What you will do
- Design, implement, and maintain backend Web APIs and services using .NET Core / .NET 6+;
- Model and enforce data access patterns; write efficient T‑SQL and leverage Dapper for data access (no heavy ORMs/EF);
- Apply caching (Azure Cache for Redis), partitioning/sharding, and idempotent/event-driven processing (Azure Service Bus/Event Hubs);
- Profile and optimize hot paths (dotnet-counters/trace, PerfView, BenchmarkDotNet);
- Deliver observable services (OpenTelemetry traces/metrics/logs, Azure Application Insights) with actionable SLO/SLA signals;
- Collaborate on architecture, trade-offs, and failure modes; participate in code reviews and mentor peers (incl. AI-assisted workflows);
- Uphold security best practices (OWASP API, Azure Key Vault, least privilege, rate limiting).
Must haves
- 5+ years of experience with .NET Core backend engineering focused on API development;
- Hands‑on experience with Microsoft Azure services (Azure SQL, Blob Storage, Cosmos DB, Redis, etc.);
- Strong understanding of relational databases and T‑SQL fundamentals; experience with Dapper or equivalent micro‑ORMs;
- Proven experience building/operating systems with high throughput, distributed components, and internet‑scale considerations;
- Proficiency with AI‑assisted development (e.g., Copilot/ChatGPT);
- Practical observability (logs/metrics/traces) and performance optimization;
- Clear and concise communication; comfortable in highly transparent cultures;
- Upper-Intermediate English level.
Nice to haves
- Familiarity with Azure SQL Hyperscale, Cosmos DB modeling, and Redis patterns;
- Understanding of event‑driven design and idempotent processing;
- Exposure to observability stacks (metrics/tracing/logging);
- Basic container literacy (Docker/Kubernetes familiarity), though infra is handled by a dedicated team;
- Experience mentoring engineers or coordinating contributions across a small pod.
