Senior .NET Developer (Backend + Azure DevOps) Location: Chandigarh / Mohali (Hybrid/Remote) | Type: Full-time | Experience: 6+ Years The Role We are looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to join our core team and take ownership of a live, multi-portal web application. This isn't a spec-driven, cog-in-a-machine role. You will be stepping in to audit an existing ASP.NET Core codebase, stabilize the production environment, and lead the architecture for new enterprise features. If you enjoy the detective work of untangling unfamiliar code and the satisfaction of building scalable Azure infrastructure from scratch, this is for you. What You'll Do Codebase Rescue & Audit: Dive into an existing ASP.NET Core application to identify security gaps, structural flaws, and architectural risks. Write new apis and ensure its management too Production Stabilization: Troubleshoot and fix defects on a live system serving real users. End-to-End Delivery: Architect and develop new features across authentication (JWT/Identity), EF Core, and real-time workflows. Azure Infrastructure: Own the cloud architecture—manage Resource Groups, App Services, Azure SQL, and Application Insights independently. DevOps Mastery: Build, maintain, and secure CI/CD pipelines (Azure DevOps) to ensure safe, zero-downtime deployments. Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with our Angular frontend team to debug cross-stack issues and ensure smooth API integrations. The Must-Haves 6+ years of hands-on experience with ASP.NET Core and Entity Framework Core in live production environments. Deep understanding of EF Core internals: lazy loading, navigation properties, DbContext configurations, and LINQ-to-SQL translation limits. Proven expertise with JWT authentication and ASP.NET Identity. Strong SQL Server skills: indexing, query optimization, and debugging slow queries. Hands-on Azure Cloud & DevOps experience—you must be comfortable configuring infrastructure and pipelines from scratch, not just pushing code to pre-configured environments. A security-first mindset—instinctively spotting hardcoded credentials, unsafe auth patterns, and unguarded deployment steps. Strong incident response skills and the ability to diagnose live issues under pressure without needing the problem pre-diagnosed. Experience with real-time applications (WebSockets/SignalR). Timeline: Immediate start required. Interested? Send me a DM

Your Azure DevOps pipeline is a single point of failure if it's not using environment-specific variable groups and approval gates. Without proper separation between staging and production, one bad merge can take down your live system. Quick questions - are you currently using slot swaps for zero-downtime deployments? And what's your rollback strategy if a release introduces a critical defect in production? Here is the architectural approach: - CODEBASE AUDIT: I'll map your EF Core navigation properties to identify N+1 query patterns causing database bottlenecks and refactor using explicit loading. - AZURE INFRASTRUCTURE: I'll configure Resource Groups with role-based access control, Application Insights telemetry, and automated scaling rules tied to CPU thresholds. - CI/CD SECURITY: I'll build pipelines with secret scanning, automated rollback triggers, and environment-specific approval workflows to prevent unauthorized production pushes. I've stabilized 4 legacy ASP.NET Core systems that were bleeding money on Azure costs due to inefficient queries and missing caching layers. Let's schedule a 20-minute technical call to review your current pipeline configuration and database schema.

Untangling undocumented .NET Core systems and stabilizing Azure production environments is what I do weekly. You need someone who can quickly audit a live multi-portal app, spot architectural risks, and lead fixes without breaking workflows—especially under pressure. I’ve done this for SaaS platforms like WeekPlan and SmartTrack, where uptime and security were non-negotiable. At SmartTrack, I owned .NET backend and Azure infrastructure (App Services, SQL, DevOps pipelines), and recently implemented a real-time chat system using SignalR for the TipTop Platform App—handling high-concurrency messaging securely. I also led CI/CD setup with zero-downtime deployments using Azure DevOps. My approach: 1) Audit code structure, EF Core usage, and auth patterns (JWT/Identity), 2) Review Azure resource layout and pipeline security, 3) Identify query bottlenecks and incident response gaps, 4) Stabilize production while planning clean feature delivery. I can review your repo structure or API design today—happy to outline a starting plan.

I can first audit the existing ASP.NET Core application for security gaps, architectural risks, inefficient EF Core/LINQ queries, authentication issues, and production defects, then prioritize fixes based on business impact. I’ll stabilize the live system by tracing API failures, slow SQL queries, DbContext/navigation-property issues, concurrency problems, and integration errors, with logging and Application Insights used for root-cause analysis. I’ll develop and maintain secure APIs using C#, ASP.NET Core, EF Core, JWT/ASP.NET Identity, SignalR, and SQL Server, while optimizing indexes, queries, and LINQ-to-SQL translation where required. I’ll take ownership of Azure infrastructure including Resource Groups, App Services, Azure SQL, configuration/secrets, monitoring, and Application Insights. I’ll build secure Azure DevOps CI/CD pipelines with environment controls, approvals, rollback strategy, and deployment practices designed to minimize production downtime. I’ll coordinate closely with the Angular team to resolve API contract

The biggest hidden issue in a live multi-portal ASP.NET Core app is mismatched JWT validation that can let one portal expose another's data. I'd start by adding a shared authentication middleware that enforces the same token checks across all portals and logs any anomalies. Then I'll tighten the Azure DevOps pipeline by adding a secret scan step and a quick rollback stage to keep deployments zero-downtime. A common mistake I see is relying on EF Core lazy loading in production without explicit include statements, which can cause N+1 query storms. I'll replace those spots with targeted includes and add a query-performance logger so you see slow calls before users notice. You can expect a stable API surface, faster page loads, and confidence that new features won't break the existing portals.
