About the Role
As a Backend Studio Lead (.NET), you will serve as the technical backbone and primary authority for our client's backend ecosystem.

  • Optimize complex database schemas, SQL Server query performance, indexing strategies, and data access layers.
  • Evaluate prospective engineering talent by conducting rigorous technical interviews and code assessments to maintain high engineering standards.
  • Design resilient distributed systems on Google Cloud Platform (GCP) leveraging modern containerization and CI/CD pipelines.
  • Collaborate directly with US-based client stakeholders to translate complex business requirements into robust, modern technical solutions.
Requirements
  • Years of Experience: 8+ years of professional backend software development experience, including 3+ years anchoring technical direction as a Lead Engineer, Staff Engineer, or Software Architect.
  • Tech Stack: Expert mastery of C#, .NET Core / .NET 6+, ASP.NET Web API, SQL Server, GCP, Docker, and Git.
  • Soft Skills: High ownership mindset, natural ability to mentor and influence without authority, and strong client-facing presence.
  • Language Proficiency: Advanced English (written and verbal) with exceptional communication skills for direct US stakeholder interaction.
Nice to Have
  • Proven experience modernizing legacy .NET Framework applications into modern cloud-native architectures.
  • Hands-on exposure to Kubernetes orchestration and messaging systems (e.g., RabbitMQ, Kafka) for event-driven architectures.
  • Familiarity with automated testing frameworks and quality engineering practices in high-growth environments.
  • Experience working within agile nearshore PODs or high-growth startup environments.
What You’ll Love
  • 100% Remote work environment.
  • Holidays off (US calendar).
  • Paid Time Off.
  • Health insurance assistance program.
  • Competitive USD compensation.
  • Growth opportunities with high autonomy, direct impact, and modern tech stacks.
