Software Engineer Team Lead

Responsibilities

• Lead the design and implementation of full stack applications using .NET (C#) and Blazor, ensuring solutions are scalable, maintainable, and aligned with business objectives.
• Define and evolve the technical architecture across frontend and backend systems, making pragmatic trade-offs between speed, quality, and complexity.
• Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines using Git Hub Actions, enabling teams to deploy frequently and safely with automated build, test, and release workflows.
• Champion automated testing at all levels — unit, integration, and end‑to‑end — embedding quality into the development process rather than treating it as a gate.
• Design and manage cloud infrastructure on Microsoft Azure using Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tooling such as Bicep, Terraform, or ARM templates, ensuring environments are reproducible, version‑controlled, and secure.
• Implement and manage feature flagging strategies using Launch Darkly to support progressive rollouts, experimentation, and safe deployments.
• Conduct code reviews, provide technical guidance, and mentor engineers across the team to raise the bar on engineering standards and practices.
• Collaborate with product managers, designers, and stakeholders to translate requirements into well‑scoped technical plans and delivery milestones.
• Evaluate and introduce new tools, frameworks, and patterns where they provide meaningful improvement, while managing technical debt pragmatically.
• Contribute to incident response, production support, and post‑incident reviews, fostering a culture of reliability and continuous improvement.

• 7+ years of professional software development experience, with at least 2 years in a technical lead or senior architecture role.
• Strong proficiency in .NET (C#), including ASP.NET Core, Web APIs, and server‑side application development.
• Hands‑on experience building interactive web applications with Blazor (Server and/or Web Assembly).
• Deep working knowledge of Microsoft Azure services (App Services, Azure SQL, Azure Functions, Service Bus, Entra , Key Vault, and related).
• Proven experience designing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines in Git Hub Actions, including branch strategies, environment promotion, and automated quality gates.
• Practical experience with Infrastructure as Code using Bicep, Terraform, or ARM templates in Azure environments.
• Experience implementing feature management and progressive delivery using Launch Darkly or comparable feature flagging platforms.
• Strong commitment to automated testing practices and experience with testing frameworks such as xUnit, NUnit, bUnit, Playwright, or similar.
• Solid understanding of relational databases (SQL Server, Azure SQL) and data access patterns (Entity Framework Core, Dapper).

• Experience with containerization (Docker) and orchestration platforms (Azure Kubernetes Service, Azure Container Apps).
• Familiarity with observability and monitoring tools such as Application Insights, Azure Monitor, Grafana, or Datadog.
• Experience with event‑driven architectures, messaging systems, or microservices patterns.
• Azure certifications (e.g., Azure Developer Associate, Azure Solutions Architect Expert).
• Experience working in Agile or Scrum environments with cross‑functional teams.
• Track record of contributing to developer experience improvements — internal tooling, templates, documentation, or developer onboarding.

• A pragmatic engineering mindset — you optimize for outcomes, not perfection.
• Clear, direct communication with both technical and non‑technical audiences.
• A bias toward shipping, paired with the discipline to build things right.
• Genuine interest in growing other engineers and building a strong team culture.
• Comfort operating with ambiguity and making decisions with incomplete information.
