Freelance Full stack .NET Developer (Angular / React)

You build the business applications that train traveller’s, grid operators and government services use every day. With C# and .NET at the back, Angular or React at the front and a pipeline that just works, you turn a backlog into software that goes live and stays live.

Key takeaways 

• You build full-stack applications in C#/.NET and Angular or React for public-sector and utility clients.

• You own your features from API design to deployment, with clean code, tests and Azure DevOps pipelines.

• You bring 5+ years of .NET experience and the calm of someone who has survived a production incident or two.

Your role 

Build & Deliver 

• You design and build REST APIs in modern .NET, with Entity Framework Core underneath.

• You build front ends in Angular with TypeScript, or in React where the client chose that path, that people can use without a manual.

• You turn functional analyses and user stories into working features, sprint after sprint.

Quality & Pipelines 

• You write unit tests because you like sleeping at night, not only because the definition of done says so.

• You keep code clean, readable and SOLID, so the next developer does not need an archaeologist.

• You set up and maintain CI/CD pipelines in Azure DevOps, so a release is routine and not an event.

Data

• You design data models and write SQL that performs, on SQL Server and, at several clients, on Oracle.

Team & Client 

• You work in Scrum teams with analysts, testers and architects, and you speak up when a story does not add up.

• You help less experienced developers along with code reviews and a fair amount of patience.

• You represent adesso at the client: reliable, clear and pleasant to work with.

Required Skills & Knowledge 

.NET & API’s 

• You have 5+ years of professional C# / .NET development, including recent work on .NET Core, .NET 6 or .NET 8.

• You design and build REST / Web APIs and know your way around Entity Framework or EF Core.

Front-end 

• You build with recent versions of Angular, TypeScript, HTML and CSS.

• React experience is a strong plus: several clients ask for it next to Angular.

Data 

• You are at home in relational databases and SQL. SQL Server is a given; Oracle and PL/SQL give you a clear edge.

Devops & Quality 

• You use Azure DevOps, YAML pipelines and Git every day.

• You write unit tests with xUnit or NUnit.

Nice to have 

• Azure services such as App Services, API Management, Storage and Azure AD B2C.

• CQRS, event-driven design, and state management with NGRX.

• Docker and containers.

• Experience in the public sector or with utilities.

Your profile 

• you bring at least 5 years of full-stack experience with .NET and Angular or React, at medior to senior level.

• You work as an independent freelancer and are open to assignments of 12 months or longer.

• You are fluent in Dutch plus English. French is a plus.

• You are fine with hybrid work, with regular days on site in Brussels, Ghent or Antwerp.

• You follow what is new in .NET and Angular, and you share what you learn rather than keeping it in a private repo..
