About the job

Alongside partners with organizations to drive digital transformation and build high-performing tech teams.

We're looking for a mid-level engineer to own both backend service development and data engineering on a realtime facility navigation and asset-tracking platform for industrial and logistics sites. The platform ingests live positioning and telemetry data from BLE-based tracking hardware, correlates it into events (e.g., asset pickups, movement, dwell time), and exposes it through backend services to web and mobile clients.

What You'll Do

  • Design, build, and maintain backend services and APIs (C#/.NET) that power the platform's core business logic.
  • Implement and maintain the service layer for asset tracking, facility navigation, and event detection features.
  • Integrate with third-party positioning/telemetry providers and their APIs.
  • Define and evolve API contracts in collaboration with the frontend team (web admin portal and mobile app).
  • Write automated tests, participate in code review, and help keep the codebase maintainable as the platform grows.
  • Support deployment, monitoring, and troubleshooting of backend services in production.

Requirements

What We're Looking For

  • 2–5 years of professional software engineering experience.
  • Strong proficiency in C#/.NET for backend service development.
  • Experience integrating with third-party APIs and webhooks.
  • Comfortable working with real-time or near-real-time data processing requirements.
  • Experience with a major cloud platform (Azure preferred, given the .NET stack).
  • Strong communication skills and comfort working in a small, cross-functional, fast-moving team.

Nice to Have

  • Experience with actor-model or distributed-systems frameworks (e.g., Orleans).
  • Background in industrial, logistics, or IoT domains.

Benefits

  • Remote work  (Vietnam-based)
  • Estimated project duration:  19 weeks
  • Full-time schedule: 4 hours per day overlapping with Portugal business hours
  • Freelance / Service Agreement
  • Hourly Rate:  12$-16$
