Sainsburys Tech - Senior Backend Engineer - .net

We’re a multi-channel, multi-brand business serving millions of customers a day, with the UK’s largest loyalty scheme and an ever-evolving set of digital platforms. All of this equals over 1.2 billion transactions each year, presenting a volume, depth and complexity of data that few can match. We don’t think we’re exaggerating when we say we have the most exciting data set in the country. And from the insights gained, we build scalable, high-performance products using cutting-edge technology that give our customers an amazing shopping experience — like our award-winning Smartshop app. In an inclusive, agile environment, you’ll have the space to be curious, to experiment, and to solve real-world challenges. And you’ll get to see your creations in the hands of millions of people across the UK.

As a Senior .NET Engineer, you’ll apply architectural and engineering principles to define and deliver technology that providers better customer experiences and business efficiency whilst reducing business cost. We’d love for you to be yourself - analytical, curious and unafraid to learn new skills or challenge the status quo. You’ll always look to improve the way things are done in your team too.

What you'll do

Within this role, you will contribute to the design and development of large-scale high performance services using the latest Standards, React JS, SQL, MongoDB, Kubernetes and Docker including serverless functions and event-driven architecture too. 

You'll also help to implement cloud technologies such as AWS and GCP and help drive the product technical roadmap design, support services and internal frameworks that enhance the Sainsbury's Group capabilities. Throughout, you'll share your technical knowledge and ideas with the wider team. 

Who you are

You’ll have programming expertise in relational and non-relational database technologies, backed by expertise in engineering practice and architectural and engineering principles. In addition, you’ll need experience in software design and implementation, security, cloud, infrastructure as code and CI/CD and relevant hardware.

As well as all this, we’ll look for self-drive and a push for advocacy of agile/lean delivery methodologies plus a passion for delivering solutions and living the DevSecOps principles. If you also want to learn more about emerging tech and help the whole team deliver, we should be talking.
