Job Overview

We are seeking an experienced Senior Application Developer with extensive .NET experience. You will be building web applications using the .NET stack: backend development (C#, .NET Core, APIs), frontend technologies (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, etc), database work (SQL Server, Entity Framework, Oracle). We operate in a hybrid-Agile (SCRUM-like) methodology with daily standups, sprints, backlog grooming, and demos. This role will focus on designing, developing, and maintaining .NET applications while recommending and/or leveraging Power Apps, Power Automate, and Dynamics 365 capabilities for business solutions when practical.

The ideal candidate will have deep knowledge and experience of the .NET stack and be able to maintain and update legacy webapps and seamlessly build new apps. Someone that writes code daily and loves it. Someone that can build a proof of concept faster than one can mockup a PowerPoint.

Often times we have opportunities to implement workflow enhancements or office automations. We seek someone with experience and a passion for integrating and customizing Dynamics 365 and the Power Platform (Power Apps, Power Automate, and Power Pages) to meet simple automation needs. We have a goal of delivering basic capabilities faster.
