Software Engineer

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in United Kingdom.

📋 Description

• Create new functionalities and resolve issues within the core .NET application and its integration microservices.

• Design and manage event-driven integrations utilizing Kafka (including producers, consumers, and CDC pipelines) between internal systems and external partners.

• Develop and optimize SQL Server / T-SQL components — such as stored procedures, queries, and schema modifications — supporting both the platform and integration services.

• Containerize, deploy, and manage services using Docker and Kubernetes, utilizing GitHub Actions for CI/CD pipelines.

• Engage with cloud infrastructure (Azure) for hosting, messaging, secrets management, and observability.

• Contribute to code reviews, design discussions, sprint ceremonies, and participate in on-call/triage activities as part of an Agile/Scrum team.

• Troubleshoot production issues from start to finish — analyzing .NET service logs and Kafka topics down to the SQL Server database.

• Collaborate effectively with product, QA, DevOps, and partner teams; communicate trade-offs, risks, and status clearly in both written and verbal formats during meetings.

⛳️ Requirements

• 2–5 years of experience in professional software engineering.

• Strong practical knowledge of C# and .NET (including both .NET Framework and .NET Core / .NET 6+).

• Proficient in SQL Server / T-SQL with a solid understanding of joins, indexing fundamentals, stored procedures, and query troubleshooting.

• Experience with Kafka or a similar message broker/event streaming platform.

• Practical knowledge of microservices architecture, REST APIs, and asynchronous/event-driven patterns.

• Familiarity with Postman and related API tools (e.g., Insomnia, Swagger/OpenAPI, curl) for designing, testing, debugging, and documenting REST APIs.

• Comfortable using Docker and have some exposure to Kubernetes.

• Experience with Git / GitHub and CI/CD pipelines (preferably GitHub Actions or similar).

• Practical experience with at least one public cloud platform (Azure preferred; AWS/GCP acceptable).

• Experience in a fast-paced delivery environment.

• Strong written and verbal communication skills, capable of articulating technical decisions to both technical and non-technical audiences, and producing clear PRs, design documents, and incident reports.

• Demonstrated daily proficiency with modern AI development tools (e.g., Cursor, GitHub, or similar) effectively used for coding, code review, debugging, refactoring, writing tests, and familiarizing with new code.
