A global business is hiring a Senior C# Developer to take hands-on technical ownership inside one of its core platform teams.

The platform is cloud-based, .NET throughout, and carries real weight: secure services for end users, internal case management, client reporting, and live integrations out to third-party financial systems. It is growing, and they want someone senior enough to shape how it grows rather than just add to it.

• Significant slices of the platform, yours from the first design conversation through to the release note and whatever comes back afterwards.
• The judgement call on technical debt in a mature C# codebase: what is genuinely holding the platform back, what is cosmetic, and what the team should spend its next quarter on.
• Larger refactoring and re-architecture work when the answer is that the current shape will not carry where the product is going.
• The data layer as the platform scales, including the integrations that reach outside it.
• Whether problems surface on your terms or the user's, through the monitoring, logging and alerting you put around what you build.
• How releases go out and what happens when one does not behave.
• The engineering standard around you, set through code review, mentoring and the example your own work sets.
• AI-assisted tooling used with your name still on the output, which they have been deliberate about wanting rather than quietly tolerating.

• Deep commercial C# on a .NET codebase you stayed with long enough to know its history. .NET 8 or later ideally, though what you did with it matters more than the version number.
• Ownership of live software: releases you planned, incidents you investigated, production problems you fixed at 6pm on a Friday.
• Performance work with evidence behind it, across both the C# and the data layer, using Entity Framework or EF Core against SQL Server and Azure SQL.
• API and service design that survived contact with real load, built in ASP.NET or ASP.NET Core.
• Mentoring and code review you have already done, with a view on what makes feedback land rather than just get given.
• Azure in anger:
  Functions, Web Jobs, Blob Storage, and Application Insights when something needs diagnosing.
• CI/CD and automated build and deployment as part of how you work, not something a platform team handles for you.
• Tests you wrote and then had to maintain, which is where most people find out what their testing habits are really worth.
• Secure development practice, in an environment where the data is sensitive and that is not a formality.

regulated environments, a major refactor or migration onto modern .NET, considered use of AI-assisted development tooling where you still own what ships.
