Are you an experienced .NET Developer who enjoys solving complex technical challenges, improving mature systems, and bringing legacy applications into the modern era?
We’re looking for a Senior .NET Developer to join an international technology environment and contribute to the development, modernization, and maintenance of a business-critical digital platform .
This role is particularly suited to someone who combines strong C#/.NET expertise with hands-on PostgreSQL and SQL skills and is comfortable working across both legacy and modern technologies.
🚀 What You’ll Be Doing:
- Develop, maintain, and continuously improve a business-critical .NET application .

- Troubleshoot complex application and database-related issues.
- Write, analyze, and optimize raw SQL queries to improve application and database performance.
- Identify performance bottlenecks and implement effective technical solutions.
- Refactor existing code to improve maintainability, scalability, and overall quality.
- Develop and maintain unit and integration tests .
- Collaborate closely with other developers and stakeholders while taking ownership of individual technical challenges.
- Participate in Agile ceremonies and contribute to continuous improvement across the development lifecycle.
- Explore and use AI-assisted development tools to improve productivity, code quality, and problem-solving.
🔎 What We’re Looking For:
Must-Have Skills:
- Strong professional experience with C# and .NET .
- Commercial experience with both:
- .NET Framework
- Modern .NET (.NET Core / .NET 6+)
- Strong hands-on experience with PostgreSQL in production environments .
- Excellent knowledge of raw SQL , including:
- Complex queries
- Query optimization
- Performance tuning
- Database troubleshooting
- Experience maintaining, refactoring, or modernizing legacy applications .
- Experience with Git/GitHub and collaborative development workflows.
- Hands-on experience with unit and integration testing .
- Experience working within Agile/Scrum environments .
- Strong troubleshooting and analytical problem-solving capabilities.
- Good communication skills and the ability to explain technical topics clearly.
- A proactive and independent mindset , with the ability to take ownership of technical challenges.
⭐ Nice to Have:

💡 The Profile We’re Looking For:
We’re particularly interested in developers who are comfortable working in the space between legacy and modern software engineering .
You should be equally confident navigating an established .NET codebase, investigating a complex PostgreSQL/SQL performance issue , and contributing to the modernization of the application using current .NET practices.
This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys troubleshooting, modernization, performance optimization, and technical ownership , rather than focusing exclusively on greenfield development.
If you’re a strong .NET engineer who enjoys understanding how complex systems really work and improving them step by step, we’d like to hear from you.
Other offers great for you!
