Hire .NET Developers For as Low as $1,290* a month

A .NET developer — often called a C# developer because C# is the primary language of the platform — builds applications on Microsoft’s development platform. The framework powers an enormous share of enterprise software, from internal line-of-business tools to public web applications and APIs. Whether you need to hire an ASP.NET developer for web work or a C# developer for desktop and services, the core language is the same. Working primarily in C# (and in VB.NET for older systems), a .NET developer can deliver:

• Web applications and APIs — ASP.NET Core MVC and Razor Pages sites, REST and gRPC services, and minimal APIs on .NET 8
• Enterprise systems — CRMs, inventory and supply-chain tools, billing engines, and reporting platforms
• Data-driven software — ADO.NET and Entity Framework Core data layers against SQL Server, with schema design and query tuning
• Desktop applications — WinForms and WPF tools that many businesses still run daily
• Cloud services — Azure App Service deployments, Azure Functions, and containerized workloads

The platform’s strength is longevity: Microsoft has maintained and improved .NET for over two decades, which is why so many revenue-critical systems run on it. That longevity is also why demand splits into two distinct needs — engineers who build new services on modern .NET, and engineers who keep mature ASP.NET applications healthy. We place both.

Enterprise .NET work punishes discontinuity. A freelancer who rotates off your project takes context about your domain logic, your data model, and your deployment quirks with them. An agency gives you whoever is available this sprint, billed by the hour, with your priorities queued behind other clients.

When you hire a .NET developer through GlobalEmployees, you get one vetted engineer who works only on your codebase, every day, as a dedicated full-time employee. You assign the work, run the standups, and review the code; we handle recruitment, payroll, HR, the office, and the workstation. The developer works your business hours with full overlap — not a thin slice of shared time — and the engagement runs month to month with no long-term contract.

Over 12+ years and 950+ placements, this dedicated model has consistently beaten project-based alternatives for exactly the kind of long-lived systems .NET powers. Our breakdown of freelancers versus dedicated remote developers covers the trade-offs in detail, and our pillar page on hiring software developers explains how the model works across every stack.

“Knows .NET” covers twenty years of framework history, so precise vetting matters. When we screen candidates for our pool of 2,800+ pre-vetted professionals, we test for:

• C# fundamentals — LINQ, async/await, generics, dependency injection, and clean object-oriented design
• ASP.NET Core — middleware, authentication and authorization, Web API design, and Razor Pages or MVC
• Data access — Entity Framework Core, Dapper, ADO.NET, and practical SQL Server performance tuning
• Front-end pairing — Blazor, or React/Angular front ends consuming .NET APIs
• Testing — xUnit/NUnit, integration testing, and testable architecture
• Cloud and DevOps — Azure services, Docker, and CI/CD with Azure DevOps or GitHub Actions
• Legacy fluency — ASP.NET MVC 5, Web Forms, VB.NET, and WCF for teams maintaining established systems

Certifications such as Microsoft Certified: Azure Developer Associate are a useful signal, but we weight demonstrated project work more heavily — and you verify everything yourself through unlimited free interviews before hiring.

Not every company is on .NET 8, and pretending otherwise is how hiring goes wrong. We shortlist against your real stack:

• Hire VB.NET developers to keep revenue-critical Web Forms and WinForms systems stable, patched, and quietly improving
• Hire ADO.NET developers for data-heavy applications where hand-tuned data access outperforms an ORM
• Hire ASP.NET programmers for MVC applications that need steady feature work and security updates
• Hire .NET Core / .NET 8 developers for greenfield APIs, microservices, and cloud-native builds
• Migration specialists who move legacy ASP.NET and VB.NET codebases to modern .NET incrementally, without a risky big-bang rewrite

Tell us your framework versions, database, and hosting setup, and the resumes you receive within 48 hours will reflect them. If you are choosing between platforms for a new build, our comparison of .NET versus Java for enterprise development is worth a read — and if you land on the JVM side, you can just as easily hire a Java developer through the same process.

Through GlobalEmployees, you can hire a .NET developer for as low as $1,290 per month, all-inclusive. In the US, a mid-level .NET developer typically earns $100,000–$130,000 a year plus benefits, payroll taxes, recruiting fees, and office overhead — roughly $8,500–$11,000 a month before you write a single line of code. Senior engineers and architects cost more still.

Our flat monthly fee includes:

• The developer’s full salary
• Payroll, taxes, and employment compliance in India
• HR management and statutory benefits
• A fully equipped workstation and professional office space
• IT support and secure, monitored infrastructure
• A dedicated account manager for your engagement

Rates rise with seniority — a ten-year veteran costs more than the entry rate — but the invoice is always one predictable monthly figure with no hidden extras, no license pass-throughs, and no long-term contract. Most clients report savings of well over half compared with an equivalent local hire.

From requirement to working developer in as little as a week:

• Share your requirement — framework versions, database, cloud setup, seniority, and working hours
• Get matched resumes within 48 hours — drawn from 2,800+ pre-vetted candidates and screened against your stack
• Interview for free, without limits — technical screens, take-home tasks, panel rounds, live C# exercises
• Select your developer — you choose; we never assign a resource to you
• Start work — we complete onboarding, equipment, payroll, and HR while your developer joins your repos, boards, and standups

NDAs and IP assignment are signed before day one, and your developer works your hours from our managed office. The full process is laid out on our how it works page.

The clients who get the most from a dedicated .NET hire tend to look like this:

• Companies running mature ASP.NET systems — a product or internal platform built years ago that still drives revenue and needs a committed maintainer
• Software product businesses adding a full-time engineer to an existing .NET team without a six-month local search
• Microsoft-stack consultancies expanding delivery capacity while protecting margins
• Enterprises mid-migration — moving from Web Forms or WCF to .NET 8 and Azure, a multi-quarter effort that suits a dedicated engineer far better than billable hours
• Teams pairing back end and front end — many clients combine a .NET hire with a front-end developer or a full stack developer to ship complete features

Whatever the shape, the constant is a full-time engineer at a fraction of local cost, with zero employment administration on your side.

The practical question behind any hire is what ships in the first six months. Based on real engagements, here is what a dedicated .NET developer typically delivers for our clients:

• Business applications — CRMs, quoting engines, scheduling systems, and the internal tools that run operations, built as ASP.NET Core web apps against SQL Server
• Customer-facing portals — secure account areas, document exchange, order tracking, and self-service features bolted onto existing systems
• APIs and integrations — REST services that connect your product to payment providers, ERPs, logistics platforms, and partner systems, with authentication and rate limiting done properly
• Reporting and data layers — consolidated dashboards over scattered databases, scheduled jobs, and exports that replace hours of manual spreadsheet work
• Modernization milestones — a Web Forms module rebuilt in Razor Pages, a WCF service replaced with a minimal API, a deployment pipeline that turns release day from an event into a non-event

The pattern across all of these is steady, compounding progress. Project-based vendors optimize for the deliverable in the contract; a dedicated engineer optimizes for the system, because they will still be working in it next quarter. That difference shows up in the unglamorous work that never makes it into an agency statement of work — test coverage, logging, dependency updates, documentation — and it is precisely that work that keeps a .NET application cheap to change for years.

Because the engagement is month to month, you can sequence ambitions realistically: stabilize first, then integrate, then modernize. Clients who reach the end of that arc often keep the same developer building new product — the context they have accumulated by then is worth more than any specification document.

For 12+ years we have specialized in one thing: dedicated remote professionals in India for US and international companies. What that means in practice:

• 2,800+ pre-vetted professionals — screened technically and background-checked before you see a resume
• 950+ successful placements — including long-running .NET engagements measured in years, not sprints
• 48-hour matching and free unlimited interviews, so your bar stays your bar
• Your time zone, your tools — full-overlap working hours, daily communication in Slack, Teams, or whatever you run
• NDA and data security — signed agreements, monitored office infrastructure, and access controls you define
• No long-term contracts, free replacement, and a 100% money-back guarantee

You get the productivity of an in-house engineer and the simplicity of a single monthly invoice. We handle everything in between.
