• Work with relational databases such as Microsoft SQL Server, including SQL queries, stored procedures, data access using Entity Framework Core or similar ORM technologies, and basic database performance considerations.
• Modify and maintain templates using composition tools such as OpenText Exstream, or Quadient Inspire.
• Insert and configure data variables and apply basic logic in templates.
• Write clean, maintainable, testable code using object-oriented principles, SOLID practices, dependency injection, and secure development standards.
• Submit well-structured Git merge requests and participate in peer code reviews.
• Work closely with QA and DevOps teams to support testing, CI/CD pipelines, deployment, monitoring and validation processes.
• Use automated testing practices and frameworks such as xUnit, NUnit, or equivalent tools to support application quality and regression testing.
• Participate in application deployments and cloud-based development practices, including familiarity with AWS services, containers such as Docker, and modern observability/logging tools.
• Assist in resolving issues affecting production and contribute to timely support and fixes.
• Ensure all changes are aligned with FSSI’s application development standards and production best practices.
• Develop and maintain integrations with internal common code, RESTful APIs, web services, databases, and third-party services supporting application functionality.
• Apply basic knowledge of USPS mailing requirements and print production standards to ensure template and output compliance.
