Role Overview

We are looking for an experienced .NET Solution Architect to lead the architecture, design, and delivery of scalable enterprise applications for medium-to-large business environments. The successful candidate will provide technical direction across the application lifecycle, define architecture standards, guide engineering teams, and ensure that solutions are secure, maintainable, resilient, and aligned with business objectives. The role requires deep expertise in C#, .NET Core/modern .NET, microservices, RESTful services, full-stack development, containerization, and enterprise integration, along with strong leadership and stakeholder-management skills.

Experience

- 10+ years of experience designing and developing enterprise software systems.
- At least 5+ years of experience providing solution architecture, application architecture, or senior technical leadership.
- Extensive hands-on experience with C# and .NET Core/modern .NET.
- Proven experience architecting solutions for medium-to-large business environments.
- Demonstrated experience leading full-stack engineering teams and delivering complex, business-critical applications.

Key Responsibilities
- Own the end-to-end architecture of enterprise applications built using the Microsoft technology stack.
- Translate business requirements and non-functional requirements into scalable technical solutions and architecture designs.
- Define solution blueprints, reference architectures, integration patterns, and technical roadmaps.
- Architect full-stack applications using C#, .NET Core/modern .NET, JavaScript, React, MS SQL Server, and Sybase.
- Lead the design of microservices, RESTful APIs, service-oriented solutions, and distributed systems.
- Make architecture decisions covering scalability, performance, availability, security, maintainability, observability, and operational readiness.
- Define appropriate service boundaries, communication patterns, data ownership, cohesion, coupling, and integration approaches.
- Establish and govern software design principles, coding standards, reusable components, and engineering best practices.
- Guide teams in applying SOLID principles, design patterns, multithreading, asynchronous processing, and clean-code practices.
- Review solution designs and code to identify architectural risks, technical debt, performance concerns, and security issues.
- Collaborate with developers, quality engineers, operations engineers, support teams, product owners, and business stakeholders.
- Provide technical direction throughout development, testing, continuous integration, deployment,



production support, and modernization.
- Define testing and quality strategies, including unit testing, test-driven development, automation, and architecture validation.
- Support CI/CD and release engineering practices using platforms such as TeamCity and Octopus Deploy.
- Guide the containerization and orchestration strategy using Docker, Rancher, and Kubernetes.
- Produce and maintain architecture diagrams, technical specifications, decision records, deployment views, integration designs, and other solution documentation.
- Lead technical discussions, design reviews, proofs of concept, and architecture governance forums.
- Mentor senior engineers and coach junior developers while promoting knowledge sharing and engineering excellence.
- Evaluate relevant technologies and recommend solutions based on business value, technical fit, sustainability, and delivery risk.
- Promote responsible use of AI-assisted engineering tools such as GitHub Copilot.

Required Technical Skills
- Expert-level knowledge of C#, .NET Core/modern .NET, and ASP.NET Core.
- Strong full-stack development experience using JavaScript and React.
- Strong experience with MS SQL Server and Sybase.

- Application performance and scalability
- Experience designing clean, modular, maintainable, reusable, and testable software.
- Strong understanding of API contracts, service versioning, backward compatibility, error handling, and integration reliability.
- Hands-on experience with unit testing frameworks such as xUnit, NUnit, or similar frameworks.
- Experience with TDD, continuous integration, continuous deployment, automation, refactoring, and version control.
- Hands-on experience with Docker, Rancher, and Kubernetes.
- Experience with CI/CD and release-management tools, including TeamCity and Octopus Deploy.




- Familiarity with Agile software engineering and delivery practices.
- Experience using AI-assisted development tools such as GitHub Copilot.

Architecture and Leadership Competencies
- Ability to assess business requirements and recommend practical architecture solutions.
- Strong architectural decision-making and problem-solving capabilities.
- Ability to balance long-term architecture objectives with immediate delivery needs.
- Ability to identify and communicate technical risks, constraints, assumptions, and trade-offs.
- Robust technical governance and engineering-quality mindset.
- Ability to influence stakeholders and build alignment across engineering, operations, quality, and business teams.
- Experience mentoring engineers and enabling teams to make sound technical decisions independently.
- Ability to communicate complex technical concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.
- Excellent written, verbal, presentation, and facilitation skills.

Documentation Requirements The candidate should be proficient in creating and maintaining:
- Solution architecture documents
- High-level and low-level design documents
- System context and component diagrams
- Application and service interaction diagrams
- Integration and data-flow diagrams
- Deployment and infrastructure views
- API and interface specifications
- Architecture decision records
- Technical standards and development guidelines
- Non-functional requirement and risk assessments

Preferred Qualifications
- Bachelors or master’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Engineering, or a related discipline.
