Job description

**This position is a direct hire for one of our clients. This is a fully remote position. Eligible candidates must currently reside in the US and authorized to work in the US without visa sponsorship.**
Our client is seeking a Senior Software Engineer to join their product engineering team and play a key role in modernizing their platform architecture. This position is ideal for a highly skilled engineer who combines strong hands-on development expertise with technical leadership, architectural thinking, and the ability to drive projects from concept through delivery.
This individual will help lead critical engineering initiatives, including the evolution of a monolithic application toward a service-oriented architecture, while partnering with internal teams and external development partners to deliver scalable, high-quality solutions.
Primary Duties
  • Manage technical projects from planning and design through implementation and delivery.
  • Serve as a senior technical contributor, balancing hands-on software development with technical leadership responsibilities.
  • Design scalable applications and make architecture decisions that support long-term growth and performance.
  • Help drive modernization efforts, including the transition from a monolithic system to service-oriented architectures and cloud-based solutions.
  • Collaborate with product, engineering, and external development teams to ensure successful delivery of strategic initiatives.
  • Evaluate and recommend AWS services and infrastructure patterns based on technical and business requirements.
  • Mentor team members and provide technical guidance when needed, helping strengthen overall engineering capabilities.
  • Communicate technical concepts, tradeoffs, and implementation plans clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
Qualifications
  • Strong experience developing applications with .NET and C#.
  • Experience working with SQL Server and relational database design.
  • Hands-on experience with AWS services and cloud infrastructure.
  • Experience developing modern web applications using React.
  • Strong understanding of software architecture, system design, and application scalability.
  • Ability to lead projects and influence technical direction without necessarily holding a formal leadership title.
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills.
Nice to Have Skills
  • Experience serving as a technical expert, project lead, or unofficial team leader.
  • Experience with cloud-native architectures, distributed systems, and service-oriented design patterns.
  • Experience partnering with offshore, nearshore, or external development teams.
  • Interest in future leadership opportunities and mentoring other engineers.
