Тhe role:  

• Architect and deliver production-ready features across Vue.js and .NET 8+
• Debug and optimise SQL queries using execution plans and indexing strategies
• Identify and resolve performance bottlenecks across API, database, and browser layers
• Improve code quality through structured, high-impact code reviews
• Introduce measurable improvements to testing, CI/CD, and observability
• Contribute to architectural decisions with clear reasoning and trade-off analysis
• Define and drive AI-powered improvements across the SDLC, including automating workflows using modern tooling such as MCP (Model Context Protocol)

What you’ll do: 

• Own end-to-end technical delivery for features and architectural improvements
• Design, implement, and optimise backend services using C# and .NET 6–88–10
• Build maintainable, well-structured frontend components using Vue.js and TypeScript

• Can explain runtime complexity and performance trade-offs
• Is comfortable reasoning about SQL execution plans and index strategies
• Intentionally applies modern C# language features
• Thinks about performance across the full stack
• Raises the bar for engineering standards through influence and example
• Makes autonomous decisions and communicates trade-offs clearly

Skills & Experience must -haves:

• Significant professional software development experience
  
• Deep hands-on experience with C# and modern .NET
• Strong understanding of data structures and runtime behaviour
• Experience debugging and optimising SQL Server and PostgreSQL queries
• Strong frontend experience with Vue.js and TypeScript
• Experience owning production systems and resolving complex issues
• Experience building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines
• Confident use of AI tools (Copilot, ChatGPT, etc.)Confident use of AI tools (Copilot, ChatGPT, etc.) with the ability to define and maintain AI-driven workflow improvements
