Full Stack .NET and SQL Developer

Xeople is a workforce technology company delivering two integrated platforms: Entire OnHire (EOH), a .NET-based end-to-end workforce management platform for the on-hire and staffing industry, and Xeople Recruit (XR), a modern microservices-based recruitment and applicant tracking SaaS product built on AWS.

We are hiring a Full Stack .NET and SQL Developer, based in Seaford, VIC on a hybrid basis (3 days per week from the office), to strengthen our engineering capability with an onshore presence working in close, real-time partnership with our India-based engineering team. This role covers both ongoing product maintenance and new feature/R&D development across the EOH and XR platforms, and works day-to-day alongside our offshore team of developers and QA engineers to keep delivery moving across time zones.

The role provides mid-senior, onshore technical capability that bridges Xeople's Australian product and leadership team with the India-based engineering organisation - supporting timezone coverage, architectural continuity, and faster decision-making. Immediate start is preferred.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, develop, test, and maintain full stack features across Xeople's EOH and XR platforms — covering both day-to-day product maintenance (defect fixes, performance and stability improvements) and new feature / R&D development.
• Write clean, well-tested, maintainable code across the front end (React/Angular) and back end (C#/.NET), following established coding standards and design patterns.
• Design, build, and optimise database schemas, stored procedures, and queries (SQL Server and PostgreSQL) to support application performance, data integrity, and reporting needs.
• Build, integrate, and consume RESTful APIs, working with API gateway patterns and third-party/internal service integrations as required.
• Own delivery, alongside the offshore (India-based) team of developers and QA engineers, across both product maintenance and new R&D workstreams — providing day-to-day technical direction, coordinating priorities, and ensuring consistent delivery quality across time zones.
• Participate actively in code reviews, technical design discussions, and knowledge-sharing across the wider engineering team.
• Diagnose and resolve production issues through proper root cause analysis rather than surface-level fixes.
• Contribute to sprint planning, estimation, and delivery tracking within an Agile/Scrum environment.
• Document technical designs, decisions, and processes clearly to support team continuity, handover, and onboarding.
• Support the onboarding and technical ramp-up of new team members, both onshore and offshore, as the engineering team scales.

Required Skills & Experience

• 5-7 years of professional full stack development experience, with strong proficiency in C# / .NET (Framework and/or Core) and SQL.
• Strong experience with relational databases — SQL Server and PostgreSQL — writing efficient queries, stored procedures, and understanding schema design.
• Experience with RESTful API design and development; exposure to API gateway concepts (WSO2, Kong, Apigee, or similar) is highly regarded.
• Familiarity with containerisation concepts (Docker, Kubernetes) and CI/CD pipelines.
• Experience working in Agile/Scrum delivery environments with sprint-based delivery cycles.
• Demonstrated ability to work independently on well-defined scope while escalating ambiguity early.
• Workforce management, HR technology, payroll, or staffing/recruitment software domain experience is preferable.

Technical Proficiency Requirements

• .NET Core Services / API - Essential
• React - Important
• SQL Server - Important
• ML.NET or Python - Desirable

Preferred Experience

• Prior experience in workforce management, staffing/recruitment technology, HR/payroll systems, or other regulated/compliance-heavy SaaS domains.
• Experience working within a distributed delivery model alongside an offshore engineering team (India-based).
• Experience with ML.NET or integrating .NET applications with external ML/AI services and APIs.
• Understanding of how to structure and pass data between traditional application layers and AI/ML inference services.
• Familiarity with email parsing, natural language processing concepts, or workflow automation systems is a plus.

Engagement Terms

• This is a full-time, permanent position with Entire Software Pty Ltd (Australia), governed by an Australian employment contract and subject to the Fair Work Act 2009 (Cth) and National Employment Standards.
• Standard Australian entitlements apply: annual leave, personal/carer's leave, and other NES minimums; probation period per standard employment terms.
• Superannuation Guarantee contributions at the current statutory rate (12%), paid in line with Payday Super requirements.
• Hybrid role based in Seaford, VIC — 3 days per week in-office, remainder remote.

What Success Looks Like

• Reliable, well-tested code delivered against sprint commitments with minimal rework, across both maintenance and new development work.
• Smooth day-to-day coordination with the offshore development and QA team — clear priorities, consistent quality, and issues caught before reaching production.
• Proactive communication of blockers, risks, and technical trade-offs to Xeople's engineering leadership.
• A healthy balance maintained between keeping existing product functionality stable and progressing new feature/R&D work across both platforms.
• Establishment of a strong onshore technical presence that improves delivery velocity and decision speed across the AU/India engineering split.
