Job Summary :

We are looking for a hands-on .NET Tech Lead to join our growing engineering team. In this role, you won't just write great code - you'll own it. You'll lead a team of developers, shape technical direction, and actively contribute to development alongside your team to drive velocity and quality. The ideal candidate combines deep technical expertise in .NET Core, C#, Web API, and cloud platforms (Azure/AWS) with the leadership instincts to mentor developers, unblock delivery, and bridge the gap between business goals and engineering execution.

- Identify and proactively remove technical blockers that slow down delivery.

- Drive adoption of engineering best practices, coding standards, and patterns across the team.

Hands-On Development :

- Actively contribute to development - writing, reviewing, and shipping production code alongside your team.

- Design, develop, and maintain .NET Core applications, RESTful APIs, and Windows Services.

- Build and maintain PowerShell automation scripts for deployment and system operations.

- Migrate legacy ASP.NET applications to modern .NET versions, improving performance and security.

- Integrate cloud-based solutions (Azure/AWS) and contribute to DevOps initiatives.

Team & Delivery :

- Mentor and coach developers, fostering a culture of ownership, continuous improvement, and collaboration.

- Collaborate with Product, QA, and cross-functional stakeholders to define, estimate, and deliver features.

- Participate in sprint planning and backlog grooming - translating requirements into well-scoped technical tasks.

- Partner with leadership to improve team velocity, engineering processes, and delivery predictability.

Required Qualifications & Skills :

- Strong proficiency in .NET Core, C#, and Web API

- Hands-on experience with Windows Services and PowerShell scripting (required)

- Proficient in ASP.NET development - Windows applications, web applications, and WCF services

- Proven experience leading or mentoring development teams in a tech lead or senior technical capacity

- Solid understanding of RESTful APIs, Microservices Architecture, and SOA

- Experience migrating legacy .NET applications to modern .NET versions

- Experience with relational and NoSQL databases (SQL Server, PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, DynamoDB)

- Working knowledge of Azure or AWS, and DevOps practices

- Excellent debugging, problem-solving, and system optimization skills

- Strong communication skills able to translate between technical and non-technical stakeholders

- Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines, Docker, and Kubernetes is a plus

- Nice to have : Experience with Angular or React

Required Qualifications :

- 8+ years of hands-on experience in .NET development
