Senior .NET Backend Engineer (with DevOps & Product Ownership)

📍 Nordhavn, Copenhagen (on-site)

Dryp builds IoT- and data-driven technology that helps utilities and cities prevent flooding and reduce environmental impact from wastewater and stormwater systems. We combine advanced sensor networks, hydrological modelling, and cloud software to enable real-time operational decisions for utilities across the Nordics.

With growing demand and products ready for scale, we’re strengthening our backend and cloud capabilities. We’re now looking for a senior .NET engineer who wants to lead our backend development, drive architecture and DevOps decisions, and help shape the product direction together with our hydrology, data, and frontend teams.

The Role

You will play a central role in building Dryp’s cloud platform and data services. This includes ownership and initiative—not waiting for fully scoped tasks.

You will:

• Design and develop cloud-native .NET services powering our APIs, data systems, and event-driven workflows.

• Take responsibility for backend architecture and DevOps choices (deployment, monitoring, observability, CI/CD).

• Collaborate closely with product, hydrologists, and frontend engineers to shape valuable features from real operational problems.

• Help the team define best practices for code quality, testing, and maintainability.

• Work hands-on with infrastructure (AWS, containerization, Infra as Code) and influence how we scale our stack.

Who You Are

We’re looking for someone who goes beyond implementation tasks and wants to drive the backend direction.

You likely recognise yourself in this:

• You take initiative and prefer shaping solutions rather than waiting for perfect specs.

• You are curious about the problem domain and enjoy talking to people who use your software.

• You’re pragmatic: you know when to experiment fast, and when to engineer for reliability.

• You believe DevOps is part of building software—not a separate department.

• You enjoy working in a growing team and influencing how we work, not just what we build.

Experience That Matters

Must-haves

• Professional senior experience (+5 years) with .NET backend development.

• Ability to take ownership of architecture and DevOps/operations decisions.

• Experience building products in a startup/scale-up or similar fast-moving environment.

• Comfortable collaborating across the stack with other engineers and developers (bonus if you’ve worked with React to some degree).

Nice-to-haves

• AWS experience (our platform runs fully on AWS).

• Infrastructure as Code (Helm, Terraform etc.).

• Streaming or event-driven architectures (e.g., Kafka, Pulsar and/or SQS).

• Containerization & orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes).

What We Offer

• Impact: your work influences how cities adapt to climate challenges.

• Ownership of meaningful technical decisions—not just implementation.

• A team of empathetic engineers and hydrology experts working towards a clear purpose.

• A collaborative office with a sea view in Trifork’s community in Nordhavn (morning swim optional).

• Work-life balance, flexibility, and respect for your time and energy.
