Specialist Software Engineering Recruitment

MCS Support Roles That Keep Software Teams Moving

Backend, frontend and full-stack engineering roles often sit on the same hiring brief, but the challenges underneath them are rarely the same.

Delivery pressure, evolving architectures and expanding product scope mean teams need engineers who can step into live codebases and make sound decisions quickly. At the same time, engineers are looking for roles where expectations are clear, the stack makes sense, and the work matches what was discussed upfront.

This is where software hiring tends to slow down or misfire.

MCS Group supports backend, frontend and full-stack software engineering recruitment with a clear understanding of how these roles operate inside real teams. Our consultants work closely with hiring managers and engineers to define scope properly, align on technical expectations and avoid the gaps that cause roles to drift after day one.

What we have achieved

Our Partnerships

The technology industry never stands still, and neither do we.
 At MCS Group, we recruit across every major area of tech, helping businesses in Belfast, Dublin, and across the UK and Ireland find the people who move them forward.

Where Software Teams Win or Lose Talent

Software hiring usually breaks in the same places. The roles are clear on paper, but the reality is messier. Live systems, tight delivery windows, growing tech debt, and candidates who know their value.

This is where MCS Group steps in.

We work with software engineers and delivery professionals who are already operating in production environments, and with teams who need people that can contribute without slowing everything down. Our recruiters specialise by discipline, so conversations go beyond CVs into stack choices, team structure, and what “good” actually looks like in your environment.

    Backend Engineering Jobs

    Backend roles tend to surface the hardest problems first. Performance issues. Fragile integrations. Data inconsistency. Systems that have grown faster than the team supporting them.


    We recruit backend developers across Python, Java, .NET, Node and Go for teams building and maintaining production systems. The focus is on engineers who understand trade-offs, can work inside existing architectures, and don’t need perfect conditions to deliver reliably.

    Full Stack Engineering Jobs

    Full stack engineers play a critical role in teams where flexibility and context matter. We support hiring across full stack roles where engineers contribute across backend and frontend, understand system dependencies, and can work closely with product and delivery teams.


    MCS Group recruits full stack engineers across modern JavaScript frameworks, backend languages and cloud-based environments. These roles are common in product-led teams, scale-ups and businesses balancing speed with long-term platform stability.

    Web Development Jobs

    Web development remains central to many organisations, from customer-facing platforms to internal systems that support day-to-day operations.


    We recruit web developers across frontend, backend and CMS-driven environments, supporting teams that need engineers who understand performance, usability and maintainability. This includes roles focused on modern web stacks as well as teams modernising existing platforms without disrupting live users.

Software Engineering Hiring, Done Properly

Specialist Roles With Teams That Take Security Seriously

MCS Group recruits software engineers across backend, frontend, full stack, mobile, embedded, QA and delivery roles. As a specialist technology recruitment agency working across Belfast, Dublin, the UK, Ireland and the USA, we focus on engineers who have already operated in complex environments and understand how real systems behave in production.

Our recruiters work closely within defined software specialisms, giving hiring teams and candidates a clearer picture of what good looks like before the process even starts.

Our software recruitment consultants work in defined markets such as backend, frontend, full stack, mobile, embedded, QA and delivery. That specialism means better conversations with candidates and more accurate shortlists for hiring managers.

We look at where teams are under pressure. Missed deadlines, growing backlogs, fragile systems or gaps in capability. This context shapes how we search, who we approach and what good looks like for the role.

Discover More

Most experienced software engineers are not actively applying. Our network-led approach gives access to passive talent across software engineering jobs in Belfast, the UK, Ireland and the USA, including people already delivering in live systems.

Discover More

We focus on real experience, not surface-level skills. System design, problem solving, ownership and how engineers operate inside teams. That applies whether you are hiring permanently, on contract or building out delivery capability over time.
