You'll work across the stack - from designing backend services to implementing front-end features while collaborating closely with cross-functional teams. This role is hands-on: you'll translate requirements into well-designed solutions, write production-ready code, participate in code reviews, and contribute to the overall reliability and performance of our systems. You'll also help support our applications in production through on-call rotations and proactive issue resolution. This position is ideal for an engineer who enjoys solving real-world problems, working in modern cloud environments, and contributing to systems end-to-end. You'll have the opportunity to deepen your technical expertise, influence design decisions, and grow within a supportive engineering culture. At Very the key distinction between mid, senior and lead roles is the scope and depth of your expertise and responsibility. As a mid you can own and deliver tasks (work packages) with a high level of professionalism and know when to reach out for help. As a senior, you have deep expertise in your area of specialization and can execute independently in your domain while interfacing with other software stacks. As a lead you become a true full stack engineer with the ability to plan, execute and lead a team across the full software stack, while interfacing with non-software aspects of the project. This is not an easy role. You'll work in complex domains, under real deadlines, and with clients who expect you to bring clarity, confidence, and results. If you find satisfaction in doing hard things well - in solving tough problems, building real systems, and helping others rise to the challenge - you'll fit right in. As a client services organization, travel may be required up to 10% of the time. What You'll Be Working On Every engagement at Very is different, but they share one common theme: we build things that matter. From connected hardware and data systems to large-scale web and AI-driven platforms, you'll: * Capture technical requirements and contribute to high-level and low-level design for software solutions using AWS and Azure technologies. * Build production-grade backend services and APIs using C# and ASP.NET Core. * Build and support complex, microservice-based, event-driven systems. * Implement testing strategies and automation across the stack. * Participate in on-call rotation and help maintain system health, performance, and reliability. * Collaborate across engineering, design, and product to deliver high-quality outcomes. * Identify and proactively address potential technical or operational risks before they impact customers. You'll operate in a modern, polyglot environment that includes: * Backend: C#, .NET, ASP.NET Core, distributed APIs and worker services * Cloud: Azure Functions, Azure Service Bus, Azure Blob Storage, Azure Cosmos DB * IoT & Real-Time Systems: Azure IoT Hub, SignalR, telemetry ingestion pipelines * Authentication & Security: Microsoft Entra ID / Azure AD B2C * DevOps: Docker, GitHub Actions, CI/CD pipelines, Infrastructure-as-Code * Databases: Azure Cosmos DB, SQL-based operational systemsPostgres, Redis, TimescaleDB, DynamoDB * Testing: Jest, Cypress, Pytest, and other automated test frameworks * Observability: Logging, monitoring, telemetry, and production diagnostics Outcomes * Deliver High-Quality Features: Ship secure, reliable code that meets requirements, adheres to standards, and delivers measurable business value. * Strengthen System Reliability: Improve observability, performance, and operational excellence across services and components. * Support Cross-Functional Delivery: Collaborate effectively with lead engineers, designers, PMs, and client stakeholders. * Raise the Bar: Contribute to better patterns, tooling, and engineering standards across teams. * Enhance Customer Success: Proactively identify and resolve technical issues that could impact system behavior or user experience. Responsibilities * Implement features across frontend, backend, and cloud components. * Participate in technical design discussions and contribute to architectural decisions. * Write clean, scalable, and secure code following Very's engineering standards. * Create and maintain automated tests across all layers of the stack. * Support deployments, CI/CD pipelines, logging, monitoring, and alerting. * Participate in code reviews, offering constructive feedback that improves overall quality. * Participate in 24/7 on-call rotation and assist in diagnosing and resolving production issues. * Support documentation and knowledge sharing within teams. ## Related Videos - [Reducing LLM Calls with Vector Search Patterns - Raphael De Lio (Redis)](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1714-reducing-llm-calls-with-vector-search-patterns-raphael-de-lio-redis) - [From DevOps to Scaled DevOps: How We’re Rebuilding Continuous Delivery as a Platform](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100018-from-devops-to-scaled-devops-how-we-re-rebuilding-continuous-delivery-as-a-platform) - [Innovating Developer Tools with AI: Insights from GitHub Next](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1268-innovating-developer-tools-with-ai-insights-from-github-next) - [Developer Tools for Microsoft Azure](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/450-developer-tools-for-microsoft-azure) - [Accelerating Authentication Architecture: Taking Passwordless to the Next Level](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/733-accelerating-authentication-architecture-taking-passwordless-to-the-next-level) - [Shipping Faster with Less: Render on Cloud Hosting, AI Workloads, and the Future of DevOps](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1894-shipping-faster-with-less-render-on-cloud-hosting-ai-workloads-and-the-future-of-devops) ## Related Articles - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [What Are The Top Skills Required For Azure Developers?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/77-what-are-the-top-skills-required-for-azure-developers) - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated) - [The 12 Best Jobs for Software Engineers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/401-the-12-best-jobs-for-software-engineers) - [Find a Developer Job: 12 Best Job Sites For Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/165-find-a-developer-job-12-best-job-sites-for-developers) - [Where to Find Entry-Level Software Engineering Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/397-where-to-find-entry-level-software-engineering-jobs)
