Main requirements

What we need from you:

  • Hands-on Technical Excellence: At least 9+ years of commercial experience in .NET (C#). You still love writing code and believe in delivering readable, maintainable software covered with automated tests.
  • Refinement & Analysis Mastery: You take ownership of the technical analysis for upcoming functionalities, ensuring the team understands the what and how before the sprint begins.
  • Estimation & Planning: You set the standard for realistic and complete work estimation, helping the team and the client build predictable roadmaps.
    Client Partnership: You are a natural communicator (C1 English) who can talk to both developers and business stakeholders, creating RFC and other types of technical documentation, explaining technical debt, reliability, and observability in a way that creates buy-in.
  • Architectural Vision: Deep understanding of Microservices, Distributed Systems, and API Design (REST, GraphQL, gRPC).
    Radical Accountability: You are the first to identify and report risks of delay or priority shifts. You proactively confirm that plans are valid, understanding that “no news is not good news.”
  • Quality Leadership: A drive to implement best practices that serve as a reference for others and set the quality standards (not only for code but also for how you work with the internal and customer development teams) both internally and externally.
  • Hands-on experience with AWS, Azure, or GCP and Infrastructure as Code (Terraform).

We Appreciate If You Have:

  • Experience in other backend or frontend languages and curiosity for new technologies.
  • Proficiency in leveraging AI tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, LLMs) to optimize development workflows and code quality.
  • Interest or experience in navigating regulatory standards like HIPAA or GDPR.

Your daily life in HTD will be focusing around:

  • Working with development team (or teams), delivering enterprise-level software built with both high-impact features and layers of maintainability and observability.
  • Ensuring work quality through overseeing the technical analysis, planning, execution as well as meticulous reviews and mentoring throughout the process.
  • Working closely with clients (and their dev teams) to align technical decisions with business goals, acting as the main point of contact for everything related to our technical cooperation.
  • Being the “go-to” person for team talks, internal workshops, and hackathons—actively raising the technical bar for everyone.
  • Comparing tools and services to provide authoritative recommendations for new projects or features.
  • Keeping technical debt visible and ensuring that stakeholders understand the importance of application stability and observability.

  • 100% remote friendly

    Work from any location in Poland or the United States. We have no fixed expectations related to you being in the office.

  • Educational budget

    Opportunity for development with education budget. Are you interested in a certified training or international conference? No problem, the choice is yours.

  • Health & life

    HTD covers private medical care and life insurance. Just in case.

  • Membership cards

  • Equipment

    An ergonomic office that includes standing desks, footstools, kneeling chairs or large cushions if that’s what you prefer.
