The Role

As a .NET Developer at CK Orbits, you will play a pivotal role in designing, developing, and maintaining robust software solutions that power our digital platforms. You will collaborate with cross-functional teams — from product managers and designers to operations and business stakeholders — to deliver high-quality, scalable applications that make a real impact.

This is a hands-on role for a developer who is passionate about clean code, modern architecture, and continuous improvement. You will have the opportunity to work on diverse projects spanning travel technology, business automation, and customer-facing web applications.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, develop, test, and maintain scalable web applications and APIs using the .NET framework (ASP.NET Core, .NET 6/7/8).
• Build and integrate RESTful APIs and microservices to support front-end applications and third-party systems.
• Collaborate with UI/UX designers to implement responsive, user-friendly front-end experiences using HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript/TypeScript.
• Write clean, maintainable, and well-documented code following SOLID principles and best practices.
• Participate in the full software development lifecycle (SDLC) — from requirements gathering and technical design through to deployment and post-release support.
• Perform code reviews and contribute to improving development standards, processes, and tooling across the team.
• Optimise application performance, troubleshoot bugs, and resolve technical issues in a timely manner.
• Work with SQL Server and/or other relational/non-relational databases to design efficient data models and write complex queries.
• Integrate third-party services, payment gateways, travel APIs, and other external platforms as required.
• Contribute to DevOps practices including CI/CD pipeline management, containerisation (Docker), and cloud deployments (Azure/AWS).
• Stay current with emerging technologies, frameworks, and industry trends, proactively recommending improvements to the technology stack.
• Support and mentor junior developers as the team grows.
