About The Role

As a .NET Software Engineer at Carfinance247 in the Lenders team, you will focus on backend development using .NET Core/C#, working within an event-driven architecture. Your primary responsibilities will include designing and building services using Azure Functions and Azure Service Bus to process events and integrate with external APIs. Alongside cloud-based development, you will also be responsible for upgrading and maintaining legacy systems that operate outside of the cloud, ensuring they remain functional and compatible with modern solutions.
