The role 

As a .NET Software Architect, you are passionate about experience innovation and eager to push the boundaries of what’s possible. You bring 10+ YEARS of experience, a growth mindset and a drive to make a lasting impact.

You will thrive in this role if you are:

• A curious problem solver who challenges the status quo
• A collaborator who values teamwork and knowledge-sharing
• Excited by the intersection of technology, creativity and data
• Experienced in Agile methodologies and consulting (a plus)

Role responsibilities

• • System Architecture: Design and maintain clean, decoupled ecosystem blueprints using Clean Architecture and Command Query Responsibility Segregation (CQRS) patterns to separate core domain business rules from external infrastructure. 
  • Event Streaming & Processing: Architect high-throughput, fault-tolerant event streams using Apache Kafka. Design partition strategies, consumer groups, schemas, and end-to-end messaging reliability configurations (e.g., handling backpressure, atomicity, and idempotent messaging).
  • Ultra-Low Latency API Engineering: Develop ultra-responsive ASP.NET Core Minimal APIs optimized for sub-second, real-time responses. Implement advanced caching topologies (output and distributed memory caches), optimized connection pooling, and resilient pipeline middleware. 
  • Frontend Architecture: Steer the strategy for modular web applications using Blazor. Define the best use of rendering modes (WASM, Server, and interactive interoperability) to deliver seamless, real-time user experiences. 
  • Cloud & Orchestration: Leverage .NET Aspire for distributed application orchestration, containerization (Docker), and multi-service lifecycle management. 

  Technical Skills & Qualifications

  Core .NET Mastery

  • Expertise in C# & .NET 10: Deep understanding of the latest language specifications, compilation optimizations, and Central Package Management.
  • Clean Architecture Practices: Proven experience building rigid dependency hierarchies (Domain → Application → Infrastructure → Web/API). [1]

  Distributed Systems & Event Streaming

  • Apache Kafka Ecosystem: Extensive hands-on experience building producers, consumers, and stream-processing infrastructure. Proficiency with Kafka Streams API, Confluent Schema Registry, or Avro contracts is a plus.
  • Asynchronous Integration: Mastery over event-driven microservices, sagas, message routing, error queues, and eventually consistent database models. 

  API Design & Optimization

  • Sub-second REST/gRPC Engineering: Proven track record of configuring high-performance networking pipelines, async I/O handling, and low-latency payload serialization.
  • Data Lifecycle Management: Proficiency with Entity Framework Core, complex query tuning, B-tree indexes, execution plans, and read/write optimization. 

  Modern UI Frameworks

  • Advanced Blazor Components: Full understanding of the Blazor component lifecycle, global state management, JavaScript Interop, and client-server security trade-offs.

  Preferred Experience

  • 10+ years of professional software engineering experience, with 3+ years serving as a Software Architect or Technical Lead.
  • Extensive experience deploying containerized microservices to cloud environments (AWS or Azure) via automated CI/CD pipelines.
  • Familiarity with distributed resiliency patterns, circuit breakers, and rate-limiting utilizing frameworks like Polly.
