We’re looking for our next Senior Software Engineer. Could It Be You?

We’re building the next-generation Loan Origination System for Questbank’s Secured Lending business — a distributed, event-sourced platform that powers how we take a loan from application to funding. It’s a microservices architecture on Google Cloud Platform (GCP), designed from the ground up with Domain-Driven Design, Event Sourcing, and CQRS.

As a Senior Software Engineer on this team, you’ll design and build core services end to end, from domain modelling through to production support. You’ll work across a .NET backend and an Angular frontend, and you’ll own the quality of what you ship — including the automated tests that keep us moving fast. We’re looking for someone who thinks like an owner: someone who understands the business problem behind the ticket and helps shape the product, not just implement it.

Need more details? Keep reading…

• Design and build microservices for the Loan Origination System using Domain-Driven Design as the foundation for how we model the business.
• Implement and evolve an Event-Sourced system with CQRS — designing aggregates, events, projections, and read models.
• Build and integrate services across two communication patterns: asynchronous messaging via Pub/Sub and synchronous HTTP.
• Develop backend services in .NET and contribute to the Angular frontend.
• Deploy and operate services on GCP.
• Write and maintain automated tests across the stack, including end-to-end coverage.
• Provide production support for the systems you build — diagnosing issues, improving observability, and keeping services healthy.
• Partner with product and business stakeholders to translate lending needs into well-designed software, bringing a product mindset to technical decisions.

So are YOU our next Senior Software Engineer? You are if you…

• Senior-level experience building backend services in .NET.
• Hands-on experience with Domain-Driven Design (DDD) and a solid grasp of its core patterns and strategic design.
• Production experience with Event Sourcing.
• Production experience with CQRS.
• Experience designing and building distributed, microservices-based systems.
• Experience with cloud infrastructure, ideally GCP.
• Experience with both asynchronous (Pub/Sub-style messaging) and synchronous (HTTP/REST) communication patterns.
• Frontend development experience with Angular.
• A track record of writing automated tests and treating quality as part of delivery.
• Real production support experience — you’ve been on the hook for the systems you’ve shipped.
• A product mindset: you care about the user and business outcome, ask “why,” and help shape what gets built.
• Tech stack at a glance
• Backend: .NET
• Frontend: Angular
• Cloud: Google Cloud Platform (GCP)
• Architecture: Distributed microservices, Domain-Driven Design, Event Sourcing, CQRS
• Communication: Async (Pub/Sub), Sync (HTTP)
• Testing: Automated tests across the stack; Playwright / Cypress an asset
