[Hiring] Senior Software Engineer @HugeInc

Role Description

We are seeking a talented Software Engineer with a passion for development of scalable distributed platforms to join our team. The ideal candidate will have a proven track record of developing robust software applications and an understanding of microservices, event integration patterns and data orchestration across hybrid cloud and on-premise environments. This role offers the opportunity to work on diverse projects with global clients. You will be joining a team of skilled professionals driving innovative and impactful solutions.

• Drive the engineering of robust, high-throughput services using .NET 8+, C#, and ASP.NET Core Minimal APIs across a distributed microservices architecture optimized for mobile client consumption.
• Design and implement scalable, asynchronous pipelines using message-bus patterns and distributed pub/sub frameworks to orchestrate real-time data flow between decoupled services.
• Architect and own secure integration endpoints, including webhooks, event ingestion pipelines, and third-party data feeds.
• Optimize data strategies that utilize modern cloud storage with on-premise databases, responsible for data modeling, query optimization, and synchronization patterns using NoSQL and SQL platforms and validation/integrity across a hybrid platform.
• Build and deploy within containerized environments (ex. Azure Container Apps, Kubernetes), assuming Infrastructure as Code as a core tenant of the development process and leveraging Application Performance Monitoring (APM) to ensure healthy services & performant systems.
• Proactively identify architectural roadblocks and gaps in capability within the hybrid ecosystem, providing alternate technical approaches such as caching strategies or API gateway optimizations to keep the project on schedule.
• Partner with Strategy, Creative, and Client leads to translate complex business requirements into elegant, executable technical solutions fit for mobile app consumption.
• Serve as a lead mentor for the engineering team, fostering a culture of high-performance coding and adherence to backend and platform best practices.
• Stay at the forefront of the .NET & Cloud-Native ecosystem, advocating for tools and frameworks that specifically enhance system quality, scale, and development productivity.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent professional experience.
• 6+ years of hands-on experience with C#, .NET (Core/.NET 8+), and ASP.NET Core building backend and scalable distributed systems that support high-concurrency application ecosystems.
• Proven experience designing decoupled systems using event-driven communication patterns, managing event flow, state, and consistency in a complex distributed environment.
• Proven experience building production webhook systems—including signature verification, idempotency, retry logic, ensuring third-party data flows are fault-tolerant.
• Proven experience with Entity Framework Core, Dapper, Azure SQL Server, and Azure Cosmos DB.
• Hands-on experience with container-first architecture (ex. Event Hubs, Key Vault, Blob Storage, and Managed Identity) and the ability to manage the deployment lifecycle of IaC.
• Familiar with APM platforms (Dynatrace, New Relic, Datadog) to diagnose bottlenecks, structured logging via Serilog, and health check endpoints for service readiness.
• Experience in defensive coding patterns and leveraging libraries like Polly designing systems for graceful degradation and automagic recovery.
• Skilled in xUnit testing (ex. Moq or NSubstitute, and FluentAssertions). Experience with integration testing via WebApplicationFactory and security scanning tools (ex. StackHawk, CodeQL) is a plus.
• A strong appreciation for clean API design, with experience with OpenAPI and code generation tools (TypeSpec or similar) for consistent contracts across services.
• The ability to explain complex technical trade-offs to non-technical stakeholders with clarity ensuring that technical constraints never get in the way of an awesome user experience.
