Overview:
The client is looking for a Senior+ .NET developer who combines hands-on delivery with an advisory component. The person codes in both VB.NET and C#, designs and documents applications, and is accountable for the quality and security of what they deliver. They also analyze client and partner needs, recommend solutions with budget and deadlines in mind, and plan the work to meet commitments. VB.NET, SOAP and WCF alongside RESTful APIs and Azure DevOps point to an application landscape where legacy components and modern delivery practices coexist. The 10-year threshold in a similar role sets the bar above a mid-senior profile.
Target candidate: a .NET developer with at least 10 years of practice, comfortable in VB.NET as much as C#, who has built and integrated SOAP, WCF and REST services, and who delivers through CI/CD pipelines in Azure DevOps within an Agile team. Their resume shows engagements where they analyzed needs and recommended solutions while continuing to code.
