About the Role

We are looking for a highly competent and self-motivated Software Engineer to join the CMS product engineering team. In this role you will be a core contributor to product development using the Microsoft technology stack, writing effective, reusable, and modular code backed by unit tests. You will work with minimal supervision in a fast-paced, agile environment alongside a talented cross-functional team.

Problems We Are Looking to Solve

• Building scalable, maintainable features on top of a large-scale distributed product platform.
• Improving reliability and performance of CMS modules used by 2,000+ enterprise customers.
• Raising engineering quality through test-driven development, code reviews, and CI/CD discipline.
• Accelerating feature velocity by introducing modern frontend patterns (Angular) alongside a mature .NET backend.
• Driving cloud-readiness of product components through Azure services integration.
• Reducing technical debt by refactoring legacy code into modular, documented, and well-tested units.

Key Responsibilities

Core Product Development

• Design, develop, and maintain product features using C#/.NET and Angular 2.0+.
• Write clean, reusable, and well-documented code with comprehensive unit and integration tests.
• Participate actively in code reviews, contributing to team quality standards and knowledge sharing.
• Work within SQL Server and MongoDB to design efficient schemas and performant queries.
• Integrate Azure cloud services into product components as required.

Engineering Practices & Delivery

• Participate in Scrum ceremonies — sprint planning, standups, retrospectives, and backlog grooming.
• Maintain CI/CD pipelines using Git with sound branching and merging practices.
• Follow test-driven development (TDD) practices; own test coverage for delivered features.
• Diagnose and resolve bugs, performance issues, and technical incidents in owned modules.
• Contribute to technical design discussions and architecture decisions for new features.

Platform & Infrastructure

• Develop and maintain Docker-based containerised application components.
• Build with awareness of distributed, event-driven system patterns used across the platform.
• Support integration with CMS platforms as feature requirements dictate.
• Contribute to cloud cost efficiency and performance optimization in Azure deployments.

Ideal Candidate Profile

A sharp, self-driven software engineer with strong fundamentals in the Microsoft stack, a bias for quality, and the ability to thrive in a product-focused engineering culture. You write code you're proud of, test what you ship, and bring a collaborative mindset to everything you build. Experience in a product-based software company is a strong differentiator.

Required Experience & Qualifications

• MCA or BE/BTech in Computer Science or equivalent discipline.
• 1-3 years of hands-on experience with the Microsoft technology stack (C#/.NET, SQL Server).
• 1+ years of experience with Angular 2.0 or above.
• Proven experience building large-scale distributed applications with event-based programming patterns.
• Strong foundations in algorithms and data structures.
• Working knowledge of Azure cloud services.
• Proficiency with Git, CI/CD workflows, branching strategies, and Scrum methodology.
• Experience with NoSQL databases such as MongoDB is an advantage.
• Familiarity with CMS platforms is an advantage.
• Experience with Docker-based containerised applications is an advantage.
• Strong verbal and written communication skills in English.
• Prior experience in a SaaS product-based company is strongly preferred.
• Prior experience with AI-assisted coding tools will be a strong advantage.

Key Focus Areas

• Feature delivery quality and test coverage on C#/.NET and Angular modules
• CI/CD pipeline health and Git discipline
• Azure cloud service integration and cloud-aware development
• Distributed system performance and scalability
• Engineering craftsmanship: clean code, documentation, and modular design
