We're looking for a Contract Full Stack Developer with strong Blazor and .NET/C# experience to build secure, mission‑critical web applications and APIs. You'll own features end‑to‑end—from database to UI—working closely with product, design, and DevOps.
Your Assignment at a Glance

Develop ASP.NET Core services/APIs (REST/gRPC), apply clean architecture, and enforce domain boundaries.
Model data and write performant queries using Entity Framework Core and SQL Server (or PostgreSQL).
Integrate with third‑party APIs and internal services; handle auth, rate limits, retries, and idempotency.
Implement RBAC, OAuth2/OIDC (e.g., Azure AD/Entra, Okta), and application/security best practices.
Set up and maintain CI/CD (DevOps/GitHub Actions), infrastructure‑as‑code, and deployment automation.
Add tests (unit/integration/e2e), diagnostics, and observability (structured logs, metrics, tracing).
Optimize performance (caching, async/await, pagination, profiling) and reliability (timeouts, circuit breakers).
Collaborate on grooming, estimation, and delivery; contribute to code reviews and technical design docs.
Expected Contract Time: 6 months
What We Need From You
Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science or related field (Preferred).
7–9 years of professional software development (or equivalent).
C#/.NET 6+ with ASP.NET Core and Blazor (Server and/or WASM).
Strong web fundamentals: HTTP, JSON, REST, async programming, dependency injection.
Data access with EF Core; solid SQL skills (schema design, indexes, query tuning).
Front‑end basics: HTML5, CSS, JavaScript/TypeScript; component libraries (e.g., MudBlazor, Telerik, Radzen) a plus.
Experience with Git, code reviews, branching strategies, and automated testing (xUnit/nUnit).
Familiarity with cloud (AWS), containers (Docker), and environments (Dev/Test/Prod).
Clear communication, ownership mindset, and a bias for incremental delivery.
Nice to Have
Python (FastAPI, data processing, OCR/LLM integrations, scripting).
Messaging/queues (e.g., SQS, Service Bus, RabbitMQ) and event‑driven patterns.
Security practices (OWASP, input validation, secrets management).
Reporting/analytics and file processing (PDF/image pipelines).
Domain experience in insurance/financial services/automotive.
Physical and Environmental Requirements The contractor must analyze and interpret data, communicate, and remain in a stationary position for a significant portion of the work day.
