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
