Senior Digital Specialist - .NET Developer (Flexibly located within Scotland)

Senior Digital Specialist .NET Developer (Flexibly located within Scotland) It’s not every job where you make a difference for the people of Scotland—but that’s what’s behind every role here at Scottish Water. Our work keeps Scotland’s water flowing, from reservoir to tap and from sewer to treatment plant. Behind the scenes, we’re transforming how we do it, building smarter systems and stronger digital platforms that underpin vital public services. Do you want your code to make a real-world impact? We’re looking for a talented .NET Developer to join our growing team—someone who thrives on challenge, is passionate about clean, high-quality code, and wants to work on meaningful projects that benefit communities across Scotland. In this role, you’ll help deliver innovative solutions across web, mobile, and cloud using the Microsoft stack and Azure platform. In return, you’ll be part of an open, collaborative environment with a genuine focus on work-life balance, where your skills will be supported and nurtured. What you'll do As a .NET Developer, you’ll be responsible for designing, developing, and maintaining robust .NET applications, including mobile apps and cloud services. You’ll contribute to the design, deployment, and management of Azure resources and make use of Azure DevOps to manage repositories and CI/CD pipelines. Collaboration is key here—you’ll work closely with product owners, designers, and fellow developers in Agile ceremonies, actively participating in code reviews, design discussions, and planning sessions. Sharing knowledge and mentoring others will be part of your routine, as well as maintaining a strong focus on user experience for both internal and external users. What you'll bring We’re looking for someone with proven experience as a .NET Full Stack Developer, with strong expertise in C# and the broader .NET ecosystem. You’ll bring hands-on experience in mobile application development—ideally using Xamarin or .NET MAUI—and have solid knowledge of Azure DevOps and associated Azure services. Experience building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines is essential, along with a passion for clean, maintainable code and well-architected systems. Communication skills are key—you’ll be expected to explain the “why” as well as the “how,” and confidently engage with stakeholders at all levels. Additional experience with Xamarin or .NET MAUI, Agile/Scrum practices, Git, and modern version control workflows is advantageous. An understanding of how to build scalable, secure, cloud-native applications will be a definite plus. Looking out for you At Scottish Water, we look after our people. While the work we do is important, we also believe in supporting a healthy work-life balance. You’ll receive 38 days of annual leave (including public holidays), with the option to buy five more, and paid time off to volunteer in your community. We offer family-friendly policies for life events like adoption, maternity, and parental leave, and embrace flexible working for everyday life. Looking ahead, our defined benefit, contribution pension scheme provides the security of knowing what you’ll get when you retire, and we offer life insurance too. On top of that, you’ll receive an annual company bonus and access to SW Splash—our rewards programme that helps you save on holidays, bills, and shopping This role is graded at Grade 7.

If you’re interested in this job, but don’t tick all the boxes, apply anyway! We hardly ever hire people who can do every part of a job from Day One. Everyone has a learning curve. So don’t rule yourself out! Let us know if there are any changes we can make to our recruitment process to help you perform at your best. Lots of our people have disabilities or neurodiverse conditions (including some of our recruiters!). We're also aware that some people might be experiencing temporary challenges because of life events, like menopause. We’re very used to making adjustments, so please don’t be afraid to ask. As part of our commitment to developing a flourishing Scotland, it’s important that all our employees are Scottish taxpayers. If you join us, your home address will need to be in Scotland. If you don’t already live here, you'll need to commit to moving here within your first three months. Finally (finally!), candidates who haven’t submitted an application in the last 12 months will have their records removed from our recruitment database. You won’t need to do anything. Your data will be automatically deleted. We’re here to help. Ask us anything
