Technical Lead / Software Development Manager Full-time, Permanent Location: East Kilbride, Scotland (hybrid working) Salary: Up to £80,000 per annum DOE + Benefits The Opportunity: The best Technical Lead / Software Development Manager roles strike a balance between still being close enough to the code to solve engineering problems, but also influencing architecture, mentoring developers and helping shape the direction of the platform. Unfortunately, the reality is that many experienced engineers find themselves spending more time firefighting than improving systems, attending meetings instead of building software, or being responsible for technical outcomes without having influence over the decisions that matter. This opportunity offers something different. You'll be joining an established software business with a strong engineering culture, modern technology, complex enterprise platforms and a leadership team that values technical expertise. You'll remain hands-on while developing architecture and supporting the growth of a talented development team. Why This Role Stands Out: Salary up to £80,000 per annum (may be slightly negotiable depending on experience) Annual salary reviews with regular market benchmarking Hybrid working (1 day per week remote from home) 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays Pension scheme with employer contribution and matched enhancements Health Cash Plan including 24/7 GP access, dental and optical cover Death in Service cover (4x salary) Employee Assistance Programme Paid volunteering days Discretionary bonus Modern office environment and collaborative culture Team events, knowledge sharing and continuous learning opportunities High levels of autonomy, trust and ownership Structured training and development opportunities to help you grow The opportunity to influence technical strategy within a growing technology business What the Technical Lead / Software Development Manager Will Do: This Technical Lead role combines software engineering with technical leadership. You'll work closely with developers, Product, QA and DevOps to deliver high-quality software while helping the wider team grow. You'll be responsible for: • Leading the design and development of scalable cloud-native software solutions, • Influencing architecture, engineering standards and technical decision-making, • Mentoring developers and supporting their technical and professional development, • Championing code quality, security, testing, resilience and continuous improvement, • Collaborating across Engineering, Product and QA to deliver complex software solutions, • Helping shape the future direction of the engineering function as the business continues to evolve What Youll Bring: We're looking for an experienced Technical Lead, Lead Software Engineer or Senior Full Stack Developer who enjoys solving complex technical problems while helping others succeed through strategic and supportive leadership. You'll ideally have: • Strong commercial experience developing software with Java, JavaScript and/or TypeScript, • Experience building modern web applications using React, Next.js and cloud-native architectures, • A good understanding of AWS, Infrastructure as Code, CI/CD and modern engineering practices, • Experience designing secure, scalable and resilient enterprise software solutions, • Previous experience leading technical decisions, mentoring developers and influencing engineering best practice, • The confidence to communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders Why You Should Apply: Perhaps you've reached the point where you want more influence without giving up coding. Maybe you're looking for a role where technical decisions are valued, engineering quality matters and continuous improvement isn't just something written on a company values page. Or perhaps you're ready to work alongside people who enjoy solving difficult problems, sharing knowledge, and building software they're proud of. If that sounds like the next step you're looking for, we'd love to tell you more. Apply now or contact Michelle at Leo Recruitment for a confidential conversation. You don't need a perfect CV.
