The Role

We are seeking a highly skilled Senior .NET Engineer to join our dynamic team. The ideal candidate will have extensive experience in designing and developing high-performance, scalable applications using C#, the .NET Framework, and TypeScript. The role involves implementing automated testing and leveraging GitHub Actions for CI/CD pipelines. The candidate should also be proficient in production debugging and possess excellent communication skills. Knowledge and experience with AWS cloud services are also essential.

What You Will Do

• High-Performance, Distributed, and Scalable Application Design:
• Architect, design, and maintain distributed applications, ensuring high performance, scalability, and security.
• Full-Stack Development:
• Develop backend services (primarily C#/.NET and TypeScript) and cloud APIs, as well as modern, responsive front-end applications using TypeScript/React.
• Microservices Architecture:
• Design and implement loosely coupled, independently deployable services using AWS services such as DynamoDB, RDS, SQS, Lambda, API Gateway, and others.
• Automated Testing:
• Create and maintain automated unit, integration, contract, and end-to-end tests across microservices and UI layers.
• CI/CD Pipelines:
• Use GitHub Actions to implement and maintain CI/CD pipelines for both backend services and front-end applications.
• Production Debugging & Optimization:
• Diagnose and resolve production issues in distributed systems, including service-to-service communication, CPU/memory/network bottlenecks, and AWS service performance.
• Observability & Operational Excellence:
• Instrument services using OpenTelemetry (or equivalent) to enable earlier fault detection, clearer alerting, and stronger operational visibility. Contribute to SLO definition and MTTR reduction efforts across the platform.
• Collaboration & Communication:
• Work closely with product managers, tech leads, and other engineers to deliver reliable, maintainable, and scalable solutions. Communicate technical decisions clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
