4) DevOps & Delivery

• Use Azure DevOps (Repos/Boards/Pipelines) to plan, track, build, test, and release; automate build/test/deploy steps; improve mean time to recovery (MTTR).
• Instrument apps (structured logs/metrics) and participate in incident response, blameless post-mortems, and stability roadmaps.

5) Technical Leadership & Collaboration

• Mentor junior/mid developers, provide actionable feedback, and model engineering best practices.
• Partner with product/BA/QA and cross-functional colleagues across U.S. and APAC time zones to plan releases and de-risk delivery.
• Communicate tradeoffs and recommend pragmatic solutions aligned with operational priorities.

Required Qualifications

• 5–8+ years of professional experience shipping web applications/services in C#/.NET with SQL Server in production.
• Strong command of ASP.NET Core (MVC/Web API) , Entity Framework Core , LINQ , and asynchronous programming.
• Expertise in T-SQL and query tuning; comfort reading execution plans and profiling.
• Hands-on experience with Azure DevOps (Repos/Boards/Pipelines), Git workflows, and CI/CD automation.
• Proven track record of leading code reviews, mentoring developers, and improving test coverage/quality gates.
• Solid understanding of secure coding and logging/telemetry in regulated environments.

Preferred Qualifications

• Front-end experience (Bootstrap/jQuery; bonus: React or Blazor) and UI performance tuning.
• Experience with SSIS/SSRS/Power BI for operational reporting scenarios.
• Familiarity with Azure services (App Service, Functions/Logic Apps, Storage, Key Vault) and integration patterns.
• Background in high-volume integrations with mortgage/financial platforms.

Working Model & Time Zones

• This position will be onsite and/or hybrid schedule with core collaboration hours aligned to Eastern and Pacific time as needed.
