[8BE] Senior Backend Engineer

Posted Updated
Discussion

We’re building the backend of a white-label B2B e-commerce platform for a leading US promotional products company. The platform powers multiple branded Shopify Plus storefronts. It runs on a fully decoupled microservices architecture on AWS covering Identity, Profile, Order Management, Inventory, Pricing, Catalog, and Marketplace integrations. The existing legacy services stay supported while the migration happens.

What you’ll do:

  • Design and build scalable RESTful microservices with ASP.NET Core Web API (.NET 8) and CQRS
  • Own core services: Order Management, Inventory, Pricing Engine, Catalog Sync, and Notifications
  • Build and consume Shopify Webhooks and REST/GraphQL APIs (Storefront API, Admin API)
  • Integrate with external systems such as Amazon SP-API, Walmart Marketplace API, ERP, payment gateways, and tax services
  • Work with legacy services where the migration is phased or partial
  • Write unit, integration, and BDD tests (xUnit, Reqnroll, FluentAssertions)
  • Define API contracts and inter-service communication (SQS, EventBridge) with the Team Lead
  • Take part in code reviews and architecture decisions, and help hold the engineering standard
  • Support environment setup and infrastructure-as-code with DevOps on AWS
  • Join sprint planning, stand-ups, and technical discussions with the client

Must have:

  • 4+ years of backend development with strong C# / .NET (ASP.NET Core, .NET 6+)
  • Solid grasp of clean architecture: DDD, CQRS, repository pattern, dependency injection
  • Experience building and integrating REST APIs, including OpenAPI / Swagger
  • Working knowledge of AWS: Lambda, SQS, S3, RDS or DynamoDB
  • Relational (PostgreSQL or SQL Server) and NoSQL (MongoDB) databases
  • JWT / OAuth 2.0 authentication
  • Brownfield experience: plugging new services into existing systems
  • Docker and containerized workflows
  • Strong written and spoken English
  • Agile/Scrum with Jira

Nice to have:

  • Retail, e-commerce, or B2B commerce experience (catalogs, pricing engines, cart/checkout, marketplace integrations)
  • Marketplace API integrations (Amazon SP-API, Walmart)
  • Event-driven architecture (EventBridge, RabbitMQ)
  • Keycloak and multi-realm identity management
  • EF Core with Npgsql
  • Promotional products or print-on-demand domain knowledge
