Responsibilities

• Design, implement, and maintain enterprise-grade applications for store operations, inventory management, associate tools, and omnichannel experiences
• Build high-performance backend services and APIs using modern .NET (C#) in a microservices architecture
• Create scalable UI components using React or Angular, integrated cleanly with .NET backend systems
• Implement cloud-native applications on Azure using services such as Azure Functions, Container Apps, Key Vault, App Configuration, and Azure SQL
• Partner with product managers, UX designers, and engineering peers to translate requirements into secure, resilient solutions
• Lead architectural design discussions, code reviews, technical planning, and engineering best practices
• Integrate systems with store hardware and IoT devices (e.g., scanners, printers, POS systems, smart shelves)
• Ensure performance, availability, and security for large-scale retail operations
• Improve engineering delivery across testing, CI/CD, observability, and operational readiness
• Mentor junior engineers and help grow engineering culture

Requirements (Minimum)

• Advanced experience with .NET (modern .NET/.NET Framework, ASP.NET, including multi-threading/performance tuning)
• Strong RESTful API and backend service experience (some SOAP)
• Strong SQL Server and/or Oracle experience (schema design, query optimization, stored procedures)
• Advanced Git and Git-based workflows (branching, PRs, code reviews)
• Strong understanding of cloud-native architectures, preferably on Azure (containers, secret/config management)
• Experience building/maintaining CI/CD pipelines (e.g., GitHub Actions)

• Strong logging/monitoring experience (e.g., New Relic or Application Insights)
• Knowledge of source control best practices, branching strategies, and code-quality standards
• Ability to refactor and modernize legacy .NET applications
• Moderate understanding of distributed system API integrations and troubleshooting
• Experience performing code reviews and mentoring

Preferred

• Strong Azure Container Apps (ACA), Azure Functions, App Configuration, Key Vault, and AKS
• Experience modernizing on-prem .NET to Azure cloud-native architectures
• Experience designing scalable enterprise architectures (event-driven, storage, caching, API integration)
• Experience writing automated unit tests for .NET
• Experience building Kotlin Android apps
• Moderate experience with Kafka / event-driven architecture
• Experience with MongoDB
