How to Apply for .Net Engineer

at Eurofins

๐Ÿข About Eurofins

Eurofins is a global leader in analytical testing, dedicated to promoting safer, healthier, and more sustainable environments. With a strong presence in BioPharma Product Testing, you'll contribute to scientific research and quality assurance that directly impacts public health.

About This Role

As a .Net Engineer, you will develop and maintain Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS) for the BioPharma division, enabling efficient data management for scientific research. You'll collaborate with global teams to build next-gen applications that streamline documentation and support critical lab operations.

๐Ÿ’ก A Day in the Life

You'll start your day with a stand-up meeting with your global team, discussing progress on LIMS features. Then, you might code a new API endpoint in .NET Core, followed by debugging a performance issue in a React component (if Angular is used). After lunch, you'll review a colleague's pull request and update Azure DevOps boards, ending the day with research on new Azure services to optimize deployments.

๐ŸŽฏ Who Eurofins Is Looking For

  • Experienced in building end-to-end web applications using .NET, C#, ASP.NET MVC, Web API, .NET Core, and Entity Framework Core with 5-8 years of hands-on development.
  • Proficient in Angular 15+ and modern front-end technologies (JavaScript, TypeScript, jQuery, HTML5, CSS3) to craft responsive, user-friendly interfaces.
  • Strong database skills with MSSQL, including writing complex queries and using Dapper for efficient data access.
  • Familiar with Agile/SCRUM, version control (TFS, GIT), and Azure development, with a solid grasp of OOP, SOLID principles, and design patterns.

๐Ÿ“ Tips for Applying to Eurofins

1

Highlight any experience with Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS) or scientific/healthcare software in your resume and cover letter.

2

Showcase your Angular 15+ projects explicitly, as the role emphasizes modern front-end skills alongside back-end .NET expertise.

3

Quantify achievements in performance optimization or code quality improvements (e.g., reduced load time by X%, increased test coverage by Y%).

4

Mention specific Azure services you've used (e.g., Azure DevOps, App Services) to align with the 'familiarity with Azure development' requirement.

5

Tailor your resume to include keywords like 'Entity Framework Core', 'Dapper', 'TFS', 'GIT', and 'Agile/SCRUM' to pass ATS filters.

โœ‰๏ธ What to Emphasize in Your Cover Letter

['Emphasize your passion for building software that supports scientific research and quality assurance in a regulated environment.', 'Describe a specific project where you improved system performance or code quality using .NET Core and Angular.', 'Mention your experience working in global, cross-functional teams and your ability to collaborate across time zones.', "Express interest in Eurofins' mission of promoting safer, healthier environments and how your skills can contribute to their BioPharma Product Testing division."]

โš ๏ธ Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't apply with a generic resume lacking specific .NET Core and Angular 15+ projects; tailor it to this role.
  • Avoid vague descriptions of Agile experienceโ€”mention specific ceremonies and your role in sprints.
  • Don't ignore the 'familiarity with Azure development' requirement; even basic experience should be highlighted.
