• Mentor junior engineers and contribute to growing a culture of technical excellence

Our Core Tech Stack:

• Backend: C# / .NET Core

• Database: MSSQL, Postgres, Elasticsearch, MongoDB
• Cloud: Azure or Google
• Dev Tools: Git, CI/CD pipelines, Docker

Minimum Requirements:

• 6+ years of professional software engineering experience
• Expertise with C# and .NET Core, including building APIs and backend systems
• Proficiency in React and/or Next.js for modern frontend development
• Experience working with cloud services (Azure, AWS, or GCP)
• Strong communication and client management skills—comfortable owning technical delivery in client settings
• A passion for learning and working with emerging technologies
• Ability to work independently in fast-paced, dynamic environments

Bonus Points For:

• Prior consulting, agency, or client-facing experience
• Experience designing cloud-native architectures and using infrastructure-as-code tools
• Open-source contributions or published technical content
• Familiarity with data science workflows or machine learning integration

What We Value:

• Curiosity and action: You take initiative and explore new ideas
• Empathy and clarity: You’re a strong communicator and collaborator
• Delivery and impact: You’re focused on outcomes, not just outputs
• Passion and adaptability: You bring energy, depth, and flexibility to your work
