- Own delivery readiness, including release quality, performance, and maintainability
Must‑Have Technical Skills (Core)
- Strong C# backend development experience with .NET Core
- Proven experience designing and building microservices‑based architecture
- Expertise in backend design patterns, APIs, and integration strategies
- Solid understanding of cloud‑native application design

- Database Experience. SQL Server
- Cloud experience with AWS (Azure experience is also acceptable)
- Exposure to modern DevOps, CI/CD pipelines, and containerization

- Note: Frontend expertise is not mandatory; backend architectural depth is the priority.
Ideal Profile
- Strong product engineering mindset (experience in product development environments preferred)
- Comfortable balancing architecture ownership with hands‑on coding
- Able to drive clarity in ambiguous problem spaces and simplify complex technical requirements
- Passionate about design quality, clean code, and long‑term maintainability
What We Offer
- Opportunity to own architecture for a business‑critical product
- High‑impact role with technical independence and visibility
- Collaborative, engineering‑driven culture focused on quality and innovation

Onsite roles require full-time presence in the company’s facilities.
Field roles are most effectively done outside of the company’s main facilities, generally at the customers’ or suppliers’ locations.
