Manager Senior Net Software Developer Jobs in Tennessee

WHO WE ARE

Headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee, Ncontracts leads the industry in integrated risk management and compliance solutions, serving over 5,000 financial institutions nationwide. As a seven-time Inc. 5000 Fastest Growing Companies honoree and consistent year-over-year recipient of "Best Places to Work" awards, we offer a thriving, work environment where career growth and life-work balance go hand in hand.

At Ncontracts, you'll join a team of industry experts dedicated to strengthening the financial services sector through innovation and thought leadership. We're seeking creative, collaborative, and self-driven professionals across all areas of our business - from developing cutting-edge solutions to sales, marketing, customer support, and beyond. Join us in our mission to make the financial industry stronger and more resilient, while advancing your career in a supportive, dynamic environment that values your unique skills and perspectives.

ABOUT THE ROLE

We’re looking for a Level 5 Senior Developer to set technical direction beyond a single team. Where our Level 4 Senior Developers own the architecture and delivery of large features within a squad, a Level 5 Senior Developer operates across squads: defining the standards, patterns, and platform capabilities that multiple teams build on. You’ll work on significant and unique problems, exercise independent judgment, and be accountable for technical outcomes that impact the whole R&D function.

A Level 5 Senior Developer at Ncontracts is expected to exhibit the following behaviors:

• Leadership beyond your team: You set technical direction and standards that multiple squads adopt, drive alignment on complex cross-team initiatives, and represent engineering in broader technical and cross-functional discussions – including with leadership.
• Architecture at scale: You architect complex, distributed systems that span multiple services and teams, design for high availability and resilience, and make the platform-level decisions that others build on. You define patterns rather than just following them.
• Force multiplier: You mentor Senior (L4) developers and help them reach the next level, develop future technical leaders, and create reusable knowledge – documentation, patterns, and tooling – that raises the bar across teams.
• Strategic ownership: You identify and drive organization-wide improvements, take ownership of strategic technical initiatives, and see them through obstacles. You apply economic thinking and pragmatic tradeoffs to decisions that affect the whole function.
• AI-forward engineering: You define how teams use AI assistants and AI-powered capabilities effectively – establishing practices, evaluating and piloting emerging tooling, and ensuring acceleration never comes at the cost of quality or security.
• Honesty: Whether reviewing another developer’s code, participating in retrospectives, or shaping technical direction, we expect openness and honesty. Honesty creates trust, and we believe all great teams are built on trust.
• Low ego: Have confidence in your skills and experience, but be willing to alter your opinions when a better idea comes along. Strong opinions, loosely held – and the maturity to build consensus rather than win arguments.
• Deep curiosity: You research emerging technologies, evaluate them rigorously, and drive adoption of the ones that move the organization forward.

It’s expected you’ll have the following:

• Deep, demonstrated expertise in one or more of the following languages and their ecosystems: C#, JavaScript/TypeScript, Python
• A proven track record architecting distributed systems that scale horizontally
• Cloud architecture expertise in Azure and/or AWS, including infrastructure-as-code
• Fluency with event/message-driven architecture and distributed systems patterns
• Strong API design and security experience at scale, including OAuth
• Advanced data modeling – strong SQL and relational databases, plus judgment on when to reach for other stores
• Experience designing CI/CD and deployment strategies (e.g., blue-green, canary, feature flags)
• A working observability strategy – metrics, logging, and tracing, with SLIs/SLOs
• Experience integrating AI/LLM capabilities into production systems
• A track record of mentoring senior engineers and leading technical strategy across more than one team
• Experience giving and receiving code reviews, both live and written

Typical experience for this level: a Bachelor’s degree plus ~12 years, a Master’s plus ~8 years, a PhD plus ~5 years, or equivalent depth of demonstrated impact.

It’s helpful for you to have at least some of the following:

• Experience with vector databases, RAG, and agentic AI patterns
• Multi-region, high-availability, or disaster-recovery architecture experience
• Experience harmonizing UI/design systems across multiple products
• Familiarity with systems integration and working with an integrated design team
• Experience representing engineering externally – talks, writing, or open source
• An automation mindset

WE OFFER ALL FULL-TIME TEAM MEMBERS:

• A fun, fast-paced work environment
• Responsible PTO Plan that meets or exceeds state and local medical and family leave laws
• 11 paid holidays
• Community and social events to keep you connected and engaged
• Mental Health Benefits
• Medical, Dental and Vision insurance
• Company-paid Group Life Insurance, Short- and Long-Term Disability
