About this role
We're reimagining a mission-critical communication platform that powers how systems exchange data, files, and events with the outside world.
This is not a greenfield toy project-it's a high-impact transformation at scale.
As a Senior Azure .NET Architect, you'll help design and shape a next-generation, cloud-native integration platform.
You'll take an existing, complex ecosystem and turn it into a resilient, high-performance, event-driven architecture running on Azure.
If you enjoy solving hard distributed systems problems and building platforms that truly matter-this role is for you. 💡 What you'll be doing You won't just "contribute"-you'll shape the future architecture: Design and build a modern communication layer handling message and file ingestion, transformation, routing, and delivery (sync + async) Create resilient, fault-tolerant systems using proven patterns like retries, circuit breakers, idempotency, and event-driven workflows Architect scalable event-driven solutions using Azure messaging services and/or Kafka-style pub/sub systems Build high-quality .NET services (.NET 7/8, C#, ASP.NET Core, gRPC/REST) with a strong engineering culture (TDD, clean code, performance-first) Deploy and operate workloads on Kubernetes (AKS/OpenShift) using Helm and modern CI/CD pipelines Define observability from day one: logging, tracing, metrics, SLOs, and actionable runbooks Collaborate in a truly agile setup, working closely with engineers, product owners, and other teams Mentor and elevate others-your experience will help raise the bar across the team 🎯 Why this role stands out High impact: You're building a core platform that everything depends on Real engineering challenges: Distributed systems, scalability, resilience-no trivial work here Modern tech stack: Cloud-native, Kubernetes, event-driven, .NET latest Ownership & influence: Your architectural decisions will shape the platform long-term Collaborative culture: Work with experienced engineers who care about doing things right Extensive experience in software engineering (15+ years), including building distributed, high-throughput, or mission-critical systems Strong hands-on Azure expertise (AKS, Functions, messaging services, Storage, monitoring, CI/CD) Deep knowledge of .NET (C#, modern .NET, async programming, testing practices) Solid understanding of event-driven architecture and distributed system trade-offs Experience with Docker and Kubernetes in production environments A mindset focused on quality, automation, and continuous improvement Confidence to make architectural decisions and guide others Strong communication skills in English 🌟 bonus points: Experience with observability stacks (Opentelemetry, tracing, logging platforms) Exposure to large-scale messaging or file transfer systems Knowledge of secure integration protocols (e.g., sFTP, AS2/AS4, messaging queues) Experience working in regulated or high-reliability environments
