.NET Developer — Ganeshguri, Guwahati
A software development team in Ganeshguri, Guwahati, is hiring a full-time, on-site .NET Developer with a pay rate up to ₹74,500 per month. If you've been scanning .NET developer job openings in Guwahati and want something close to home rather than a remote posting, this one's worth a closer look. The team builds and maintains business applications for clients across a handful of industries, so the work doesn't sit idle on a single product for years at a stretch.
The stack you'll actually use
C# and ASP.NET Core are the backbone here, with Entity Framework handling most of the data access layer and SQL Server on the backend. Git is how the team manages source control day-to-day, and debugging skills matter as much as writing new code, since a good chunk of the work involves figuring out why something that used to work suddenly doesn't.
Nothing on that list is exotic. What tends to separate strong candidates isn't knowing a rare tool; it's how comfortable someone is moving between all five without needing a refresher each time they switch context. A developer who can write a clean Entity Framework query one hour and step through a SQL Server execution plan the next, without losing momentum, will find this role a natural fit.
What you'll be doing
- Designing and building software components for internal and client-facing applications, from initial spec through working code
- Sitting down with product managers early enough to nail down what a feature actually needs to do before any code gets written, and looping QA in once it's ready to be tested
- Reviewing teammates' code to catch bugs early and keep the codebase consistent, not just checking for style nits
- Troubleshooting issues that users report in production, tracing them back to root cause rather than patching symptoms
- Writing and maintaining unit tests alongside new features so regressions get caught before they reach QA
- Documenting API endpoints and internal tooling so the next developer touching that code isn't starting from scratch
That last testing item isn't explicitly called out in every posting like this one, but in practice it's part of the job the moment you're shipping code that other people depend on. A recent example from the team: a reporting module that quietly started timing out for one client after a data volume spike, and it took a developer tracing through query execution plans, not guesswork, to find the actual bottleneck.
Who fits this role
A bachelor's degree is the baseline, typically in computer science, information technology, or a related field. What matters more in practice is whether the degree came with real, hands-on exposure to the tools this role actually uses. A candidate who spent their final year building something in ASP.NET Core, even a small project, tends to interview better than one whose only C# exposure was a single semester course years ago.
The listing calls for 36 months of relevant experience. That's enough time to have shipped a few real features end-to-end and to have broken something in production at least once, which, frankly, teaches more than any tutorial does.
Beyond the core stack, a few things count as a plus rather than a requirement: exposure to Azure or another cloud platform for deployment, familiarity with xUnit or NUnit for structured testing, some CI/CD pipeline experience, and comfort working in an Agile or Scrum team rhythm. None of these are dealbreakers on their own. A candidate strong on the core stack but light on cloud exposure will still get a fair look, since that part tends to be picked up quickly once someone is already comfortable with the rest of the ecosystem. Prior experience with SQL Server performance tuning is uncommon among applicants at this level, but it's immediately noticeable when it appears on a resume.
Day to day on the team
The role is on-site in Ganeshguri, and sprints follow a fairly standard rhythm of planning, build, and review. Release weeks run a bit heavier than the rest of the cycle, with more code review and last-minute bug triage than usual, and that's just the nature of shipping software on a schedule. Standups happen most mornings, short and focused on blockers rather than status updates for their own sake, and the team leans on Git pull requests for most of its internal discussion around code changes. Naukri Mitra has listed this role directly with the hiring team, so applications go straight into their pipeline rather than through a third-party recruiter.
New developers usually pair with a senior engineer for the first few weeks before taking on features solo. It's less a formal onboarding program and more a practical way to get someone comfortable with the codebase's quirks before they're debugging it alone at nine in the evening during a release crunch.
Benefits
- Health insurance
- Paid time off
- Provident fund contributions
- Relocation assistance for candidates moving to Guwahati
- Accommodation support during the initial transition period
Before you apply
Salary for this position runs up to ₹74,500 per month, in line with what other .NET developer roles in Guwahati are paying right now for someone with a few years of hands-on experience. Since the role is fully on-site in Ganeshguri, candidates should be based in or genuinely ready to relocate to Guwahati; this listing won't convert to remote later. Bring a couple of code samples or a GitHub link to the first conversation if you have one, since it tends to move things along faster than describing past projects from memory.
The interview process itself is short by design: a first call to walk through experience and the code samples mentioned above, followed by a practical exercise closer to the kind of debugging work described earlier, and a final conversation with the hiring manager. Most candidates hear back within a week of that last round. Anyone relocating from outside Assam should factor in sufficient lead time to secure housing, since accommodation support kicks in once an offer is accepted rather than during the interview stage.
