## Description

* Build, test, and maintain C#/.NET microservices, primarily as Azure Function Apps, across the content
management and streaming-support domains.

 * Implement event-driven workflows using Azure Service Bus and other messaging patterns.
 * Develop and consume RESTful APIs, and contribute to containerized, cloud-agnostic services running on
Kubernetes.

 * Turn stories and epics into working implementation, and participate in design discussions, code reviews,
and testing.

 * Help operate services in production: monitoring, troubleshooting, and addressing performance and
reliability issues.

 * Work cloud-native across our Azure/AWS environment, following the infrastructure-as-code and CI/CD
practices set by the cloud team and Cloud Architect.

 * Collaborate in an Agile/Scrum team with disciplined source control: clear branching, pull requests, and
code review.
