Job Specifications

We're seeking an experienced Software Engineer to maintain, enhance, and modernize a suite of .NET-based applications while developing new cross-platform, mobile, and distributed systems. This role bridges legacy modernization with next-generation engineering, spanning .NET, Flutter, Go, Docker, Linux, and private-cloud services.

A central component of this position involves integrating several independent internal applications to create a seamless, cohesive ecosystem across operational, logistics, compliance, and internal systems. The role also includes transforming a legacy Windows application into a modernized, forward-compatible software architecture.

The ideal candidate is comfortable working across Microsoft and non-Microsoft stacks, private cloud environments, Linux-based microservices, modern front-end development, and mobile applications. Familiarity with AI-assisted development tools (Cursor, Copilot, etc.) is highly valued to improve both speed and quality.

Key Responsibilities

Maintain, troubleshoot, refactor/modernize, and enhance existing .NET Framework / .NET Core applications
Architect and develop APIs, microservices, event-driven components, and back-end systems for portals, dashboards, and enterprise workflows
Build new back-end services using Go, .NET Core, Node.js, or Python for scalability and cross-platform compatibility
Build cross-platform mobile and embedded applications using Flutter
Develop lightweight, modern web interfaces using JavaScript/TypeScript with a strong focus on UX/UI design principles
Integrate internal applications and data flows to improve cohesion across multiple sovereign systems, unifying workflows and reducing operational silos
Plan and execute migration and modernization strategies to the organization's private cloud environment
Deploy and manage Linux-based services and containerized workloads (Docker)
Design and manage CI/CD deployments using Docker, GitHub Actions, or GitLab CI
Manage relational databases (SQL Server, Postgres, MySQL), including schema design and performance tuning
Utilize AI-assisted tools (Cursor AI, GitHub Copilot) to enforce quality and accelerate delivery
Collaborate with IT, engineering, and operations teams to ensure seamless integration and interoperability across business systems
Participate in Agile ceremonies, structured change workflows, code reviews, and automated testing

Requirements

Required Qualifications

3+ years of hands-on experience with .NET Framework / .NET Core development
Experience building cross-platform mobile applications using Flutter (Dart)
Proficiency with Go or another compiled back-end language (Rust, Java, etc.)
Practical experience with Linux service deployment, CLI workflows, and diagnostics
Solid understanding of Docker and containerization concepts
Experience deploying applications into private cloud or on-premises virtualized environments
Strong experience with SQL Server; additional experience with Postgres/MySQL is a plus
Ability to support and modernize legacy on-premise applications while designing new cloud-hosted replacements
Working knowledge of API design, REST, GraphQL, microservices, and distributed systems
Hands-on experience with AI-assisted development tools
Familiarity with Git, GitHub, Bitbucket, or Atlassian

Preferred Skills

Experience converting monolithic applications into microservice or container-based architectures
CI/CD engineering with GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or Jenkins
Strong UX/UI fundamentals, wireframing, and component-driven design
Familiarity with authentication systems (OAuth2, SAML, JWT)
Exposure to distributed logging and monitoring platforms such as Sentry
Experience working with Atlassian tools (Jira, Confluence) and formal change-order or ticket-based development workflows (helpful but not require)
Background in logistics, ERP, or enterprise operational platforms is a strong plus

Soft Skills

Excellent communication and cross-team collaboration abilities
Strong analytical and problem-solving mindset
Adaptable, self-directed, and eager to adopt new technologies
Strong sense of ownership, accountability, and architectural quality
Passionate about automation, UX/UI consistency, performance, and clean engineering principles
