Senior Full-Stack .NET Modernization Engineer
About The Position
Our client is seeking a Senior Full-Stack .NET Modernization Developer to lead the transition of a mission-critical licensing and eligibility platform from legacy ASP.NET architecture to a modern .NET 8+ and Azure-based environment. This role is focused on technical design, cloud integration, and the delivery of scalable, secure application solutions. The successful candidate will join a lean, high-impact team responsible for supporting child care licensing and program eligibility across the state. The organization's core licensing platform is a mission-critical application that supports child care licensing, provider management, and program eligibility. This position is for a senior engineer who wants to lead modernization efforts, solve complex technical problems, and help shape the future architecture of a statewide platform. The successful candidate will play a key role in technical design decisions, application architecture, cloud integration, and delivery. The team is intentionally lean, meaning ownership matters. The candidate will be expected to take a solution from concept to production, including design, development, testing, deployment, documentation, and operational support. Success in this role requires initiative, accountability, and the ability to work independently. This role is ideal for a candidate who enjoys building, leading, and owning outcomes.
