Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• 2–5 years of professional software development experience.
• Strong proficiency in C# and .NET (6+ and/or .NET Framework 4.x).
• Experience building Windows desktop apps with WPF/WinForms/WinUI.
• Knowledge of MVVM, DI, SOLID, and design patterns.

Responsibilities

• Write clean, well-structured, testable, and maintainable C# code.
• Build desktop features on their own using WPF/WinForms/WinUI following MVVM.
• Take ownership of well-defined features or areas of the codebase, with little guidance.
• Help design new features and refactor legacy desktop code, including migrating from .NET Framework to modern .NET.
• Write responsive UI code that uses async/await correctly and keeps long-running work off the UI thread.
• Integrate the desktop client with backend services by consuming RESTful APIs and handling JSON and XML data.
• Work with local and remote data stores using SQL, Entity Framework, or other data-access approaches used by the team.
• Write and run unit, integration, and UI automation tests (xUnit/NUnit/Moq/FlaUI/WinAppDriver).
• Diagnose crashes, memory leaks, and performance problems using the Visual Studio debugger, profilers, and dump analysis.
• Work with QA to reproduce, triage, and fix defects, including ones that appear only in specific customer environments.
• Use root cause analysis to fix the underlying cause of problems and to improve team processes.
• Contribute to CI/CD pipelines in Azure DevOps that build, test, sign, and package desktop releases.
• Support installer and deployment work (MSIX, WiX, ClickOnce) and the auto-update mechanisms.
• Take part in agile ceremonies: stand-ups, backlog refinement, planning, and retrospectives.
• Review code and give constructive feedback, and mentor more junior developers.
• Build strong working relationships with developers, product managers, QA, UX designers, and automation engineers.
• Identify and raise risks, blockers, and technical debt early.
