Job Description

Bauer Media Outdoor UK is one of the leading Out of Home media owners, with more than 33,000 advertising sites in our portfolio. Our talented team of over 650 people work in 14 locations across the country, creating and delivering some of the most memorable advertising campaigns in the UK. 

Bauer Media Outdoor Technic are a world leader in outdoor digital signage solutions and delivering digital intelligence. A total service is provided across the UK and Europe from hardware development and manufacturing to customer back-end services.

Our Remote Device Management (RDM®) software delivers real-time performance data across our entire screen network, giving customers 24-hour insight and confidence in the consistent delivery of high-quality out-of-home content. Our technology spans environmental monitoring, telecoms and wireless infrastructure, and city information platforms.

About the role

This role sits within our Software & Firmware team — a nine-strong, multi-discipline group responsible for three interconnected areas of our product ecosystem:

• Low-level sign-side firmware (C) that monitors and operates sign hardware, including environmental systems and display signalling
• Higher-level sign-side application services (C#) managing all aspects of sign operations
• Server-side back-end systems (C#) that manage and monitor the wider sign estate

We are looking for a mid-level C# developer to contribute primarily to the sign-side application services layer. The work is a compelling mix of contributing to new designs and maintaining and improving existing systems — and experience with the latter is a genuinely valuable source of insight for the former.

This is a four-day working week role — you will work Monday to Thursday and be paid for five days.

• Stay current with emerging technologies, industry trends and relevant training
