We are seeking an experienced Tech Lead to spearhead the modernisation of a large-scale enterprise application from legacy ASP.NET to a up-to-date .NET 10 Web API and React stack. You will own the technical direction of a cross-functional delivery pod, mentor a team of developers, and drive hands-on engineering across both frontend and backend.
This is a hands-on leadership role — you will write production code, lead architecture decisions, and be accountable for the technical quality of everything your pod delivers. You will work in a structured Agile environment, collaborating closely with the Solution Architect, QA leads, and client stakeholders across a multi-year, multi-phase modernisation programme.
What You Will Do
Technical Leadership
• Own end-to-end technical delivery of your pod — architecture, design, coding, code review, and quality gates
• Lead the migration from legacy ASP.NET (MVC / Web API / Web Forms) to .NET 10 REST APIs and React 18 frontend
• Define and enforce coding standards, branching strategy, and PR review process across the pod
• Produce Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) for all significant technical choices
• Conduct structured code reviews covering architecture, security, performance, and maintainability — not just syntax
• Identify and resolve technical debt proactively; maintain a tech debt register visible to stakeholders
• Set up and maintain CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions / Azure DevOps) with quality gates: SonarQube, unit coverage, OWASP dependency scan
• Collaborate with Solution Architect on cross-pod API contracts, shared services, and infrastructure decisions
Hands-On Engineering
• Design and build .NET 10 Web API microservices using Clean Architecture and Domain-Driven Design patterns
• Build React 18 SPAs: component architecture, Redux Toolkit / Zustand state management, routing, and performance optimisation
• Implement OAuth2 / OIDC / JWT authentication and role-based access control
• Design and optimise relational database schemas (SQL Server / PostgreSQL); write complex LINQ and EF Core queries
• Build and consume RESTful APIs with versioning, error handling, and OpenAPI documentation
• Write unit, integration, and contract tests as a core part of the Definition of Done
Migration & Modernisation
• Lead the technical approach for migrating legacy ASP.NET code to .NET 10 — analysis, characterisation testing, phased migration, parity validation
• Use GitHub Copilot and AI-assisted tooling to accelerate migration while maintaining review discipline
• Identify breaking changes, deprecated dependencies, and third-party package migration paths
• Establish repeatable migration patterns that the whole pod can follow consistently across modules
• Ensure all migrated code has adequate unit test coverage before merge — parity tests are non-negotiable
Team Leadership & Mentoring
• Lead a pod of 4–6 engineers (mix of senior, mid, and junior developers)
• Run daily technical standups, remove technical blockers, and escalate risks to the Architect early
• Mentor mid and junior developers through pair programming, code reviews, and 1:1 technical guidance
• Create a learning environment — internal tech talks, documentation, actionable review feedback
• Make resourcing recommendations and flag capacity risks to the Delivery Manager
Agile Delivery (Added Advantage)
• Participate in Scrum ceremonies — Sprint Planning, Daily Standup, Sprint Review, Retrospective, Backlog Grooming
• Collaborate with the Product Owner / BA to refine user stories, provide technical input on acceptance criteria, and raise technical stories
• Provide accurate SP estimates; track sprint progress and flag scope risk early
• Support the Scrum Master in removing impediments with a technical root cause
• Champion the Definition of Done — ensure every story that ships meets quality, test, and documentation standards
