Development Team Leader (.NET) - Hands-On
Melbourne CBD | Permanent | Hybrid (on-site with WFH flexibility)
Lead a small, high-performing development team delivering enterprise solutions across the Microsoft .NET stack. This is a genuinely hands-on leadership role — you'll shape architecture, mentor developers, and stay close to the code, all while driving integration across ERP, cloud and enterprise systems.
What you'll do
Lead and mentor a small development team across the full project lifecycle — planning, design, development and testing.
Own high-level technical architecture and design, balancing scalability, performance, security and maintainability.
Drive integration design across Dynamics 365 ERP, enterprise systems and cloud platforms.
Set the technical direction — evaluating new technologies, frameworks and tools, and championing best practice.
Partner with architects, product owners and business stakeholders to translate complex needs into robust technical solutions.
Build team capability through coaching, recruitment input and vendor management.
What you'll bring




10+ years' hands-on experience as a .NET Application Architect, Development Manager or similar — still coding, still leading from the front.
Deep expertise in C#, .NET Framework/.NET Core, ASP.NET, Web API, and related Microsoft technologies (Blazor, WPF, Xamarin/.NET MAUI a plus).
Solid track record integrating enterprise systems, ideally including D365 Finance & Operations.
Solid grounding in Azure cloud services, DevOps and CI/CD.
Experience with SOAP/RESTful APIs, SQL Server, and Agile/Scrum delivery.
Excellent communicator, comfortable translating technical concepts for non-technical stakeholders.
Tertiary qualification in Computer Science or Information Systems.
Why apply
A rare blend of leadership and hands-on technical work — you won't be stuck in meetings all day.
Meaningful influence over enterprise architecture and integration strategy.
Melbourne CBD base with genuine hybrid flexibility.
