Responsibilities

• Build and extend event-sourced .NET services on .NET 10 / ASP.NET Core, deployed to AWS EKS behind an Istio service mesh
• Implement aggregates, commands, events and read-model projections using Marten (PostgreSQL event store) and Wolverine (command handling and messaging)
• Implement vertical slices from the event model through to a working feature — backend handlers, projections, GraphQL API and the React screens that use them — with design support from senior engineers on the harder calls
• Build GraphQL APIs with Hot Chocolate, including filtering, sorting, pagination and multi-tenant request handling
• Work with AWS Kinesis streams and Amazon MSK (Kafka) for cross-service integration, and learn to design handlers that are idempotent and safe to replay
• Read and update the team's event models (draw.io), keeping them in step with the code, and take part in the modelling sessions where new slices are shaped
• Work with the Terraform infrastructure and Helm deployments for your services, and with the Azure DevOps pipelines that build, deploy and test them — extending both under review
• Use AI coding agents as a normal part of delivery: the shared ecpq-skills plugin, per-repo CLAUDE.md/AGENTS.md conventions, and AI-assisted PR review — with your own judgement on top of the output
• Contribute to the React 18 + TypeScript frontend (urql, TanStack Query, Vite) when a feature needs full-stack delivery
• Write meaningful tests, instrument what you build, and take part in code and design reviews
• Contribute to the modernization of the established CPQ and Pricepoint products, including moving business logic out of SQL Server stored procedures into maintainable .NET code

Requirements

AI-assisted engineering — expected, not optional

• 3+ years of backend development in modern .NET (.NET 6 or newer)
• Working understanding of Domain-Driven Design and CQRS, and a real appetite to go deeper into event sourcing — projections, eventual consistency, idempotent handlers. We'll teach the specifics; you bring the instinct for modelling a domain properly
• Comfort with asynchronous and message-driven code — queues, streams, retries, and what happens when a message arrives twice or out of order
• Solid SQL and relational data modelling; PostgreSQL experience preferred
• Experience building HTTP or GraphQL APIs that someone else consumes, and care about how they behave under error
• Docker and working familiarity with Kubernetes — enough to read a Helm chart, find your pod and read its logs
• Exposure to a major cloud, ideally AWS (IAM, S3, EKS, Secrets Manager)
• CI/CD pipelines — Azure DevOps preferred — and Git-based workflows with PR review and required checks
• Testing you'd defend: xUnit, integration tests against real dependencies, and a view on what's worth mocking
• Regular hands-on use of an AI coding agent (Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Cursor or equivalent) on real code, not demos
• Ability to break a ticket into steps an agent can execute, then review the output critically — spotting invented APIs, quiet behaviour changes and missing edge cases
• Willingness to keep agent context files (CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or equivalent) current, and to use the team's shared skills rather than working around them
• Full ownership of anything you merge, regardless of who or what wrote the first draft

• Monthly benefits allowance, meal contributions

MultiSport card available

• Modern cozy offices in Prague, Hradec Kralove, and Ostrava, no large open-space floors or cubicles, rec room with games and books
