Our must-haves:
- A consistent record as a hands-on C# .Net/.Net Core developer
- SQL skills in order to create performant database structures and queries, should the application require it
- Understanding design principles and patterns for building scalable applications
- Experience of creating and consuming restful API’s, and integrating to web services
- Experience of delivering software through Agile practices
- The ability to create testable code and be able to write unit tests to achieve a target code coverage
- Credibility in articulating your approach to a solution to other members of the Engineering team
- Experience developing in the cloud (particularly Azure)
