.NET Solution Architect

About the role

You will make the decisions that are expensive to reverse: service boundaries, data model, tenancy, how the thing degrades when a dependency is down. We build on .NET and Azure for clients who need the system to still make sense in year three, so the reasoning behind a decision matters as much as the decision.

What you’ll do

• Own the architecture of .NET platforms on Azure, from discovery through to production
• Write the decision records — what was chosen, what was rejected, and what would change the answer
• Design for multi-tenancy, auditability and data residency where the client’s regulator requires it
• Set the standard for testing, observability and release safety, then hold the team to it
• Work directly with client architects and CTOs as the technical counterpart in the room
• Mentor engineers: the goal is a team that no longer needs you on every call

What we’re looking for

• Eight or more years in .NET, several of them designing systems rather than only building them
• Deep Azure — App Service, AKS, Functions, Azure SQL, Service Bus and the cost model behind them
• Fluent in distributed-systems failure: retries, idempotency, eventual consistency and their costs
• Able to say no to an architecture that is more interesting than the problem requires

Nice to have

Not required. Apply if the section above fits.

• Regulated-domain experience — lending, payments or healthcare
• Event-driven or CQRS systems in production
• Azure certification
