
Would you like to be given huge autonomy to make your own decisions about the architecture and design of a product you ‘own’?
Would you like to be a key part of the success story of a product that is seeing considerable demand across the UK and beyond?
Would you like to work for a small company so you get the chance to make a difference rather than being another cog in a big machine?
Would you like to have the flexibility either to continue to work from home (UK based) or to be office-based (or a mixture)?

About Us

This is an exciting opportunity to be a large part of something small, but which is seeing significant growth. It’s your opportunity to shape the technology, make your own decisions about architecture, and ultimately drive the success of this product. As sales of the product increase, who knows what the future could hold! We want someone who will take ownership of the success and who will benefit accordingly.

The Role

We are based in Inverness and would be very happy for you to be based in our office, but we would be equally happy for you to work from home (UK based), with visits to the office from time to time to help with training and personal development.

The role will involve working closely with our Product Manager and our Managing Director and liaising with our customers in order to prioritise development work. You will then be responsible for deciding the best use of technology so as to deliver a continually evolving high quality product and you will do the coding to put your designs into practice. You will have wide autonomy to explore new technologies and use them where suitable.

From time to time, you will also be called on to work on other development projects.
