Description du poste

Описание

Social Discovery Group (SDG) is a group of social discovery companies. SDG solves the problems of loneliness, isolation, and disconnection - transforming virtual intimacy into the new normal. SDG’s products redefine the way people interact and connect with one another. Our portfolio includes social entertainment platforms designed to connect people online across different cultures and regions of the world. We bring together a team of like-minded people and IT professionals who specialize in creating and developing globally impactful social discovery products.

Задачи

Own delivery of the monolith-to-microservices modernization end-to-end — from legacy analysis through production release — with full visibility into pipeline status and risk. Partner with Product and Architecture to review specs, map legacy dependencies, and turn that into estimates the team can actually hit. Guide architectural decisions across .NET Core services, databases (SQL/NoSQL), and frontend integrations, and be the go-to for the hardest backend, data migration, and production incident calls. Sharpen how the team works day-to-day — tighter task tracking in Jira, more accurate estimation, and a QA partnership that keeps bugs resolved fast and production stable. Run regular 1-on-1s tied to real career goals, and drive the feedback and process changes that keep the team improving and engaged.

Требования

Solid .NET engineering background with deep expertise in C#, .NET 8, and ASP.NET Core. Deep understanding of web application architecture, REST APIs, the microservices pattern, message brokers (RabbitMQ), and database design (PostgreSQL, MS SQL Server, Redis). Practical experience with legacy system modernization, monorepo-to-microservices refactoring, and containerization (Docker, Kubernetes). Ability to act as the technical escalation point for complex implementation, data migration, or performance issues. Proven experience managing engineering teams — running 1-on-1s, performance reviews, and objective evaluations. Strong track record in delivery management: task tracking in Jira, process discipline, and hitting internal deadlines with predictable releases. Experience reviewing business specs, assessing technical feasibility, and providing high-level estimates — partnering closely with PM and product to keep engineering output aligned with product goals.
