Responsibilities

  • Architect and implement sophisticated legal domains using Domain-Driven Design (DDD), defining bounded contexts, aggregates, domain events, and a shared ubiquitous language.
  • Model resilient, event-sourced systems with Marten, leveraging multi-document sessions, projections, and tenanted document storage in PostgreSQL.
  • Design and deliver asynchronous, idempotent message handlers using Wolverine, with built-in retry policies, dead-letter queues, and full observability.
  • Optimize PostgreSQL performance under high-throughput workloads using indexing, partitioning, and query tuning.
  • Drive end-to-end feature ownership—from domain modeling and REST API design to CI/CD automation, observability, and production monitoring.
  • Establish and enforce engineering excellence through code reviews, architectural decision records (ADRs), and comprehensive test coverage (unit, integration, contract).
  • Build in enough resiliency or be prepared to troubleshoot and resolve the technical issues, no matter the hour.
  • Mentor mid-level and junior engineers in DDD strategic patterns, clean architecture, and modern .NET best practices.
  • Partner with product, UX, and legal domain experts to translate complex workflows into intuitive, high-performance software.
  • Actively shape shared domain models and architecture decisions in cross-team design syncs, sprint planning, and design document reviews.
  • Clearly articulate technical trade-offs and domain models to engineers, product leaders, and stakeholders.
  • Actively contribute in design discussions, sprint planning, and cross-team syncs with empathy and respect.

Qualifications

  • 5+ years of backend development with expert-level C# and .NET 8+
  • Production-grade mastery of Domain-Driven Design (strategic + tactical patterns)
  • Deep, hands-on experience with MartenDB and Wolverine (.NET Critter Stack)
  • Strong grasp of CQRS, event sourcing, and PostgreSQL performance optimization
  • Experience in legal tech, workflow automation, or regulated industries
  • Familiarity with OpenTelemetry or other observability platforms
  • Familiarity with Svelte, TypeScript, and frontend development
  • Familiarity with Auth0 and OktaFGA
  • Exceptional communication—able to explain complex domain logic to non-technical stakeholders
  • Growth mindset, collaborative spirit, and passion for mentorship
  • Proven ability to independently drive high-impact initiatives to completion under ambitious timelines.
