• Write clean, maintainable, and well-tested code with a strong focus on quality and reliability.
• Debug production issues, analyze root causes, and contribute to long-term fixes and improvements.
• Participate in code reviews, both receiving and providing thoughtful feedback.
• Work closely with product and QA to deliver features that meet real customer needs.
• Continuously learn new technologies and take on increasing technical responsibility over time.

About You

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
• Strong experience with C# / .NET Core or similar backend technologies.

• Familiarity with message queues or event-driven systems (e.g., RabbitMQ).
• Comfortable working in ambiguous problem spaces with guidance and support.
• Strong communicator who collaborates well within cross-functional teams.
• Takes pride in delivering quality work and improving systems over time.

Bonus Points For

• Hands-on experience with our stack: React, Vue.js, TypeScript, Node.js, .NET Core, MongoDB, Docker, AWS.
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines, GitHub Actions, or Team Foundation Server (TFS).
• Experience with performance optimization or distributed architecture design.
• Contributions to automation, developer tooling, or internal platform improvements.
