This is a hands-on role where the ideal candidate brings a blend of strong technical fundamentals and collaborative spirit - someone who takes ownership of features end-to-end, contributes meaningfully in code reviews and sprint ceremonies, and is passionate about delivering clean, maintainable software that solves real business problems.

Responsibilities

• Collaborate closely with product owners, business analysts, and fellow engineers throughout the Agile development lifecycle - participating in sprint planning, backlog refinement, code reviews, and retrospectives - to deliver high-quality software on schedule.
• Troubleshoot and resolve defects and production issues across distributed systems, including message-queue-based integrations via RabbitMQ and HTTP APIs, while documenting findings and contributing to continuous improvement of development practices and tooling.

Requirements

• Strong understanding of Agile methodology and concepts, with hands-on experience in sprint-based delivery
• Proficiency with: .NET Framework, C#, Java, JavaScript, MVC, Angular 2+, TypeScript, jQuery, SQL Server, RabbitMQ, and Swagger / OpenAPI
• Experience with source control and CI/CD tooling such as Azure DevOps, TFS, or Git
• Solid grasp of system integration patterns over HTTP, RabbitMQ, or other distributed/messaging technologies
• Unit and integration test authorship using VS Test, NUnit, or equivalent frameworks
• Exposure to business domain applications such as accounting, payments, deposits, or financial workflows
• Proven ability designing and implementing responsive Single Page Applications (SPAs)
• Exceptional work ethic; comfortable in a fast-paced, dynamic environment with the ability to independently manage a workload across multiple competing priorities
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills across both technical and non-technical audiences

Nice to Have

• Experience leveraging AI-assisted development tools (e.g., Copilot, Cursor, Claude) to accelerate coding, improve code quality, and support debugging workflows
• Familiarity with cloud platforms (Azure preferred) and containerization concepts (Docker, Kubernetes)
• Experience with monitoring/observability tools (e.g., Application Insights, Seq, Datadog)
• Exposure to domain-driven design (DDD) or event-driven architecture patterns
