Hiring guide

What to look for in a .NET freelancer

A strong .NET developer should understand the whole platform, not just a single project template. Look for:

  • Command of the .NET ecosystem: ASP.NET Core, Entity Framework, and the modern minimal API style.
  • Cloud deployment experience, especially Azure, with containers and CI/CD pipelines.
  • Clean architecture instincts: clear layers, dependency injection, and testable code.
  • Performance awareness: async patterns, caching, and profiling slow endpoints.
  • A record of shipped apps, with real users and ongoing maintenance behind them.

Ask how a candidate structures a new .NET solution from scratch. Their answer reveals whether they think about architecture or just wire up controllers.
