Description

We are looking for Microservices Developers to build and operate the backend C#/.NET services that power TEGNA's content management and streaming platforms.

Responsibilities:

  • Build, test, and maintain C#/.NET microservices, primarily as Azure Function Apps, across the content management and streaming-support domains.
  • Implement event-driven workflows using Azure Service Bus and other messaging patterns.
  • Develop and consume RESTful APIs, and contribute to containerized, cloud-agnostic services running on Kubernetes.
  • Turn stories and epics into working implementation, and participate in design discussions, code reviews, and testing.
  • Help operate services in production: monitoring, troubleshooting, and addressing performance and reliability issues.
  • Work cloud-native across our Azure/AWS environment, following the infrastructure-as-code and CI/CD practices set by the cloud team and Cloud Architect.
  • Collaborate in an Agile/Scrum team with disciplined source control: clear branching, pull requests, and code review.

Requirements:

  • 2+ years of professional software engineering experience building backend services (or equivalent strong fundamentals).
  • Working proficiency in C#/.NET; experience with serverless/Azure Functions is a plus.
  • Understanding of RESTful API design and basic distributed-systems concepts.
  • Exposure to messaging or event-driven patterns (Service Bus, queues, pub/sub) is a plus.
  • Hands-on experience with cloud-native development (Azure and/or AWS) , not solely on-premises systems , is valued; eagerness to grow into our hybrid stack.
  • Comfortable working in an Agile/Scrum team with Git-based source control at a team level.
  • Exposure to Docker, Kubernetes, or Terraform, and a habit of writing tests, are pluses.
  • Media, streaming, or high-traffic platform experience is a plus.

Benefits:

  • Comprehensive benefits package including medical, dental, and vision coverage, 401(k) matching, and paid time off.
  • Access to virtual doctor's appointments and therapy sessions.
  • Generous PTO policy and paid holidays.
