Force Information Systems Limited (FIS), a Harris Computer company, is currently recruiting for a Technical Consultant on a permanent, remote-working basis.
You'll be hands-on across the full delivery lifecycle: scoping customer requirements, configuring and deploying our products into customer environments, integrating with third-party systems, troubleshooting complex technical issues, and helping shape our roadmap based on what you see in the field.
This role is genuinely varied. One week you might be on-site with a police force walking through a deployment plan; the next you might be writing SQL upgrade scripts, debugging an API integration, or working alongside our developers on a new feature. You'll work across our existing estate (VB6, .NET Framework, SQL Server) and our modernisation efforts (.NET Core, Node.js, Azure).
Key Responsibilities
Lead technical implementations of our products into customer environments, including on-premise and Azure-hosted deployments
Act as the primary technical contact for customers during onboarding, integration, and post-go-live support
Configure, install, and upgrade our software stack — IIS, SQL Server, gMSA, certificates, and networking
Build and maintain integrations between our products and customer systems via REST APIs and other interfaces
Investigate and resolve technical issues across legacy and modern codebases, working closely with the development team
Produce clear technical documentation, runbooks, and customer-facing implementation guides
Contribute to product improvements based on customer feedback and field experience
Essential Skills
Strong SQL Server experience — writing complex queries, troubleshooting performance, schema design, and upgrade scripts
Solid .NET background (C#, ASP.NET, .NET Framework 4.x and/or .NET Core)
Experience working with and consuming REST APIs
Confident in customer-facing situations — able to explain technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders and manage expectations professionally
Practical experience deploying and configuring software in Windows Server environments (IIS, networking, certificates, service accounts)
A diagnostic mindset — comfortable digging into logs, traces, and unfamiliar code to find root causes
Desirable Skills
Azure experience — virtual networks, NSGs, App Services, SQL Azure, or similar
Node.js / TypeScript exposure (we have services running on this stack)
Legacy technology experience — VB6, classic ASP, Crystal Reports — would be a significant advantage given our codebase
Familiarity with regulated, public sector, or law enforcement environments
PowerShell or other automation/scripting skills
Experience with CI/CD pipelines (Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions)
