What's the role?: We're looking for brilliant, well-rounded Engineering Consultants who specialise in the .NET ecosystem. At Nimble, you're more than a developer; you're a problem-solver and trusted advisor. You are a polyglot engineer at heart - adaptable, pragmatic, and capable of driving end-to-end delivery. You thrive on taking ownership of the entire software lifecycle - seamlessly bridging the gap between business requirements and technical execution to build, deploy, and maintain complete, fit-for-purpose solutions. What you will do: End-to-End Delivery & Analysis: Shape messy backlogs, clarify ambiguous requirements, and drive features from concept to production. You don't just take tickets; you solve business problems. Drive Holistic Quality: Think in complete solutions. You evaluate "quality" against the client's reality - balancing Total Cost of Ownership, performance, scalability, maintainability, and pragmatic test automation to ensure sustainable success. Engineering in Complex Domains: Deliver robust software across everything from modern cloud-native apps to 20-year-old monoliths. You build the right solution for the client's specific constraints and deadlines. AI-Accelerated Engineering: Seamlessly integrate LLMs and AI tooling (Claude, Copilot, Cursor, etc) into your daily workflow to rapid-prototype, accelerate feature delivery, and cut through legacy complexity. Consulting & Leadership: Guide clients and small teams through uncertainty. You lead by example, bringing calm and clarity to high pressure, fast paced environments. What you need to bring: Consulting Mindset: The ability to build trust, navigate ambiguity, and maintain high performance even when requirements or environments shift. Solution Shaping & Cloud Fluency: The ability to design and shape solutions that are right for the problem at hand. You bring proven experience with cloud providers (AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud) and a solid understanding of modern architectural patterns, including Infrastructure as Code (IaC), containerised systems, and serverless architectures. Deep Technical Foundations: Strong, proven experience across the .NET ecosystem (C#, modern .NET, legacy frameworks), backed by solid SQL and JavaScript skills. Polyglot Mindset: A genuine curiosity and interest in continuous learning. You aren't dogmatic about tech stacks; you view different languages, older legacy systems, and modern front end frameworks (like React, Vue, or Angular) as tools to solve problems, and you are eager to pick them up as the project demands. AI Tooling Fluency: Hands on experience using AI coding assistants and LLMs to actively accelerate your development lifecycle. Agile Pragmatism: Experience thriving in fast paced, collaborative spaces. You aren't afraid to question the status quo and organise chaotic workflows. Who we are: Nimble Approach are a rapidly growing Product & Tech consultancy who deliver value and enhance organisations. We pride ourselves on delivering great projects to multiple clients in different industries including Healthcare, Government, Utilities, Fintech, Manufacturing and more, so there's lots of opportunity to try out new things! We believe in delivering value at pace and enhancing the organisations that we work with. This would not be possible without our amazing Nimble specialists who leave their mark everywhere they go. Our projects are diverse and different, just like our ways of working and our people. One of our key focusses is maintaining a strong culture of pragmatic, skilled, egoless people who collaborate to get things done and have lots of fun along the way. We currently have offices in Sheffield (our HQ), Leeds & Manchester, and we tend to work in a hybrid model. All we ask is that people go into the office a few times a month and for team / client meetings when required. What we offer: Private healthcare for you and a family member through Westfield Health Multiple Qualified Mental Health First Aider's with regular 1-1's available £2k champion fund to spend as you wish on your own L&D Referral scheme (£3,000) for every successful applicant Dedicated time to spend on your L&D, including time to complete courses and qualifications Flat organisational structure with lots of career progression opportunities Laptop and any practicable equipment provided (either a Mac or Windows) Regular Nimble Socials (both virtual & physical) including Escape rooms, Lunches, Award nights, Bowling, Bouldering and more! Relaxed and fun working environment Engaging and collaborative communities to be involved in A chance to be involved in company OKRs and shape how we will be in the future 25 days holiday allowance + bank holidays Company pension (with employer contributions) Equal Opportunities Statement: At Nimble Approach, we strongly believe that discrimination and victimisation is unacceptable. It is our duty to ensure that no employee or job applicant receives less favourable facilities or treatment (either directly or indirectly) in recruitment or employment on grounds of age, disability, gender / gender reassignment, marriage / civil partnership, pregnancy / maternity, race, religion or belief, sex, or sexual orientation (the protected characteristics). Our aim is that our workforce will be truly representative of society and each employee feels respected and able to give their best. We want everyone at Nimble and those applying to join us to feel safe, supported and encouraged so if we can make any adjustments to help with your application or you require any assistance, please reach out to us on and we are happy to help.
