The posting

Principal Backend Engineer (C#/.NET/Azure) - Hybrid Lisbon

ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITY

Join a Portuguese Logistics as a Service platform that handles everything that happens after the customer clicks "buy". It brings orders from every sales channel into a single dashboard, digitizes in-store picking, and optimizes delivery routes in real time, so physical stores work as mini distribution hubs. This is a hands-on Principal Backend Engineer role. You will shape the architecture of the systems that power this operation and also write the code that brings it to life. You'll work in a hybrid model from Lisbon with a flexible schedule, in a dynamic startup culture that values innovation and ownership.

PROJECT & CONTEXT

The platform is built on microservices, asynchronous communication and an event-driven architecture running on Azure. It processes omnichannel orders, in-store fulfilment workflows and real-time delivery routing for retailers and e-commerce businesses. Your work will include:

  • Owning and influencing the architecture of critical backend systems across multiple domains, including order management, fulfilment and delivery
  • Designing scalable, resilient solutions with C#, .NET and microservices
  • Designing and evolving event-driven and asynchronous workflows that keep orders, stock and deliveries in sync in real time
  • Defining service boundaries, integration approaches and communication patterns
  • Making pragmatic architectural decisions that balance scalability, reliability, maintainability and operational complexity
  • Establishing engineering standards, patterns and best practices across teams
  • Mentoring engineers through design reviews and code reviews
  • Driving improvements in performance, observability, testing, CI/CD and production reliability
  • Identifying technical risks and opportunities early, before they become problems

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR (Required)

  • 8+ years of professional software development experience, with significant backend work in C# and modern .NET
  • Strong hands-on experience designing and operating microservices and distributed systems in production
  • Proven experience with event-driven architectures and messaging technologies such as RabbitMQ, Kafka, Azure Service Bus, AWS SQS or equivalent
  • Deep understanding of asynchronous systems and their failure scenarios, including idempotency, retries, dead-letter queues, eventual consistency and transactional messaging
  • Strong experience with relational databases and SQL Server
  • Solid grasp of software architecture and design principles, including DDD, SOLID and Clean Architecture
  • Experience with cloud platforms
  • Experience with automated testing, CI/CD and production observability
  • Track record of mentoring engineers and influencing technical decisions across teams
  • Experience using AI development assistants as part of your engineering workflow
  • Good communication skills in English (required)
  • Based in Lisbon or able to commute to the Lisbon office

NICE TO HAVE (Preferred)

  • Azure experience, especially serverless services such as Azure Functions
  • Azure SQL experience
  • Background in logistics, retail, e-commerce or omnichannel fulfilment platforms

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
