  • Solid grasp of modern web technologies including FastAPI, Asyncio, and database systems like PostgreSQL

  • A "Connect" mindset, thriving in collaborative settings where you actively engage with cross-functional teams and mentor junior engineers to achieve shared goals

  • A "Challenge" spirit, demonstrating exceptional problem-solving skills to tackle complex technical hurdles and proactively suggest innovative improvements to our systems and processes

  • An "Own" attitude, taking full accountability for delivering high-quality, resilient, and scalable code from conception through to production, continuously driving performance and maintainability

What you need to know about the Belfast Tech Scene

If asked to name the birthplace of the RMS Titanic, you might not say Belfast. Similarly, if asked to name Europe's leading destination for foreign direct investment in new software development, Belfast might not come to mind. Yet, both are true. The city has emerged as a tech powerhouse, recently ranked among the best in the U.K. for tech careers — especially for software developers. It also leads the U.K. with the highest percentage of software development jobs advertised.
