You’ll work on scalable, secure and maintainable systems, applying solid engineering fundamentals and using tools like GitHub Copilot pragmatically to accelerate delivery without compromising quality.

What will you do?

• Build and evolve backend services and APIs using .NET, C#, and ASP.NET Core
• Build and contribute to frontend experiences using React and TypeScrip
• Design systems for scalability, resilience, security and maintainability
• Make and drive technical decisions, balancing trade-offs and constraints
• Own services in production, including deployment, monitoring, troubleshooting and continuous improvement

• Work with Azure services across compute, storage, messaging, identity, and monitoring to build cloud-based solutions
• Collaborate closely with engineers, architects, product owners, and other stakeholders to deliver working software
• Review code, challenge assumptions and help raise the engineering bar
• Use AI-assisted tools, such as GitHub Copilot, effectively for coding, testing, analysis, and documentation

What are we looking for?

• Strong experience building and operating software systems in production
• Deep hands-on expertise with .NET, C#, and ASP.NET Core
• Solid understanding of APIs, distributed systems and integration patterns
• Proven experience with Azure and cloud-based application architecture
• Strong grasp of system design, design patterns, performance, reliability, and security
• Experience with automated testing, including unit and integration testing
• Ability to debug complex issues across services and environments
• Experience with frontend development using TypeScript and React, or willingness to work across the stack when needed
• Clear communication and ability to work effectively in cross-functional engineering teams
