  • Jump into the full development lifecycle, from gathering requirements to designing and owning major components.
  • Build a deep understanding of how your work impacts our customers, making smart trade-offs based on business needs and mentoring others to do the same.
  • Proactively tackle our most complex problems, creating sustainable solutions that will keep us moving forward.
  • Evolve our architecture to handle future needs for scaling, performance, security, and reliability.
  • Continuously find ways to improve our team's processes.
  • Take full ownership of your work and your team's quality, significantly upgrading our test automation strategies.
  • Ensure every phase of development is well-documented and guide others in doing the same.


What experience and skills we need you to have:
  • 10+ years of related experience and a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science.
  • Experience and in-depth knowledge of .NET, .NET MVC, and ORMs, along with Relational Databases, Docker/Kubernetes, Microservices, REST APIs, and GitHub Actions
  • Recent experience with C#, Postgres, and React
  • Experience in leveraging AI/ML tools to boost development efficiency.
  • Experience with Agile software development
  • Ability to collaborate with and communicate effectively with various teams across the organization


Benefits:

  • 401(k) plan with employer matching 
  • Great health benefits with multiple plan option 
  • Sabbatical program (4 weeks after 5 years of service)
