About This Job

The Lead Software Engineer, OutSystems is a highly driven senior technical contributor and team lead responsible for architecting, building, and governing high-quality OutSystems applications that support critical banking operations. This role demands deep platform expertise, a strong curiosity about underlying business processes, and the ability to bridge technical execution with business stakeholder needs. You will work hands-on across both OutSystems 11 (O11) and OutSystems Developer Cloud (ODC), guiding a team of developers, setting coding and architecture standards, and ensuring delivery meets the security, performance, and compliance standards required in a regulated financial services environment.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

Technical Design & Architecture

• Lead the design and architecture of OutSystems applications using the 4-Layer Canvas (O11) and ODC domain-driven design patterns.

• Identify non-functional requirements, integration needs, and common style guides across all OutSystems applications in the portfolio.

• Assess existing applications for performance, architecture quality, and adherence to best practices; recommend and implement improvements.

Hands-On Full-Stack Development

• Develop complex OutSystems web and mobile applications in both O11 (Service Studio, Integration Studio) and ODC (ODC Studio, ODC Portal) environments.

• Build and maintain REST/SOAP integrations with core banking systems, trading platforms, CRM solutions, and third-party financial services APIs.

• Extend OutSystems with C#/.NET when platform-native capabilities are insufficient for the required solution.

• Implement responsive UI/UX using OutSystems UI frameworks, Angular, or React as applicable; adhere to accessibility and brand standards.

Technical Leadership & Mentoring

• Conduct structured code reviews; provide actionable, constructive feedback aligned to OutSystems architecture best practices and secure coding standards.

• Mentor junior and mid-level developers; actively support team members' OutSystems certification journeys (Associate through Professional/Architect levels).

• Lead technical grooming sessions, design reviews, and solution walkthroughs with development, architecture, and QA teams.

• Act as the OutSystems subject-matter expert (SME) for platform queries, escalations, and architectural decisions within the team.

DevOps, Performance & Delivery

• Manage application deployments via LifeTime (O11) and ODC Portal, including environment promotion, hotfix management, and rollback procedures.

• Collaborate with DevOps/DevSecOps teams on CI/CD pipeline integration and infrastructure-as-code practices for OutSystems applications.

• Proactively identify and resolve performance bottlenecks, memory issues, and integration failures using OutSystems performance profiling and monitoring tools.

• Participate in release planning, sprint ceremonies, and capacity estimation; support multi-team or dual-shore delivery environments when applicable.

Technical Competencies

• OutSystems Platform Mastery: Deep O11 expertise and working ODC knowledge; able to guide platform evolution and migration decisions.

• Full-Stack Depth: Extends OutSystems with C#/.NET, SQL, and front-end frameworks when the platform requires it — not just a low-code developer.

• Solution Architecture: Translates complex business requirements into clean, performant, and maintainable OutSystems designs.

• Integration Fluency: Confident building and debugging enterprise integrations across diverse banking system landscapes.

• Security Mindset: Proactively identifies and mitigates application-layer security risks; comfortable in audit and compliance conversations.

• Business Curiosity: Highly driven to understand the business processes behind the technology, not just the technical ticket in front of them.

REQUIREMENTS:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related STEM discipline.

• 7+ years of overall software development experience, with at least 5 years of hands-on OutSystems development (O11 required).

• Strong full-stack development foundation: proficiency in .NET/C#, SQL Server (or equivalent RDBMS), JavaScript, HTML, and CSS.

• Demonstrated experience delivering OutSystems applications in a financial services, banking, or similarly regulated environment.

• Deep command of OutSystems development tools: Service Studio, Integration Studio, LifeTime (O11); ODC Studio and ODC Portal.

• Proven ability to design and build enterprise REST/SOAP integrations and debug complex API-driven workflows within OutSystems.

• Experience with CI/CD pipelines, DevOps practices, and version control (Git or equivalent) in an OutSystems delivery context.

• Strong understanding of SDLC, Agile/Scrum methodology, and associated tooling (Jira, Azure DevOps, Confluence).

• Experience working on integrating OutSystems with external systems.

• ​Exceptional work ethic, comfortable working in a fast-paced and dynamic environment, and the ability to independently manage a workload with multiple priorities

PREFERRED

• OutSystems Professional Developer or Architecture Specialist certification (or commitment to achieve within 6 months of hire).

• Experience with ODC (OutSystems Developer Cloud): domain modeling, external libraries, ODC Portal deployment, and cloud-native architecture patterns.

• Proficiency in front-end frameworks used alongside OutSystems: Angular 10+, React, or TypeScript.

• Experience integrating OutSystems with core banking platforms, payment gateways, clearing systems, or financial data APIs.

• Exposure to OWASP Top 10 remediation and penetration testing response within a low-code/OutSystems context.

• Prior experience in multi-team, dual-shore, or accelerated delivery environments.

• Familiarity with AI Mentor Studio, Agent Builder / Agent Workbench, and ODC/Service Studio AI-assisted features

• "AI-Forward Mindset" competency covering OutSystems AI tooling + non-OutSystems tools
