Position Overview

• We are hiring a Senior Backend .NET Developer to own the backend of a commercial real estate software platform. The platform helps companies manage property leases, documents, key dates, tasks and lease accounting compliance.

Responsibilities

• Design, build and maintain backend services in C#/.NET and ASP.NET Core.

• Build and maintain the GraphQL API layer consumed by the frontend.

• Integrate with Azure services for storage, identity/authentication, functions and search.

• Implement authentication, authorisation and security best practices across the API, including OAuth2, JWT and role-based access control.

• Own features end to end, from scoping with the architect through implementation, unit testing, code review and deployment via Azure DevOps CI/CD.

• Keep the codebase clean and well-structured, following the team’s architecture patterns, including Clean Architecture, DDD and CQRS.

• Add logging and monitoring to help diagnose production issues.

• Support feature delivery by working on React/TypeScript frontend tasks

Requirements

• 5+ years of hands-on backend development experience in C#/.NET and ASP.NET Core.

• Hands-on experience building GraphQL APIs. The platform uses Hot Chocolate, but experience with any GraphQL framework is acceptable.
