  • Advanced SQL Server expertise, including schema design, index strategy, stored procedures, query optimization, and execution plan analysis
  • Experience with enterprise authentication and authorization (OAuth2, OIDC, Azure AD / Entra ID or similar), along with secure development practices
  • Proven ability to lead and own architectural decisions at both application and database levels, while working effectively across complex, multi-application enterprise environments
  • Strong experience improving and navigating legacy codebases, with a focus on enhancing performance, scalability, and maintainability
  • Experience with Git-based version control, collaborative code review, DevOps practices (CI/CD pipelines), and containerization technologies (Docker)
  • Familiarity with performance profiling and troubleshooting tools, application modernization/migration (.NET Framework to .NET Core), and emerging development practices including AI-assisted coding tools
  • Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to translate business requirements into technical solutions, work independently, manage priorities, and deliver high-quality outcomes
  • High attention to detail with a strong focus on code quality, documentation, and user experience, including UI/UX considerations
