How to Apply for Senior Technical Lead

at Eurofins

🏢 About Eurofins

Eurofins is a global leader in analytical testing services, operating in over 900 laboratories across 62 countries. What makes Eurofins unique is its mission-driven focus on promoting safer, healthier, and more sustainable environments through scientific testing—this means your technical work directly contributes to public health and environmental protection. Working here offers the chance to apply enterprise .NET development skills to meaningful, large-scale projects with global impact.

About This Role

As a Senior Technical Lead at Eurofins India, you'll be responsible for hands-on design and development of complex .NET applications while owning technical delivery for specific domains. This role is impactful because you'll guide teams through critical modernization initiatives (like legacy-to-modern transitions) and ensure solutions meet rigorous performance, scalability, and security standards for analytical testing systems used worldwide.

💡 A Day in the Life

A typical day involves hands-on coding and design reviews for .NET applications, collaborating with teams on modernization roadmaps, and troubleshooting performance or integration issues in analytical testing systems. You'll split time between technical implementation, mentoring developers on best practices, and coordinating with stakeholders to ensure solutions meet both technical requirements and Eurofins' mission-critical standards.

🎯 Who Eurofins Is Looking For

  • Has 12–15 years of hands-on .NET experience with specific expertise in C#, .NET Framework/Core, WPF, XAML, MVVM, and Angular—not just general software development experience
  • Demonstrates proven experience leading modernization initiatives, particularly legacy system transitions, with concrete examples of technical designs and implementations
  • Possesses deep understanding of enterprise application development patterns, including SOLID principles, design patterns, and backend integrations (REST APIs, WCF, SQL Server)
  • Shows evidence of successfully mentoring engineering teams while managing stakeholders in complex technical environments

📝 Tips for Applying to Eurofins

1

Quantify your 12–15 years of experience with specific metrics: number of applications delivered, team sizes led, performance improvements achieved in .NET systems

2

Highlight any experience with analytical, scientific, or testing systems—even if tangential—since Eurofins' domain is specialized

3

Prepare concrete examples of legacy-to-modern transitions you've led, emphasizing technical decisions around .NET Framework to .NET Core migrations

4

Demonstrate understanding of both frontend (WPF/XAML/MVVM/Angular) and backend (REST APIs/WCF/SQL Server) requirements—avoid appearing specialized in only one area

5

Research Eurofins' specific technical challenges by reviewing their public case studies on laboratory information management systems (LIMS) or analytical platforms

✉️ What to Emphasize in Your Cover Letter

["Connect your .NET modernization experience directly to Eurofins' need for legacy system transitions in their analytical testing platforms", 'Explain how your technical leadership in complex application development aligns with ensuring performance, scalability, and security for global testing systems', "Demonstrate understanding of Eurofins' mission by linking your technical skills to their impact on safer, healthier environments", "Provide a specific example of how you've mentored teams while maintaining hands-on development—crucial for this lead role"]
