You’ll shape the future of a business‑critical platform as the technical lead across both product engineering and cloud infrastructure. You’ll modernize a mature .NET application running on AWS today, while steering its evolution toward a cloud‑native, React/Node.js, AI‑enabled architecture. If you enjoy owning architecture end‑to‑end, from backend and frontend through CI/CD, DevOps, and AWS infrastructure, this role gives you real influence at Staff Engineer level and the opportunity to set engineering standards that others follow. You’ll spend your time leading complex .NET and React features, designing scalable AWS infrastructure with Infrastructure as Code, and building automation that makes releases fast, safe, and repeatable. You’ll work on performance, reliability, and modernization in equal measure—fixing what’s slowing the platform down today and designing what it will look like in the next generation. Here’s a breakdown of what you’ll do (not all of it, just the important stuff) Lead the architecture and development of enterprise .NET services and APIs that power a business‑critical platform. Design and operate AWS infrastructure (using AWS CDK in TypeScript) to support secure, scalable, multi‑environment deployments. Build and optimize CI/CD pipelines (AWS CodePipeline, CodeBuild, Windows build agents) to make shipping .NET and React changes fast and reliable. Drive modernization initiatives across the stack, including clean architecture, refactoring legacy components, and reducing technical debt. Design and tune PostgreSQL and MSSQL database solutions for performance, scalability, and reliability. Mentor engineers and influence engineering practices across teams, raising the bar on cloud, DevOps, and software design. These are the essentials you’ll need to get an interview Significant experience (typically 8+ years) delivering and operating scalable enterprise software, owning both application code and cloud infrastructure.
