Role: Full Stack .NET Developer - .NET and Front-End Focus

Location: REMOTE

NOTE: Code samples or a portfolio are required , including front-end and UI work.

Job Description:

Position Overview:
• Client is seeking two senior-level developers focused on .NET development and front-end, UI/UX work to support and enhance enterprise applications serving across programs.
• These are hands-on roles for developers who build the .NET backend and the user-facing front end, and who can hit the ground running with modern best practices.
• The current environment uses Bootstrap and Material.
• The Client is transitioning toward an enterprise design system across teams and AWS in the future.
• Candidates must already understand enterprise design systems and be able to work within one independently, without foundational training.
• Accessibility is the core purpose of this role.
• Every deliverable must meet WCAG 2.1 AA and Section 508, and accessibility is weighted as heavily as the technical focus.

Key Responsibilities:
• Develop, enhance, and support enterprise applications using .NET and C#, including MVC and Web Forms where they remain in the environment.
• Build front-end interfaces using HTML5, CSS, Sass, and JavaScript, translating designs into responsive, production-quality pages and components.
• Apply UX and UI best practices and design thinking in the front end, including layout, interaction patterns, and usability, and collaborate with designers on implementation details.
• Implement and extend components within the current Bootstrap and Material environment and the enterprise design system as it rolls out, understanding how a design system differs from a component library or framework.
• Code to WCAG 2.1 AA and remediate accessibility issues, testing with assistive technologies such as JAWS and automated tools such as axe.
• Design, build, and maintain backend services and APIs, with supporting middleware and SQL Server work as needed.
• Apply secure coding practices, including appropriate use of encryption APIs, and handle classified and sensitive data in accordance with state requirements.
• Manage source control, deployments, and CI/CD processes using Azure DevOps.
• Troubleshoot and resolve production issues across applications and environments.

Required Qualifications:
• Bachelor's degree in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), design, computer science, or a related field, or equivalent professional experience. A graduate degree in HCI is preferred. A degree in design or HCI combined with a solid coding background is preferred. Multiple degrees and certifications are valued.
• Strong .NET and C# development experience, and strong front-end development experience. These two areas are the core of the role.
• Demonstrated UX and UI knowledge: design thinking, usability principles, responsive design, and experience turning designs into working interfaces. A portfolio should show UI work, not only backend code.
• Front-end depth in HTML5, CSS, Sass, and JavaScript.
• Formal WCAG training and demonstrated experience coding and testing for WCAG 2.1 AA, including hands-on use of accessibility testing tools.
• Recent experience (within the last three years) with current frameworks and modern best practices. Legacy system experience older than three years will not align with the State's upcoming standardization efforts.
• Experience working within an enterprise design system.
• Experience with Azure DevOps and CI/CD pipelines.
• Working knowledge of SQL Server, APIs, and middleware integrations.
• Experience supporting enterprise production applications, and experience handling classified or sensitive data.

Preferred Qualifications:
• Accessibility certification (for example, DHS Trusted Tester, IAAP WAS, or CPACC) or equivalent formal training.
• Experience supporting government or healthcare systems.
• Experience with Angular, GitHub, and AWS services.
• Experience modernizing existing applications rather than building greenfield solutions.
