The NRLA: Who we are
The NRLA is the UK’s largest organisation representing private residential landlords, a community of over 110,000 members across England and Wales. We’re on a mission to transform how landlords manage their properties, stay compliant, and operate day to day. And that means building the next generation of digital tools that will define the private rented sector for years to come.
We’re not here to be average. We’re carving out a bold digital path and building the foundations of what will become the operating system for the Private Rental Sector (PRS). To do that, we need talented, curious, forward-thinking developers who want to stretch themselves, learn new stacks, and help shape genuinely meaningful technology.
Recognised with Investors in People Gold and named by The Sunday Times as one of the UK’s best companies to work for, we offer a supportive, ambitious environment where innovation isn’t just welcomed, it’s expected. With hybrid working from our Manchester and London hubs, you’ll join a team that values professional growth, collaboration, and the desire to push boundaries.
If you want to build purposeful tech, upskill across multiple modern stacks, and play a key role in shaping the NRLA’s digital future, we’d love to hear from you.

I'm working with a highly successful tech-driven organisation in Edinburgh who are looking for a Principal Software / Data Engineer to take ownership of their growing Snowflake platform ( hybrid - 2 days in office per week ). They've recently begun their Snowflake journey after partnering with a third party to get things off the ground and are now bringing everything in-house. It's an exciting time to join, as you'll lead that transition and set the direction for how Snowflake is used across the business. This is a hands-on technical leadership role where you'll be the go-to expert for everything Snowflake related within the wider Data Platform group. You'll work closely with a talented team of Software and Data Engineers who handle everything from data integration to infrastructure and APIs. The team's technically strong but still developing their Snowflake expertise, so they're looking for someone who can guide, mentor, and help them get the most out of the platform while ensuring it's scalable, maintainable and future proof. Day-to-day, you'll lead the team to design and build robust data platform solutions in Snowflake, improve workflows, and set best practices for data integration and storage. The role sits between software and data engineering where one day you'll be deploying new infrastructure on AWS, the next you'll be writing Python to enhance a data pipeline - so are looking for individuals with experience in both fields. You'll bring a strong technical background and deep Snowflake expertise, with a solid understanding of its architecture, scalability, and how to embed it within a complex cloud-based environment. The tech stack is modern and cloud-first, built on AWS, with most of the codebase in Python (but they're pretty flexible on you're domain language). The key is your ability to lead technically, share knowledge, and drive the Snowflake strategy while remaining hands-on within your team. In return, they're offering up to 85,000 with a strong benefits package to match (including a generous bonus scheme, good pension, private healthcare and more!). The organisation support hybrid working, where you'll be expected in the office around two days a week in their Edinburgh office, joining a collaborative, forward-thinking environment where you can truly lead from the front. This is a great opportunity to have real technical influence on a major project within a well-established organisation. The foundations are in place, but there's lots of decisions to be made to help the organisation get the most from their data. If this sounds like something you'd like to hear more about, please apply or contact Matthew MacAlpine at Cathcart Technology .
