Location: Cambridge

Salary: up to £55,000 DOE

Why This Role Exists

Redgate's internal systems, covering data, security, purchasing, licensing, identity, authentication and usage, keep the wider business and thousands of customers running smoothly. As the company scales and takes on new commercial offerings, the Shared Applications & Services group needs engineers who can help keep that platform healthy, resilient and ready for what's next. This role gives a mid-level engineer real ownership over meaningful features while building the deeper technical and architectural understanding needed to grow further.

About Redgate

Redgate brings together people who want to do their best work in an environment built on trust, accountability, and collaboration.

We build solutions that help data professionals securely manage the data and databases that their organisations depend on, a space that's only becoming more critical as systems scale, data regulations increase, and AI adoption accelerates.

AI at Redgate

By 2028, Redgate will operate as an expert-plus-agent company, domain experts amplified by AI, delivering customer value at a pace our peers can't match.

AI handles the heavy lifting. Our people control the judgement. Everyone at Redgate works with Claude, giving you access to the best AI tools from day one.

Why Join the Shared Applications & Services Team?

You'll join a small, cross-functional team, made up of a Tech Lead, Lead Software Engineer, Product Owner and fellow engineers, alongside a Shared Applications & Services Manager and an architect who provide direction and support at the group level.
There's a coaching function in place to help you get unblocked, and real scope to grow your technical and architectural understanding as you take on more.
The team cares about craft, collaboration and quality, and values sustainable delivery: good ways of working and time to improve how you build, not just what you ship.

About the Role

As a Software Engineer (Mid), you'll independently deliver significant features end-to-end across systems that the whole business relies on, seeking support as needed while continuing to build your knowledge of design principles, testing methods and Redgate's internal systems.

Work across systems spanning data, security, purchasing, licensing, identity, authentication and usage, supporting both product engineering teams and the wider business
Real scope to influence architectural decisions and deepen your understanding of how Redgate's platform is designed and operated
Take ownership of production issues, from investigation through to resolution and prevention
Exposure to a broad tech stack spanning C#/.NET, React, Azure, event-driven architecture and observability tooling
A role structured around learning while delivering: broadening your technical skills and system knowledge while contributing real value from day one

What Makes You a Great Fit

Solid experience with modern C#/.NET, SQL, source control and CI/CD pipelines, and confidence applying design principles and architectural patterns with an understanding of trade-offs in context
A bias for simplicity and maintainability, backed by strong engineering practices including unit testing, code review, debugging and safe change management
Awareness of distributed systems and operational risk, such as timeouts, retries, versioning and partial failures, and the judgement to apply this when changing shared or production systems
Ability to investigate production and support issues using logs, telemetry, database queries and service-level diagnostics
Strong communication skills, in person and in writing, particularly when explaining technical findings, risks or trade-offs to engineering and product partners

What We Offer

Salary range: Up to £55,000

Hybrid working: home and Cambridge office
Monthly wellbeing allowance and generous paid time off
Genuine investment in learning, development, and career progression
Private health insurance

Our interview process is straightforward and consistent. You'll find more detail on our typical hiring process below, so you know what's coming and why.
