The EH Way (Our DNA)

At Employment Hero, we're proud of our unique DNA, which we call The EH Way.

• We are Mission First – Our Mission determines what we work on, where we invest, and where we focus. Every decision runs through a single filter: does this accelerate our Mission?
• We are Remote First – We champion a remote environment with a preference for asynchronous communication and a high degree of autonomy.
• We are AI First – We are committed to using AI to accelerate our mission; AI is not just a tool, it's a fundamental part of how we operate, innovate, and scale.
• We Live by Our Values – We role model our values 100% of the time.
• We Expect High Performance – We set a high standard and we're not satisfied with being average.

This Role

Our Partnerships and Payroll team is growing. As an Intermediate Full Stack Engineer, you will balance core technical development with an evolving approach to features, ownership, and collaborative problem-solving. This role will help us continue the development and modernizing of our Payroll system, where we're on a journey of moving to a service-oriented and microservices mixed architecture, following our .Net Core migration.

This is a CIM contract opportunity that requires availability across Canadian business hours, Monday–Friday. Core working hours are 11:00am–8:00pm EET.

Your responsibilities will include:

• End-to-End Development: Contribute to development for new and current cloud-based applications, ranging from solution design with your squad and feature development through to production deployment, optimization, and maintenance.
• Problem Solving & Triage: Debug and perform root cause analysis for application issues, focusing on building sustainable solutions rather than simple stop-gaps.
• Quality Control: Investigate existing code for functionality to ensure it meets technical standards, and actively perform peer reviews of code changes.
• Process Initiative: Proactively identify application pain points, recommend process improvements, and suggest mitigation strategies.
• Agile Collaboration: Work closely with business stakeholders, product owners, and engineering leads within an agile environment.
• Documentation & Enablement: Maintain clear technical documentation, code tests, and help articles for new features, while providing training sessions to the support team for updates.

Who You Are

To thrive at Employment Hero, you'll need to embody The EH Way—operating with focus, agility, and an obsession to make an impact. For this intermediate full stack position, you will also bring:

Backend Experience

• 4+ years of professional backend development experience utilizing C# and .NET Core / .NET 6+.
• Proven experience building and designing RESTful APIs and services using ASP.NET Core or other .net languages.

• Solid experience with ORM frameworks, such as NHibernate, Entity Framework, or Dapper.
• Experience with Unit Testing frameworks (NUnit / XUnit) and dependency injection/IoC frameworks (Castle Windsor, Autofac, or Ninject).
• Familiarity with event-driven architectures, messaging systems, containerization (Docker), and modern CI/CD workflows.

Nice-to-Haves
