Duration: 6-12 Months

Overview:

We are seeking a Principal .NET Engineer to lead our backend EAPI team, which is currently focused on an on-prem solution. This role offers the opportunity to take ownership of a critical backend system while also leading the transition to a modern cloud-based architecture. The ideal candidate will have deep expertise in .NET (C#) development, strong leadership skills, and experience working with Elasticsearch. Bonus points for cloud experience, particularly AWS.

As a Principal .NET Engineer, you will be the technical leader for a team of three engineers and will play a key role in the eventual migration from the existing .NET codebase to a cloud-based solution (AWS). You will collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to design, build, and guide the transition of services to the cloud or manage a seamless handoff to other domain-based teams.

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead the backend EAPI team and take full ownership of the existing .NET codebase.
• Provide technical leadership, mentorship, and guidance to a team of three engineers.
• Manage and drive the migration of the existing .NET-based on-prem solution to a modern cloud-based system in AWS (if deemed worthwhile).
• Work closely with cross-functional teams to assess and determine the feasibility of transitioning the system to AWS.
• Design, architect, and implement new solutions in AWS or manage the handoff of system components to other domain-based teams as part of a gradual transition.
• Ensure high-quality, scalable, and reliable backend services and APIs.
• Be hands-on with code development, problem-solving, and troubleshooting while driving team-wide best practices.
• Collaborate with stakeholders and provide updates on the progress of ongoing initiatives.
• Required Qualifications:
• Proven experience with .NET (C#) development and backend technologies.
• Strong leadership skills with a track record of leading and mentoring teams.
• Experience with Elasticsearch (bonus points for working knowledge).
• Familiarity with modern cloud technologies, particularly AWS, and experience with system migrations or cloud adoption (ideal but not required).
• Strong architectural and system design skills, with a focus on scalable, high-performance applications.
• Ability to work in a fast-paced, collaborative environment and navigate ambiguity.
• Preferred Qualifications:
• Experience designing and deploying cloud-native applications in AWS.
• Familiarity with DevOps practices and CI/CD pipelines.
• Experience with microservices architecture and service-oriented systems.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to work with cross-functional teams.
