About Big Red Cloud
Big Red Cloud is one of Ireland's most established providers of accounting and payroll software, supporting thousands of small businesses, sole traders, and accountants. With the backing of Ishikawa Technologies, we're building smarter, more connected workflows, like Turbo Inventory, our streamlined inventory and stock tracking module designed for Irish SMEs.
As more businesses turn to digital solutions to manage operations, our customers depend on a robust, modern platform. We're investing in engineering talent to accelerate feature delivery, strengthen our codebase, and modernise the user experience. That's where you come in.
About the Role
As a Mid-Level Software Developer at Big Red Cloud, you'll play a key role in strengthening and modernising our Turbo Inventory product. In your first 6–12 months, your primary focus will be on improving the foundation of the product - tackling technical debt, refining CI/CD pipelines, enhancing performance, and refactoring legacy code to modern standards.
This role requires a developer who enjoys solving deep, structural problems as much as building new features. You'll collaborate closely with Product and Support teams to ensure our platform is reliable, maintainable, and ready for scalable feature growth in the future.
Near-term priorities:
* Strengthen developer documentation to support onboarding and reduce codebase risk.
* Improve build and deployment pipelines for faster, safer releases.
* Address technical debt, bug fixes, and refactoring to stabilise the platform.
Lay the groundwork for future automation and feature development.
Your Responsibilities
* Feature Development: Build and enhance product functionality in the Turbo Inventory product
* Codebase Modernisation: Refactor legacy systems, improve performance, and ensure best practices.
* Collaboration: Work with Product, Support, and Customer Success to design solutions based on customer needs.
* Quality Assurance: Write clean, maintainable code with strong test coverage.
* Documentation: Contribute to developer documentation and internal knowledge-sharing.
What Success Looks Like
* Rapid onboarding of new developers enabled by clear documentation.
* Successful rollout of automated onboarding and free-trial workflows.
* Fewer recurring bugs and faster feature delivery.
* Codebase aligned with modern standards, improving developer productivity.
What We're Looking For
Experience: 3–5 years in software development, ideally with SaaS or accounting/payroll platforms.
Core Skills:
* Backend: C#, .NET Framework / .NET Core
* Database: Microsoft SQL Server (queries, procedures, optimisation). Experience with ORM (Entity Framework, Dapper)
Frontend: JavaScript / TypeScript, React (or equivalent modern frameworks)
* APIs: RESTful API design, integration with third-party services
Cloud & DevOps: Familiarity with Azure, Docker, CI/CD pipelines
* Version Control: Git / TFVC
Mindset:
* Analytical, detail-oriented, and pragmatic problem solver.Comfortable working under architectural oversight to execute modernization tasks, ensuring consistency and reducing technical debt.
Collaboration:
* Strong communication skills; ability to work with cross-functional teams.
Bonus
* : Experience modernising legacy codebases, optimising performance at scale, or working with financial/accounting applications.
Why Join Us?
Impact: Your code powers thousands of Irish businesses every day.
Flexibility: Work remotely from anywhere in Ireland.
