You can hire a pre-vetted offshore .NET developer in about 2 weeks through Remoteria, starting from $2,800 per month for a full-time dedicated engineer. Offshore .NET developers specialize in C# and ASP.NET Core, building REST and minimal-API services, modeling data access with Entity Framework Core, deploying to Azure App Service or containers, and maintaining the internal line-of-business and back-office systems that most companies depend on. They write unit tests in xUnit or NUnit, wire up CI/CD in Azure DevOps or GitHub Actions, and ship through your normal pull request flow. They work with 4–8 hours of real-time overlap with your team, communicate fluently in written and spoken English, and typically save US businesses 60–70% compared to a local senior .NET engineer at $130,000 per year. Every candidate we shortlist has already shipped a production C# service for a US or European client, passes a take-home API challenge scored on correctness, data modeling, and code quality, and can explain async/await pitfalls and EF Core change tracking on the final interview. Onboarding begins with a codebase audit and first bug-fix PRs under close review. By week two your developer is owning features. By month two they are shaping the data layer, the CI pipeline, and the Azure deployment strategy.

What an offshore .net developer does

API & service development

  • Build REST and minimal-API endpoints in ASP.NET Core with model binding, validation, and versioning
  • Design service and repository layers with dependency injection and clean separation of concerns
  • Integrate third-party APIs, message queues, and background jobs with hosted services or Hangfire

Data access with Entity Framework

  • Model the domain in EF Core with migrations, relationships, and value conversions
  • Diagnose and fix N+1 queries, cartesian explosions, and tracking-versus-no-tracking mistakes
  • Write raw SQL or stored-procedure calls where EF is the wrong tool and profile with the query log

Azure & deployment

  • Deploy services to Azure App Service, Container Apps, or AKS with health checks and slots
  • Wire configuration and secrets through App Configuration and Key Vault, never appsettings in source
  • Build CI/CD pipelines in Azure DevOps or GitHub Actions with automated tests and staged rollouts

Enterprise & back-office systems

  • Maintain and extend legacy .NET Framework line-of-business apps and plan .NET 8 migrations
  • Build Blazor Server or WPF internal tools for operations, finance, and support teams
  • Integrate with SQL Server, identity providers, and reporting stacks the business already runs on

Testing & code review

  • Write unit tests in xUnit or NUnit with Moq or NSubstitute for behavioral coverage
  • Add integration tests against a real database using Testcontainers or the WebApplicationFactory
  • Review pull requests with a focus on async correctness, EF query cost, and exception handling

Tools and technologies

Why offshore .net developers work for US businesses

A dedicated offshore .NET developer who builds and maintains C# and ASP.NET Core systems — Web APIs, Entity Framework data layers, Azure deployments, and the back-office line-of-business apps most companies run on. At offshore rates starting from $2800/month, US companies get dedicated, full-time .net developers who join standups, commit to your repos, and integrate with your existing team — without the $117,600/year total cost of a comparable local hire.

Day-to-day scope

  • API & service development: Build REST and minimal-API endpoints in ASP.NET Core with model binding, validation, and versioning
  • Data access with Entity Framework: Model the domain in EF Core with migrations, relationships, and value conversions
  • Azure & deployment: Deploy services to Azure App Service, Container Apps, or AKS with health checks and slots

Pricing

Full-time offshore .net developers start at $2800/month. No setup fees. Includes recruitment, vetting, onboarding, and account management.

Why offshore .net developers work

The Microsoft stack is where a huge share of US business software lives — internal tools, back-office systems, and the ERP-adjacent apps that run finance, logistics, and operations — and that work is expensive to staff locally because senior C# talent is scarce and well paid. An offshore .NET developer gives you that same enterprise skill set at 60–70% less, and because .NET, Azure, and SQL Server are standardized Microsoft tooling, a developer trained anywhere in the world lands in your codebase without a translation layer.

How we vet offshore .net developers

Every .NET candidate does a take-home that builds a small ASP.NET Core API with an EF Core data layer, and we grade it on the things that actually break in production: async/await correctness, EF query cost, validation, and exception handling. On the final interview we probe change tracking, the difference between IEnumerable and IQueryable in an EF context, and how they would diagnose a deadlock in SQL Server. We only shortlist developers who have shipped a production C# service for a US or European client, not people who have only done coursework or tutorials.

  1. 1. English + skills assessment. Written and spoken English test, plus a role-specific skills evaluation tailored to .net developers.
  2. 2. Portfolio review + references. Work samples reviewed by our team, plus direct outreach to 2 prior client references.
  3. 3. Client interview. We shortlist 3 candidates. You interview your top picks on video and choose.

What makes a great offshore .net developer

A great .NET developer knows when the ORM is helping and when it is lying to you. They read the SQL EF generates instead of trusting it, they understand that most .NET performance problems are database round-trips rather than C# speed, and they write async code that does not silently block a thread-pool thread. They are also pragmatic about legacy: they can keep a .NET Framework app alive and profitable while planning the migration, rather than insisting everything be rewritten on day one.

Pricing and guarantees

A mid-level offshore .NET developer starts at $2,800 per month and a senior who can own the data layer, Azure deployment, and a migration roadmap runs closer to $5,000 — still well below the $115,000–$160,000 fully loaded cost of a US senior .NET engineer. There is one monthly rate, no recruiting fee, and a 30-day free replacement if the fit is wrong. You are paying for a full-time dedicated engineer, not a fractional or ticket-based contractor.

Process from day 0 to hire

Most .net developers onboard within 10–14 business days from the kickoff call.

  1. Day 0 — Brief

    A 15-minute kickoff where you share the role scope, tools, timezone overlap, and budget. We leave the call with enough context to start sourcing the same day.

  2. Day 1–5 — Shortlist

    Our recruiters run the five-stage vetting process and return three pre-vetted candidates with written scorecards, work samples, and async intro videos within five business days.

  3. Day 6–8 — Interview

    You interview all three candidates on back-to-back calls we help schedule. Most clients decide within 48 hours of the final interview and send the offer through us.

  4. Day 9–14 — Onboard

    We handle the contract, equipment stipend, payroll setup, and first-week shadowing so your new .net developer is productive on day one instead of day fifteen.

Frequently asked questions

Do your developers work with .NET Framework or only modern .NET?

Both. Modern .NET (Core through .NET 8) is where new work happens, and every developer in our network is current on it. But most US companies still run production .NET Framework 4.x line-of-business apps, and we match developers who have maintained those systems and, in many cases, led the migration to .NET 8. Tell us in the kickoff call whether you need someone to keep a Framework app healthy, run a migration, or build greenfield on modern .NET, and we shortlist accordingly.

How strong is your developers Entity Framework and SQL knowledge?

EF Core and SQL are screened on the take-home. Anyone can call ToList; the ones we send you know when EF has generated a bad query and how to fix it — reading the query log, splitting a cartesian explosion, choosing AsNoTracking for read paths, and dropping to raw SQL or Dapper when the ORM is the wrong tool. If your app is SQL Server heavy with stored procedures and complex reporting queries, we match a developer who has lived in that world rather than one who has only ever used EF as a black box.

Can the developer work in our Azure environment?

Yes. Most of our .NET developers deploy to Azure daily — App Service, Container Apps, or AKS — and know the surrounding services: Key Vault for secrets, App Configuration, Service Bus, Blob Storage, and Application Insights for telemetry. We match on your actual setup. If you are on AWS with .NET instead, say so in the kickoff and we shortlist developers who run ECS or Lambda with the .NET runtime rather than assuming Azure.

How much does an offshore .NET developer cost, and how fast can they start?

A full-time dedicated offshore .NET developer starts at $2,800 per month with Remoteria for a mid-level engineer, rising to around $5,000 for senior hires who can own the data layer, Azure architecture, and a migration roadmap. US senior .NET developers cost $115,000–$160,000 per year fully loaded, so you typically save 60–70%. Onboarding runs 10–14 business days: we shortlist 3 vetted candidates within a week, you run the final interview, and your developer is pushing their first PR by day 10 of kickoff.

Do your developers do Blazor and full-stack .NET, or only backend?

We have both. Many .NET developers are comfortable end to end — building a Blazor Server or WPF internal tool on top of the API they wrote — and that is common for back-office and operations software. Others are pure backend specialists who prefer to hand a clean Web API to a separate frontend team. Tell us which shape you need. If you want a developer who can own a full-stack internal app in the Microsoft stack we screen for the Blazor and Razor experience; if you have a React frontend already we match a backend-focused engineer.
