• Proven ability to improve developer productivity by strengthening build reliability, test pipelines, and automation.

Typical Day in the Role

• Design, develop, implement, test, and maintain business and computer applications software or specialized utility programs.
• Work on modernization of services, code base, and infrastructure, focusing on tasks related to business logic.
• Specific tasks include migrating project definitions to new standards, cleaning up source code warnings, upgrading NuGet packages, and modernizing old services to use updated authentication and authorization methods.
• Additional work may involve build pipeline migrations and infrastructure-level improvements, with a strong emphasis on C# and cloud experience, covering both.NET Framework and .NET Core.
• Gather and analyze system requirements, document specifications, and develop software solutions to meet client needs.
• Analyze and review enhancement requests and specifications.
• Implement system software and customize to client requirements.
• Prepare detailed software specifications and test plans.
• Code new programs to client’s specifications and create test data for testing.
• Modify existing programs to new standards and conduct unit testing of developed programs.
• Create migration packages for system testing, user testing, and implementation.
• Provide quality assurance reviews.
• Perform post-implementation validation of software and resolve any bugs found during testing.

Candidate Requirements

• Must have strong technical skills in C#,.NET, cloud services, and Infrastructure as Code.
• Excessive job hopping (e.g., changing jobs every month over the past two years) is considered a red flag.
• Prior experience with large-scale enterprise systems is preferred.

Best vs. Average Candidate

• Experience splitting or migrating workloads to new repositories or isolated environments to reduce operational overhead.
• Exposure to large or legacy enterprise systems undergoing modernization.
• Experience improving test tooling or developer experience beyond pure feature delivery.
