- Design, develop, and maintain Azure-based SaaS applications and serverless Function Apps supporting production workloads.
- Build and evolve distributed, event-driven backend architectures using Azure services such as Service Bus, Event Grid, App Services, and Storage.
- Develop secure, high-performance REST APIs and integrate them with internal systems and third-party services.
- Rapidly prototype and validate new ideas, contributing to research and experimentation within an R&D-focused engineering environment.
- Ensure system reliability, scalability, performance, and responsiveness across development, testing, and production environments.
- Troubleshoot complex technical issues and support continuous improvement of system stability and code quality.
- Collaborate with cross-functional engineering and product teams to design and deliver new features.
- Stay current with emerging cloud, backend, and AI technologies and apply relevant innovations to ongoing projects.
- Contribute to CI/CD practices and automation workflows using tools such as Azure DevOps or GitHub Actions.
Requirements
- 5+ years of professional software engineering experience building and deploying production-grade applications.
- Strong hands-on experience with Microsoft Azure cloud services, including Azure Functions, App Services, Service Bus, Event Grid, and Storage.
- Proficiency in C# and .NET for backend development and system design.
- Experience designing and implementing distributed, event-driven, or microservices-based architectures.
- Strong understanding of secure API design and integration with external systems and services.
- Experience working with databases such as Cosmos DB, Gremlin, and T-SQL.
- Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines using Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, or similar tools.
- Ability to work independently in a fast-paced, research-driven environment with evolving requirements.
- Strong problem-solving skills, technical curiosity, and ability to rapidly prototype solutions.
- Experience in SaaS platforms, regulated environments, or security-focused domains is a plus.
- Exposure to Azure AI services or OpenAI integrations is considered an advantage.
Benefits
- Remote-first role with flexibility to work from anywhere in the United States
- Competitive compensation aligned with experience and technical expertise
- Opportunity to work on cutting-edge cloud and cybersecurity innovation projects
- Access to modern Azure-based architecture and advanced engineering toolsets
- Collaborative, research-driven environment with strong focus on experimentation and learning
