.NET Full Stack Developer - Application Development Support & Modernization

Position Summary

The Developer provides hands-on application development and end-user application support for NEA?s grant systems Electronic Grants Management System (eGMS) and the Applicant Portal and supports enhancements and new application development using an agile approach. In addition to maintaining and enhancing NEA?s existing Microsoft-based environment, this role is expected to introduce modern engineering practices (automation, security-by-design, improved observability, performance tuning, and maintainable architecture) that measurably improve delivery speed, quality, and reliability.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, code, test, implement, document, and support new and existing applications across eGMS, Applicant Portal, and other NEA applications.
  
• Develop and upgrade utilities within the systems; create Windows services/scheduled utilities as needed.
  
• Program web-based applications using ASP.NET MVC, C#, SQL Server, and supporting web technologies (HTML/CSS/JavaScript).
  
• Perform ETL and data migration using SQL scripts and/or web services.
  
• Create, modify, and document interfaces between Grants.gov and NEA?s financial system.
  
• Write basic to complex SQL queries, stored procedures, and tune queries for performance.
  
• Develop standardized and custom reports using SSRS (and/or Crystal Reports where applicable).
  
• Collaborate with NEA staff and stakeholders to refine requirements, assess feasibility, and create plans for enhancements and releases.
  
• Develop test plans, scripts, and scenarios and support testing and release management.
  
• Provide daily internal application technical support and troubleshoot issues through resolution.
  
• Participate in ?tiger teams? for shared service enhancements (design, documentation, development, testing, implementation).
  
• DevSecOps and automation, improve CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, code quality gates, and repeatable deployments.
  
• Apply secure coding practices, secrets management, least privilege patterns, and proactive vulnerability remediation aligned to NEA training and security expectations.
  
• Optimize SQL/query plans, indexing, caching where appropriate, and reduce bottlenecks in integrations and reports.
  
• Introduce modular design, API-first patterns, and maintainable abstractions without risky ?big bang? rewrites.
