The Role

We are looking for a Senior Umbraco Developer on behalf of one of our high-growth clients to serve as the lead architect of their content management systems. In this role, you will take complete ownership of designing, building, and extending enterprise-level Umbraco solutions, migrating legacy instances, and transforming standard monolithic setups into modern, lightning-fast digital experience platforms.

What we are looking for:

• 3+ years of dedicated, hands-on experience developing with Umbraco CMS, with strong production exposure to modern versions (Umbraco 10, 12, 13, or 14+ built on .NET Core).
• 5+ years of enterprise experience in backend development using C#, .NET Core/.NET 6+, ASP.NET MVC, and Web API.
• Proven experience building decoupled or headless architectures using Umbraco's Content Delivery API. Strong proficiency in building and consuming RESTful APIs, GraphQL, and webhook patterns.
• Deep knowledge of Microsoft SQL Server, Entity Framework Core, and Umbraco-specific caching layers (Examine, Lucene, or custom caching providers) to keep high-traffic sites running under low latency.
• Solid experience deploying and managing Umbraco ecosystems in cloud-native environments, utilizing Azure Web Apps, Azure SQL, Blob Storage, and Azure Cognitive Search.
• Strict adherence to SOLID principles, design patterns, and secure coding standards (OWASP). Familiarity setting up automated CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps) to handle database migrations and code deployments smoothly.

Nice-to-have:

• Official Umbraco Certified Master or Professional credentials.
• Experience with Umbraco Cloud or multi-tenant/multi-lingual localization architectures.
• Frontend familiarity with modern JavaScript frameworks (React, Vue, or Angular) for headless implementations.
• Background in e-commerce platforms integrated into Umbraco landscapes (e.g., Umbraco Commerce / Vendr).

Responsibilities

• Architect enterprise-grade Umbraco implementations, designing custom document types, compositions, block grid editors, and custom backoffice extensions.
• Lead the architectural planning and execution of upgrading older Umbraco versions (v7/v8) to modern, .NET Core-based instances.
• Build custom Umbraco packages, controllers, and APIs to securely feed frontend platforms and exchange data with external business systems.
• Optimize the content editor workflow inside the backoffice, ensuring content teams can easily manage complex layouts independently.
• Establish and enforce strict code standards, run peer code reviews, and mentor mid-level developers on idiomatic .NET and Umbraco patterns.
