• Lead migration of existing .NET Framework solutions to .NET Core, including performance tuning, dependency modernization, and CI/CD hardening.
• Implement AI capabilities end-to-end: integrate LLMs/LRMs, build agentic workflows, tool/function calling, prompt/response schemas, and reliability/guardrail patterns.
• Build intelligent features: data vectorization/embeddings, semantic search, and retrieval pipelines.
• Develop and maintain databases; optimize SQL queries, stored procedures, and functions using Microsoft SQL Server/T-SQL.
• Apply secure coding and privacy-by-design principles (input validation, secrets management, least privilege, OWASP Top 10, threat modeling).
• Mentor junior developers; lead code reviews and enforce engineering standards and documentation quality.
• Collaborate with PMs and clients to translate business needs into technical designs and delivery plans.
• Utilize Azure DevOps, Git (and SVN for legacy) for source control, pipelines, and work tracking.
• Maintain and enhance existing applications, including troubleshooting, performance profiling, and feature delivery.

• Demonstrated secure coding expertise and familiarity with common vulnerability classes and mitigations.
• Excellent problem-solving, communication, and documentation skills; able to work independently and collaboratively.
• Practical use of AI developer tools (e.g., OpenAI ChatGPT, Cursor) to accelerate coding, testing, refactoring, and code review.
• Familiarity with Azure and/or AWS services for app hosting, identity, and storage.
• Experience with SaaS architecture.
• Comfort with CI/CD in Azure DevOps, automated testing, and observability.

Preferred Qualifications (Nice to Have)

• Python experience for AI orchestration, data processing, and tooling.
• Hands-on with LLM/LRM platforms and APIs (e.g., OpenAI/Azure OpenAI; experience evaluating models, latency/cost tradeoffs, and prompt engineering).
• Experience with agentic AI frameworks/patterns (e.g., tool use/function calling, multi-step planning, memory, and guardrails).
• Knowledge of vector databases/indices and embeddings (e.g., pgvector, Azure AI Search, FAISS, Pinecone) and building RAG pipelines.

Skills

• Core: C#, .NET Core, .NET Framework (legacy), JavaScript/TypeScript, SQL Server/T-SQL
• AI: LLM/LRM integration, agentic patterns, prompt engineering, embeddings/vectorization, RAG
• Security: OWASP Top 10, secure SDLC, secrets management, least privilege, threat modeling
• Tooling: Azure DevOps, Git (SVN for legacy), ChatGPT, Cursor (+ Other AI tool experience)
• Bonus: Python, cloud (Azure/AWS), CI/CD, performance profiling

Education

• Minimum of an Associate’s Degree in Computer Programming, Computer Science, or a closely related field.
