Dear Hiring Manager, I am excited to apply for the Software Engineer position at your organization. With over 13 years of experience in software engineering, including 6 years in engineering management, I bring a combination of deep technical expertise and proven leadership in delivering high-quality, scalable software solutions. My background spans .NET and cloud-native application development, with hands-on experience designing and deploying distributed systems on AWS using ECS Fargate, RDS, ALB, Route 53, and Terraform. I’ve architected and containerized microservices leveraging ASP.NET Core, gRPC, RabbitMQ, and Redis, applying design patterns such as Specification, Strategy, and Composite to ensure flexibility and maintainability. One of my recent projects involved building a microservices-based eShop with a YARP API Gateway, RabbitMQ + MassTransit for asynchronous messaging, and multiple data stores including PostgreSQL, SQL Server, Marten, Redis, and SQLite. The solution was fully containerized with Docker and deployed with modern CI/CD and cloud practices, supporting both web and mobile clients. Beyond coding, I’m passionate about engineering excellence — mentoring teams, improving software design practices, and fostering DevOps culture to streamline delivery and reliability. I’m confident that this combination of hands-on technical ability and architectural thinking aligns well with the goals of your organization I would welcome the opportunity to bring my experience and problem-solving mindset to your engineering team and contribute to building impactful software products. Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to the opportunity to discuss how I can contribute to your success. Warm regards, Oluwatobi Akinseye
