The Developer III leads the design, enhancement, operation, and maintenance of complex enterprise software applications supporting mission-critical business operations in a regulated client environment. This role translates functional requirements into secure, scalable, maintainable application components and technical designs using modern React and .NET technologies. The position provides senior-level technical leadership through peer reviews, complex defect resolution, performance optimization, mentoring, and adherence to Agile and DevSecOps delivery practices. The Developer III also builds and supports automated delivery pipelines that validate, test, package, deploy, and monitor changes across controlled application environments. Key Responsibilities Lead the design, development, enhancement, testing, deployment, and maintenance of complex full-stack software applications using current .NET platforms, C#, RESTful APIs, and React-based user interfaces. Translate functional requirements into secure technical designs, reusable components, data-access patterns, interface contracts, development estimates, and implementation plans. Assess existing application architecture, isolate and resolve complex production defects, remediate technical debt, and improve application reliability, maintainability, performance, and response times. Design, implement, and maintain CI/CD pipelines that perform pull-request validation, linting, builds, unit and integration testing, artifact packaging, controlled deployment, and release verification. Apply secure software delivery practices, including code reviews, dependency and vulnerability remediation, secrets management, access controls, audit-ready change management, and automated quality gates. Use Azure cloud services to host, deploy, monitor, troubleshoot, and scale enterprise applications, leveraging application telemetry and monitoring data to support operational reliability. Collaborate with architects, business analysts, product owners, and cross-functional delivery teams to define requirements, resolve technical blockers, and deliver high-quality solutions in Agile environments.
