}.NET teams trusted by enterprises, scale-ups, and Fortune 500s
Previously founded VinSolutions ($150M+ exit) and Stackify
I started writing .NET with the 1.0 beta in 2001.
I started my career as a .NET developer. Twenty-plus years in, I have shipped enterprise .NET systems, built and sold two software companies on the Microsoft stack, and run a .NET developer tools company called Stackify whose product instrumented .NET applications in production for thousands of engineering teams.
At Full Scale we have hired hundreds of .NET engineers in the Philippines over the years. We test them on real architecture problems, not syntax. We have built dedicated .NET development teams for fast growing SaaS companies and for AMC Theatres. If you are serious about hiring offshore .NET developers who can actually build things, you are in the right place.
AI-powered .NET engineers, trained on Product Driven principles.
Most companies adopting AI are getting more code, not better code. The slop volume goes up. The product gets worse. Engineers who only know how to type faster are not the answer.
Full Scale .NET developers are trained on something different: the Product Driven approach from Matt's book, combined with the full modern AI toolkit (GitHub Copilot, Claude, Cursor). They think first, type second, and use AI for the parts where judgment doesn't add value. That combination is rare, and it is what enterprise .NET teams should actually be hiring for in 2026.
Product Driven engineering
Our engineers are trained on the five pillars from Matt's book: Vision, Focus, Clarity, Ownership, and Courage. The result is developers who push back on bad product decisions, ask whether a ticket should exist before writing it, and own the outcome of what ships. They are not order takers.
Read Product Driven, the bookAI as a thinking partner
Every .NET engineer on our bench works with GitHub Copilot, Claude, and Cursor every day. They use AI to explore options, scaffold the boring parts, generate test suites, and review their own pull requests before a human ever sees them. Judgment stays with the engineer. The grunt work moves to the machine.
AI without product thinking is an AI slop machine. Product thinking without AI leaves productivity on the table. The developers I want on my team have both, and that is who we hire and train at Full Scale.
The .NET team behind AMC Theatres.
Dedicated .NET developers, starting at $35 an hour.
That rate is fully loaded. Senior .NET engineer in the Philippines, working full-time on your project, with payroll, benefits, HR, and equipment all handled by Full Scale. The same role hired locally in the US costs $150K to $195K a year. The math is what drives most of our clients to call.
- Full-time, dedicated .NET engineer
- Pre-vetted by senior .NET reviewers
- Works your hours, your tools, your codebase
- Payroll, HR, equipment, benefits handled by us
- US-based account manager you can escalate to
- 30-day replacement guarantee if it isn't a fit
Full Scale has made the Inc. 5000 three years in a row and is Great Place to Work certified. We have been doing this since 2018. Pricing isn't the only reason clients stay, but it's the easiest reason to call.
The reason offshore .NET works here.
English-fluent by default
The Philippines is the third-largest English-speaking country in the world. Standups, code reviews, and customer calls work the way they do with any US team member.
Real time-zone overlap
Most of our .NET engineers work US business hours with 4-8 hours of real-time overlap with East and West Coast teams. No async-only handoffs.
Deep engineering talent pool
Cebu and Manila produce tens of thousands of CS and IT graduates a year. The country has been the Microsoft stack's offshore home for two decades.
Cultural alignment with US teams
Filipino engineers grow up on US business norms, US TV, and US tech culture. The result is teams that integrate fast, not teams you have to manage around.
Writing C# is not the same as knowing .NET.
Anyone who passed a Microsoft certification can write C#. Building an enterprise .NET system that holds up in production requires a different bench entirely. When you outsource .NET development or hire offshore .NET developers, this is the gap that decides whether the project ships. Here is what we test for, and what most offshore staffing companies skip.
Architecture knowledge, not just syntax
Junior developers ship features. Senior .NET engineers reason about Clean Architecture, dependency injection, CQRS, and when a pattern actually earns its complexity.
EF Core that doesn't melt your database
We test for the N+1 query problem, change tracking gotchas, and when to drop into Dapper or raw SQL. Bad EF code is the single most common cause of .NET performance issues we see.
Azure beyond "deploy to App Service"
Real Azure expertise covers Service Bus, Functions, managed identity, Key Vault, App Insights, AKS. Engineers who can read a deployment failure and know where to look in Azure Monitor.
Legacy migration without the breakage
Moving .NET Framework 4.x to .NET 10 is more than a project file edit. We have done full migrations for production systems with millions of users. We know where the landmines are.
Security and identity done right
ASP.NET Core auth, OAuth flows, JWT validation, OWASP basics, secrets management. Not a checklist exercise. Engineers who understand the attack surface of a real .NET application.
Production debugging skills
A senior .NET engineer should be able to read a memory dump, profile a hot path, and walk through a thread block diagram. Most offshore developers have never touched these tools.
Hire dedicated .NET developers for the work that actually matters.
Most .NET hiring conversations skip past the actual project. What kind of .NET work do you need done? Greenfield application development, an Azure migration, a legacy modernization, a performance fix that's been open for six months? Our developers ship across all of it. Here are the .NET development services we get hired for most often.
Custom .NET application development
Greenfield builds on modern .NET 8 or .NET 10 using Clean Architecture, MediatR, EF Core, and FluentValidation. We start with a real domain model, not a CRUD scaffold. The result is a codebase that survives the first 18 months without a rewrite.
Read our .NET development guideEnterprise .NET development
Multi-tenant SaaS, role-based access, audit logging, regulatory reporting. The unglamorous stuff that enterprise software lives or dies on. We staffed the team behind enterprise systems at AMC Theatres and we know what production load looks like.
.NET API development & system integration
REST APIs with OpenAPI contracts, gRPC for internal services, contract testing in CI. Third-party integrations done with circuit breakers (Polly), proper retry logic, and idempotency keys. The kind of API layer your downstream consumers don't curse at.
Azure cloud application development
Cloud-native .NET on App Service, Functions, AKS, Service Bus, and Cosmos DB. Bicep for infrastructure, managed identity for auth, App Insights for observability. The full Azure stack, not just "we deployed it to App Service."
Legacy .NET modernization
Production .NET Framework 4.x to .NET 8 or .NET 10 migrations without downtime. We know which third-party libraries break, where WCF and System.Web sneak in, and how to stage the cutover so business doesn't stop. We've done this for systems with millions of users.
Read about .NET Core vs .NET Framework.NET performance & debugging
BenchmarkDotNet for hot-path profiling, dotMemory for leaks, dotTrace for CPU bottlenecks, production memory dump analysis when things get weird. The skills most offshore .NET shops have never developed. Hire us when your application is slow and nobody knows why.
Eight .NET specializations, one staffing partner.
Most .NET teams need more than one role. Hire dedicated C# developers, senior ASP.NET engineers, Azure cloud specialists, and .NET DevOps from a single vetted bench. Mix and match seniorities as the project requires.
Backend .NET Engineers
Senior backend devs who build the API layer, business logic, and data access. Comfortable in ASP.NET Core, minimal APIs, MediatR, EF Core, and Dapper.
Full-Stack .NET Developers
End-to-end engineers who pair .NET on the backend with React, Angular, or Blazor on the front. Ship features from the database to the UI without handoffs.
ASP.NET API Engineers
Specialists who design REST and gRPC APIs, document with OpenAPI, and ship versioned, well-tested endpoints. Used to working inside hexagonal or clean architecture.
Azure Cloud Engineers
Microsoft-certified Azure developers who own App Service, Functions, Service Bus, AKS, Key Vault, and App Insights end-to-end. They write the Bicep too.
.NET DevOps Engineers
CI/CD on Azure DevOps or GitHub Actions, containerization, infrastructure as code, observability. They make .NET releases boring in the good way.
Performance & Security Engineers
BenchmarkDotNet, dotMemory, dotTrace, threading model audits, OWASP reviews, identity and secrets hardening. The people you call when production gets weird.
Xamarin / .NET MAUI Developers
Cross-platform mobile builds on .NET MAUI plus legacy Xamarin maintenance. iOS, Android, and Windows from a single codebase.
.NET QA & SDET
Automation engineers fluent in xUnit, NUnit, SpecFlow, Playwright, and Selenium against ASP.NET Core services. They write the test pyramid you wish you had.
.NET expertise tuned to your industry.
As a .NET development company that has been around for over a decade, we have placed dedicated .NET developers into nearly every industry that runs Microsoft. Domain knowledge cuts onboarding time in half, so we match developers to projects where they have already shipped real code.
Media & Entertainment
We staffed the .NET team behind AMC Theatres, where the surface area is huge: ticketing, payments, loyalty, queueing, mobile. Media and entertainment .NET work is high-traffic, customer-facing, and unforgiving of bad releases.
From .NET 10 minimal APIs to .NET Framework 4.8 migrations.
Whether you want to hire C# developers for a greenfield ASP.NET Core build, hire Azure .NET developers for a cloud migration, or outsource .NET development on a legacy .NET Framework system, the bench covers every layer of the Microsoft developer stack. Pick what you need. We will match a .NET programmer fluent in it.
Hire dedicated .NET developers, two ways.
Most clients start with a single dedicated .NET developer and grow into a full team. Either way, you get full-time engineers who sit on your standups, work your hours, and ship code against your roadmap. Not freelancers, not shared resources, not a project shop.
Dedicated developer
Full-time, exclusive, sits on your standups.
- Full-time .NET engineer assigned only to your project
- Works your hours, your tools, your codebase
- Joins your standups, reports to your tech lead
- We handle payroll, HR, equipment, retention
- Replace within 30 days if it isn't a fit
