Role Summary and Impact

At Code, we create digital experiences with heart — blending creativity, technology, and insight to make products people love and businesses grow.

We’re not just building software; we’re helping our partners shape better digital futures through collaboration, experimentation, and continuous improvement.

As a Senior Software Engineer, you’ll join a cross-disciplinary team of engineers, designers, strategists, and product experts. You’ll play a key role in delivering accessible, secure, performant, and scalable applications that make a real impact — all while developing your skills and contributing to a supportive, learning-focused engineering community.

What you’ll do

• Design, build, and maintain web applications using the .NET Framework, ASP.NET MVC, and Web API.


• Apply a strong background working with CMS platforms (e.g. Umbraco, Sitecore) to build and integrate flexible content-driven solutions.


• Provide technical leadership within your team — guiding implementation, ensuring code quality, and mentoring more junior engineers.


• Collaborate directly with clients and product partners, helping translate business needs into technical solutions.


• Contribute to the modernisation of our platforms, exploring ways to adopt .NET Core, Azure, and modern front-end frameworks such as React/Next.js.


• Work closely with cross-functional teams — Product, UX, Strategy, and DevOps — to deliver exceptional digital experiences.


• Champion engineering best practices around accessibility, performance, security, and maintainability.


• Share knowledge across our Software Engineering community, contributing to the growth and standards of our discipline.

Skills and Experience

At WPP Media, we believe in the power of our culture and our people. It’s what elevates us to deliver exceptional experiences for both our clients and each other. In this role it will be critical to embrace WPP & WPP Media’s shared core values:

• Be Extraordinary by Leading Collectively to Inspire transformational Creativity.


• Create an Open environment by Balancing People and Client Experiences by Cultivating Trust.


• Lead Optimistically by Championing Growth and Development to Mobilize the Enterprise.

You’ll be an experienced Software Engineer (typically 5+ years), confident working across the full Microsoft web stack and comfortable leading by example.

We’d love to see experience with:

• C# / .NET Framework, ASP.NET MVC, and Web API.


• Strong background working with CMS platforms such as Umbraco or Sitecore.


• Familiarity with front-end technologies (HTML, CSS/Sass, JavaScript, React) to collaborate effectively in full-stack teams.


• Exposure to Azure, cloud-hosted infrastructure, and modern DevOps practices.


• Knowledge of .NET Core and a keen interest in modernising legacy systems.


• Strong communication and collaboration skills — able to work directly with clients and internal stakeholders.


• A passion for mentoring, improving standards, and delivering high-quality solutions.
