Role: Senior Engineer (.NET, AWS & AI Engineering)

Department: Engineering

CreateFuture is an AI-native consulting partner where people do work that matters and are supported to do it well. We work side by

side with our clients, challenging what’s not working and helping them to build the future.

We work alongside organisations such as PayPal, adidas, NatWest, FanDuel, and Money Saving Expert, building digital products and

services that make a difference while always putting people first. Our commitment to craft, quality, and culture has helped us

scale to over 600 people in just a few years.

ABOUT THE ROLE AND TEAM:

We are seeking an experienced Senior Engineer with a strong background in .NET, AWS, and modern AI-assisted engineering practices

to join a team delivering and modernising a broad range of business-critical applications and services. This role combines

hands-on software engineering with technical leadership responsibilities, helping drive engineering quality, platform improvement,

and modern development practices across a varied .NET landscape.

The successful candidate will work across a diverse technology stack that includes legacy .NET Framework applications, WCF and WPF

services, alongside modern applications being developed on the latest versions of .NET through to .NET 10. You will play a key

role in building scalable cloud-native solutions, improving existing systems, and helping shape engineering standards and delivery

practices.

This role requires someone comfortable operating within challenging technical environments, able to work closely with engineering

teams and stakeholders to simplify, improve, and evolve existing services. Strong communication and stakeholder management skills

are essential, as many existing platforms and services have significant operational and organisational investment behind them.

Contribute to frontend application development using Next.js or similar modern JavaScript frameworks.
Collaborate with engineering teams and stakeholders to deliver pragmatic technical solutions.
Promote best practices in software engineering, maintainability, scalability, and operational excellence.
Support teams through technical challenges and modernisation initiatives.

Work effectively with stakeholders across the business, navigating complex and sensitive technical discussions where required.

REQUIRED EXPERIENCE

Strong experience as a Senior Software Engineer working within .NET environments.
Good experience across both modern .NET and legacy .NET Framework applications.
Strong experience with AWS cloud technologies.
Experience implementing Infrastructure as Code using Terraform.
Good understanding of AI-assisted development tooling and harness engineering concepts, with active engagement in the space.
Experience working within complex or evolving technical environments.
Frontend development experience using Next.js or similar JavaScript frameworks.
Strong communication and stakeholder management skills.
Comfortable working hands-on within challenging technical environments.

Ability to work collaboratively across engineering and business teams.

NICE TO HAVE

Experience modernising legacy enterprise applications and services.
Exposure to WCF, WPF, and broader legacy Microsoft technology stacks.
Experience supporting platform consolidation or transformation initiatives.
Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines, DevOps practices, and engineering automation tooling.

be themselves and do their best work.
