Role Summary

Avanade India’s Applications & Engineering practice is looking for an Application Technical Lead to own the technical delivery of .NET applications for our clients. This is a hands-on role — the person in it designs the solution, writes code alongside the team, reviews what others produce, and is accountable for what ships.

You will lead a team of four to five engineers through build and release, own the engineering standards and the Azure DevOps pipelines that enforce them, and lead modernisation work from .NET Framework to modern .NET. We also expect you to be fluent with LLM-based development tools such as GitHub Copilot and Claude Code — using them to raise the team’s productivity and code quality, and setting sensible rules for how they are used on client work.

Key Responsibilities

• Own end-to-end technical delivery of .NET applications — technical design, build, code quality, testing, release and production readiness.

• Lead a team of four to five engineers: allocating work, reviewing code and designs, unblocking the team and holding the quality of what is delivered.

• Design and develop applications hands-on in C# and .NET — ASP.NET Core, Web API, microservices and service integrations.

• Lead migration and modernisation of legacy .NET Framework applications to .NET Core / modern .NET — assessment, dependency and package analysis, migration approach, incremental cutover and regression testing.

• Apply LLM-based development tools (GitHub Copilot, Claude Code or equivalent) across the lifecycle — code generation, refactoring, test generation, legacy code comprehension and documentation — and set the team’s standards for their safe and effective use on client code.

• Build and run CI/CD pipelines in Azure DevOps — multi-stage YAML, build and release gates, approvals, artifact and environment management, automated testing and continuous delivery to higher environments.

• Define and enforce engineering standards: branching strategy, pull request and code review discipline, unit and integration test coverage, static analysis and security scanning.

• Design and optimise data access and database interaction — SQL Server or Azure SQL, Entity Framework Core, query tuning and caching.

• Work with cloud and platform teams on deployment architecture — Azure App Service, Functions, containers and AKS, Key Vault, configuration and secrets.

• Troubleshoot and resolve performance, reliability and production issues, and drive root-cause fixes rather than workarounds.

• Run technical design discussions with architects, business analysts and client technical stakeholders, and explain and defend design decisions.

• Plan and estimate work with the project manager — breakdown, sizing, sprint planning and realistic commitments — and report technical progress and risk.

• Mentor and uplift engineers on .NET, engineering practice and AI-assisted development, and support hiring and technical interviews.

• Contribute reusable components, templates, pipeline accelerators and reference implementations to the practice IP library.

• Support presales where needed — technical approach, effort estimation and client technical discussions.

What you will do: 

• Desarrollar proyectos de IA enfocado al diseño 3D abordando tareas desde la conceptualización hasta la implementación y despliegue. 

• Diseñar e implementar modelos y soluciones automatizadas de IA utilizando Python y herramientas relacionadas. 

• Desarrollar sistemas de monitorización para controla el degradamiento de los modelos generados. 

• Creación de pipelines para el despliegue de modelos sobre Azure y automatizar el reentrenamiento de los mismos. 

• Trabajar con herramientas de diseño 3D, tanto paramétricas cómo no paramétricas como Freecad y Blender. 

• Aplicar algoritmos matemáticos en los sistemas de IA. 

• Evaluar y comparar modelos de inteligencia artificial. 

• Mantenerse actualizado sobre las últimas tendencias en IA y tecnologías Microsoft para integrar las mejores prácticas en los proyectos. 

Job description

We are looking for a motivated intern who is curious about cloud engineering, Infrastructure as Code, and automation. You should enjoy turning technical ideas into practical, maintainable solutions and be eager to learn from experienced cloud professionals.

Your main assignment will be to create a practical library of reusable Terraform modules for Azure. You will develop individual resource modules and combine them into larger, composable solutions, such as virtual networks with their related resources.

Beyond the modules themselves, you will build reusable GitHub Actions workflows, help establish well-organized repositories, and create a GitHub Copilot instruction template. Together, these assets will give the team a consistent foundation for future Azure deployments for our clients.

The internship will follow a sprint-based approach using Azure DevOps. At the start of each sprint, you will receive a clearly defined set of tasks and priorities. Regular check-ins, sprint reviews, and feedback will help you demonstrate results, adjust your approach, and steadily build your skills. This process will provide a transparent framework for tracking progress and evaluating your development throughout the internship.

You will work in a modern engineering environment using Azure DevOps for sprint planning, GitHub for code management, GitHub Actions for deployments, Terraform, GitHub Copilot, and Microsoft Azure. Guidance and regular feedback will be provided throughout the internship; prior experience with any of these tools is an advantage, but a strong willingness to learn is equally important.

Come join us

At Avanade, you will become part of a welcoming, collaborative community where people share knowledge, challenge ideas, and support one another. Our global perspective and strong connection to the Microsoft ecosystem create an environment where you can learn from diverse experiences, build meaningful relationships, and see how innovation takes shape in practice.

From your first day, you will be encouraged to ask questions, contribute your perspective, and take increasing ownership as your confidence grows. With regular guidance, open feedback, and opportunities to work alongside experienced colleagues, the internship is designed to be both challenging and supportive. You will leave with a clearer view of life in consulting, valuable professional experience, and a network of people invested in your development. If you are curious, open-minded, and ready to grow, we would be pleased to welcome you to Avanade. 

What You’ll Do

• Design and build reusable Terraform modules for Azure resources in line with agreed standards and best practices.

• Combine individual modules into larger, composable solutions, such as virtual networks with related networking resources.

• Create reusable GitHub Actions workflows for validating, testing, and deploying Terraform configurations.

• Organize and maintain GitHub repositories, including their structure, branching approach, documentation, and contribution guidelines.

• Develop and refine GitHub Copilot instructions that help the team generate consistent, maintainable infrastructure code.

• Work in sprints using Azure DevOps, taking ownership of assigned tasks and using sprint reviews and feedback to demonstrate progress and support ongoing evaluation.

• Test modules and workflows, provide demos, incorporate stakeholder feedback, and continuously improve quality and usability.

• Document and demonstrate your deliverables so the team can confidently adopt it for future Azure deployments.
