Job description

Senior Platform Engineer is responsible for designing and maintaining reliable .NET 8 systems with a focus on secure authentication and authorization. The engineer will advise and develop platform-level features (e.g., Kafka, HTTP proxy services) while analyzing architectural trade-offs to ensure optimal designs. The role also requires hands-on experience with cloud technologies and key Kubernetes resources (manifests, operators, ingresses, pods, secrets, configmaps). It involves participating in the full software development lifecycle, collaborating with cross-functional teams in an agile environment.

Key Responsibilities:

• Design, build, and maintain scalable .NET 8 applications supporting authentication and authorization protocols (OAuth, SAML, OIDC) for secure management.
• Conceptualize how different components of a system fit together (front-end, back-end, databases, services). Weigh architectural options to arrive at optimal solutions.
• Work with Kubernetes manifests and operators for deploying and managing containerized workloads. Be proficient with core Kubernetes resources such as ingresses, pods, secrets, and configmaps. Collaborate with DevOps teams to ensure smooth container orchestration and cloud adoption.
• Develop secure APIs, proactively ensuring their security based on industry standards and vulnerability reports, and integrate them within the ecosystem.
• Create and modify CI/CD pipelines, including Azure Pipelines and GitOps processes, to support continuous integration and deployment.
• Collaborate with global cross-functional teams and vendors to understand business needs and translate them into technical solutions.
• Conduct code reviews and provide technical guidance to team members.
• Participate actively in agile ceremonies and contribute to process improvements and delivery outcomes.
• Write shell scripts as needed within reasonable scope.
