- Contribute to the organization's ongoing modernization and technology migration initiatives.
- Support the eventual evolution of applications toward C# and ASP.NET Core.

- Ability to create clear, simple software design specifications.
- Ability to independently deliver both product roadmap and customer-specific development work.
