.NET Developer

Principal Software Engineer

Fully Remote | Ireland or UK

Highly competitive salary package with an excellent benefits offering.

I’m working with an established software business looking for a Principal Software Engineer to shape the technical direction of a mature, business-critical software platform.

This is a hands-on engineering role focused on software architecture, complex problem-solving and performance optimisation. You’ll influence key technical decisions, drive improvements across the platform and mentor developers, without formal people-management responsibilities.

Technical Requirements

  • Extensive experience with C#, .NET Framework and/or .NET Core.
  • Strong knowledge of software architecture, design patterns and scalable, maintainable enterprise applications.
  • Advanced SQL Server experience within database-driven systems.
  • Expertise in performance profiling, debugging, optimisation and resolving complex technical challenges.
  • Experience developing across desktop and web applications within established software products.
  • Proven ability to influence architectural decisions, lead complex development initiatives and mentor engineers.
  • Interest in AI tools and emerging technologies, with experience applying them to improve development workflows or engineering practices.

Desirable: DevExpress and WinForms experience, alongside exposure to Redis, MongoDB and Azure DevOps.
