Senior Software Engineer - Event-Driven Distributed Systems (C# / Azure)

Arnhem · Hybrid (2 days onsite) 32–40 hrs/week, incredibly flexible set-up.

€67k–€90k depending on experience

This is infrastructure, not app dev.

When an EV charges, identity, roaming, tariffs, and settlement all need to align in real-time.

If any part misbehaves, charging stops.

This team builds the platform that ensures it just works globally.

About the Team:

• Small, senior, engineering-led.
• Founded in 2020. Used across Europe, South America, Asia, and Australia.
• Everything is built in-house - no corporate layers, no noise.
• The architecture is microservices done properly:clear boundaries, asynchronous communication, strong contracts, and observability baked in that.

The Work:

You’ll be working across systems that have real operational consequences:

• Event-driven microservices in a distributed environment
• APIs are relied on for uptime and accuracy
• Messaging flows that must be reliable, traceable, and debuggable
• Data that must stay coherent across async processing

This is ownership and design, not ticket-taking.

Tech Stack & (the important part)

• C# / .NET 8 (progressively upgraded across services)
• Azure (Functions, Service Bus, Cosmos DB, SQL)
• Structured logging & tracing (Application Insights / OpenTelemetry)
• Messaging resilience: retries, idempotency, DLQs, outbox patterns
• CI/CD that is intentionally simple — one-click, predictable deploys

The philosophy: clarity, reliability, debuggability.

You

• Strong C# + production API/service experience
• Comfortable working in a distributed cloud environment
• Think in systems: failure modes, latency, consistency, load
• Prefer simple and maintainable over clever and fragile

Blazor or EV/energy experience is a bonus. Curiosity, judgement, and standards are.

Compensation & Setup

• €67k–€80k typical
• Up to ~€90k for deeper distributed systems/domain experience
• 8% holiday pay • 25 days • 50% pension contribution
• €0.23/km travel • Hybrid + up to 4 weeks abroad per year
• Dutch lessons available
• 12-month → intended conversion to permanent

Culture

Small. Senior.

No politics. No “velocity dashboards”. No theatre.

Decisions happen in conversation, not committees.

Just grown-ups building software that actually matters.

If this reads like the kind of engineering you should be doing, then reach out, and say hello, and I'll talk you through a few more details. ESOP is also up for grabs, but you gotta earn that, oh, and we're tripling the size of the team in 2026.

Never a better time to join, I'll make that promise.
