About The Position

We are seeking a Senior Software Engineer with a focus on AI to join our team. This role involves leading the implementation of large features and multi-sprint projects, driving backend execution and delivery using C# and the .NET platform. You will design, build, and maintain performant, secure, and well-documented RESTful and/or GraphQL APIs. The position requires decomposing complex problems into milestones, translating acceptance criteria into robust, testable backend solutions, and mentoring other engineers through code reviews, pairing, and technical guidance. You will also influence engineering practices to raise overall quality, contribute to proofs-of-concept, and collaborate effectively with stakeholders. Other duties as assigned.

Requirements

Bachelor’s degree or equivalent practical experience.
6+ years of professional software engineering experience.
Deep proficiency in C# and the .NET ecosystem (.NET 6+, ASP.NET Core).
Proven experience designing and building RESTful APIs, including versioning, authentication, and documentation (e.g., Swagger/OpenAPI).
Strong fundamentals in software design, debugging, and maintainable coding practices.
Expertise working with relational data stores (e.g., SQL Server, PostgreSQL) and ORM frameworks (e.g., Entity Framework Core).
Experience with cloud platforms, e.g. Azure or AWS, including deploying and operating .NET services.
Demonstrated ability to lead technical delivery, mentor others, and handle ambiguity effectively.
Track record of raising engineering quality (reliability, performance, testing, maintainability).
Experience participating in estimation and sprint planning.
Proficiency with version control systems (Git) and defect-tracking tools (e.g., Jira).
Strong written and verbal communication skills.
Detail-oriented, with strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
Demonstrated growth mindset — self-driven learning and continuous improvement.
