About the Role

The TDD Coach will be responsible for coaching and enabling development teams to adopt test-driven development practices across backend (.NET) and frontend (React) applications. The role requires hands-on expertise in designing, implementing, and guiding teams on unit testing, mocking, and contract testing frameworks, ensuring code quality, maintainability, and continuous feedback as part of the shift-left quality transformation.

Responsibilities

  • Coach and Mentor Developers on TDD principles, unit test design patterns, and refactoring techniques across both backend (.NET) and frontend (React) codebases.
  • Establish and enforce TDD discipline within development sprints to ensure code quality and test coverage goals are met before integration.
  • Develop and standardize unit testing frameworks and templates using NUnit (for .NET) and Jest (for React), integrating them into the CI / CD pipelines.
  • Guide teams on effective mocking strategies using Moq or NSubstitute (.NET) and Axios mocking (React) to isolate dependencies and validate code behavior.
  • Enable Contract Testing adoption using suitable frameworks (e.g., Pact, WireMock) to ensure reliable integration between microservices and APIs.
  • Collaborate with Solution Architects and DevOps Engineers to embed quality gates and TDD compliance within automated build and deployment workflows.
  • Review existing unit and integration test suites, identify technical debt, and provide actionable refactoring recommendations.
  • Provide hands-on support to developers during pairing sessions to implement test-first approaches and build a quality-first engineering culture.
  • Track TDD adoption metrics (e.g., test coverage, defect leakage, build quality) and present progress to engineering leadership.
  • Continuously research and recommend emerging tools and frameworks in the testing ecosystem to enhance productivity and maintainability.

Qualifications

  • 10+ years of experience in software engineering or test automation with deep understanding of TDD and unit testing practices.
  • Strong command of C#, .NET Core, and React frameworks, including modern application architectures (microservices, RESTful APIs).
  • Proven experience in establishing TDD adoption frameworks, conducting workshops, and mentoring developers on test-first design.
  • Hands-on experience in contract testing and API mocking for service-level validation.
  • Ability to analyze and refactor legacy applications to become testable and maintainable under modern design principles.
  • Excellent communication, facilitation, and leadership skills to drive cultural and technical transformation.
  • Familiarity with DevSecOps and CI / CD practices, ensuring early and automated validation of code quality.
  • Required Skills

  • Backend (.NET)
  • .NET Framework (for legacy apps) and .NET 8 (LTS)
  • Language : C#
  • API Development : ASP.NET Core Web API
  • ORM : Entity Framework Core 8

  • Preferred Skills

  • Prior exposure to Clean Code, SOLID principles, and refactoring techniques.
  • Knowledge of cloud-native architectures (Azure / OCI) and containerization (Docker, Kubernetes).
