Who You Are / Your Next Challenge

Moneycorp is modernising its payments platform, and this role is a key part of that journey. The Payment Evolution Project focuses on containerising and modernising existing applications for Azure deployment. This is a technical migration, not a major functionality rewrite—our goal is to transition to a more scalable, cloud-native architecture while maintaining stability.

As a Software Engineer, you’ll work with .NET, Azure, and Kafka, ensuring that applications are optimised for cloud deployment and aligned with modern development practices. You’ll assess the right .NET versioning strategy, manage dependency transitions (e.g., moving from MSMQ to Kafka), and ensure smooth migration of libraries and frameworks. You’ll also work on new features rollout in the existing system or new projects.

What you’ll be doing

• Modernising and containerising existing applications for Azure deployment.
• Evaluating and implementing the right .NET framework version for each application.
• Adjusting and updating code to support dependency transitions and framework updates.
• Migrating message queuing systems, specifically transitioning from MSMQ to Kafka.
• Ensuring applications are cloud-ready without unnecessary functionality rewrites.

What we’re looking for / Skills that will help you in the role

Essential:

• Strong experience with .NET 6–8 and C#.
• Deep understanding of SQL and relational databases.
• Experience with Azure (or AWS) and cloud-based architectures.
• Knowledge of Kafka for messaging and event-driven processing.
• Proficiency in Docker and containerisation.
• Strong experience developing and maintaining Web APIs.

Preferred:

• Experience in cloud native application using Azure and Kafka.
• Experience working with CI/CD pipelines.
• An understanding of WinForms & WCF for maintaining legacy applications.

Additional details

This position is full-time, permanent. The role is expected to be office-based in Coventry as part of the IT Development team. However, we have an agile flexible working policy which enables you to work up to 2 days from home if desired.

What you get in return

Salary and benefits: This role offers a competitive salary with discretionary bonus, plus a comprehensive benefits package including 25 days holiday plus a day off for your birthday, pension, BUPA private medical health insurance and more.
