Senior Dot Net Developer - #1618

About the Role We're looking for a Senior .NET Developer to join the team building and maintaining our enterprise ITSM and platform automation ecosystem — a suite of ASP.NET Core APIs and services that integrate with directory services, service management tools, and internal data stores, backed by React-based front-end applications. You'll own backend services end-to-end, from design through deployment, and work closely with frontend and automation engineers to deliver reliable, secure, and well-tested systems. What You'll Do • Design, build, and maintain RESTful APIs and backend services using .NET 8 / ASP.NET Core • Work with PostgreSQL (via Npgsql/Entity Framework) to design schemas, write efficient queries, and manage data access layers • Implement and maintain authentication/authorization flows, including JWT bearer auth, Windows/Negotiate authentication, and LDAP/Active Directory integration • Integrate backend services with third-party and enterprise systems (e.g., ServiceNow-style ITSM platforms, directory services, internal data APIs) • Collaborate with frontend engineers to design clean API contracts consumed by React/TypeScript applications • Containerize services with Docker and support CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitLab CI) • Write unit and integration tests, participate in code reviews, and uphold code quality standards (e.g., SonarQube) • Troubleshoot and resolve production issues across the stack, with structured logging (log4net) and observability practices • Contribute to architecture decisions for new services and the evolution of existing ones What We're Looking For • 5+ years of professional experience building backend services in C# / .NET (ASP.NET Core preferred) • Strong understanding of REST API design, authentication/authorization patterns, and secure coding practices • Experience working with relational databases (PostgreSQL, SQL Server, or similar) and ORMs (Entity Framework or equivalent) • Familiarity with containerization (Docker) and CI/CD pipelines • Experience with version control (Git) and collaborative development workflows • Strong debugging, troubleshooting, and problem-solving skills • Clear written and verbal communication, with the ability to work cross-functionally with frontend, QA, and infrastructure teams Nice to Have (Advantages) • Full-stack development experience — comfort working across the stack with React/TypeScript front ends, from API design to UI integration • AI/ML knowledge — familiarity with applying AI/LLM tooling to developer workflows, automation, or product features (e.g., integrating LLM APIs, prompt engineering, or AI-assisted development practices) • Automation experience with Python and/or Ansible Automation Platform (AAP) — building or maintaining scripts, playbooks, or jobs for infrastructure automation, compliance checks, or operational tooling What Makes You Stand Out • Experience integrating enterprise systems with LDAP/Active Directory or similar identity providers • Exposure to hybrid environments where .NET services, Node/React front ends, and Python-based automation coexist and need to interoperate • A track record of improving reliability, security, or maintainability of backend systems in a production environment
