1. Role Context

- The requirement is for the Simulation & Modelling team, which supports process engineers.
- The team owns a simulation solution that:
- Receives real-time/time-series data from plants.
- Uses an industrial simulation/calculation engine.
- Compares calculated/simulated data against real-time plant data.

- Since process engineers rely on these calculations for plant-related decisions, the application is considered business-critical with very limited room for errors.
- The new hire is expected to be a senior and technically strong software engineer, capable of independently understanding complex systems, troubleshooting issues in depth and eventually taking a broader leadership role within the development team.
- The immediate requirement is for one FTE position.

2. Key Technical Requirements

The following skills were identified as critical:

- C# / .NET Core
- Strong hands-on experience with .NET Core and current .NET technologies.
- Strong backend development capability.

- Microsoft Azure High Priority

- Azure is one of the most important requirements along with .NET.
- Candidates should demonstrate actual hands-on experience with specific Azure services rather than merely mentioning “Azure” in the CV.
- Relevant Azure services include:
- Azure App Service
- Azure Key Vault
- Azure Functions
- Azure Cosmos DB
- Azure Kubernetes Service
- Azure Container Registry
- Azure App Registration

- Azure Application Ownership

- Developers are expected to manage applications across the complete lifecycle.
- Candidate should understand:
- Provisioning
- Configuration
- Application registration




- Deployment
- Ongoing application management

- CI/CD / DevOps

- Candidate should understand CI/CD pipelines beyond merely executing or monitoring existing pipelines.
- Should be capable of creating pipelines from scratch, particularly when owning a new application/component.

- Cosmos DB / NoSQL

- Hands-on experience is required.
- Candidate should understand:
- Query optimisation
- Database design/components
- Addition of current database components
- General NoSQL concepts

- Angular

- Angular exposure is required, but it is not the primary selection criterion.
- A strong backend engineer with workable Angular knowledge can be considered.

3. Skill Priority

The agreed priority is broadly:

1. Azure
2. C# / .NET Core
3. Backend development
4. CI/CD / DevOps
5. Cosmos DB / NoSQL
6. Angular

The role should therefore be treated primarily as a strong backend + Azure engineering position with full-stack exposure, rather than as a frontend-heavy role.

4. Experience Requirement - 7–10 years

5. Candidate Profile / Behavioural Expectations

Apart from technical skills, the candidate should demonstrate:

- Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving ability.
- Ability to quickly understand complex applications and go into technical depth.
- Strong coding/programming capability.
- Ability to gain the trust of the existing team.
- Stability and likelihood of remaining with the team for a reasonable period.
- Potential to eventually lead other developers.
- Ability to independently own components/applications rather than depend heavily on other teams.
