Job Summary

Role Summary

We are looking for a Developer / Technical Lead with 710 years of strong hands-on development experience and proven expertise in technical architecture application security Azure code quality and team leadership.

The role will be responsible for developing and modernizing applications designing scalable and secure technical solutions reviewing and vetting code developed by other resources and ensuring adherence to established architectural and security standards.

The candidate will work extensively on authentication and credential security cryptography Azure Key Vault API security secure coding vulnerability remediation observability performance and application modernization.

The role also requires the ability to lead developers technically identify implementation risks make architecture-level decisions and actively adopt AI-driven and specification-driven development practices to improve engineering productivity and delivery quality.

Key Responsibilities

Development & Technical Architecture

Design develop and maintain enterprise applications using C# MVC/Web Framework and related Microsoft technologies.
Analyze existing applications and understand legacy architecture dependencies business flows and technical constraints before implementing changes.
Design scalable maintainable secure and high-performing application architectures.
Define technical approaches application components integrations APIs data flows and security mechanisms.
Participate in architecture discussions and prepare technical design solutions for complex requirements.
Ensure implementations follow established architectural patterns coding standards SOLID principles and secure development practices.
Identify technical debt architectural risks performance bottlenecks and security weaknesses and recommend appropriate solutions.
Work closely with Azure/DevOps resources to ensure application architecture aligns with infrastructure and deployment architecture.

Application Security & Authentication

Implement and review secure authentication authorization password management password reset password history and session-management flows.
Implement bcrypt/Argon2id password hashing and lazy re-hashing/migration strategies for existing accounts.
Implement secure random salt generation and eliminate static or hardcoded salts.
Secure sensitive credentials and application secrets through appropriate key and secret management mechanisms.
Implement and review RSA AES/symmetric encryption hashing encryption/decryption key rotation and secure key-management practices.
Implement secure migration and re-encryption of existing sensitive database values.
Integrate applications with Azure Key Vault for RSA keys symmetric keys secrets and tokenized credentials.
Review and secure authentication cookies including Secure HttpOnly and SameSite attributes.
Implement API security controls including authentication protection and rate limiting for login password-reset and related endpoints.
Ensure sensitive information is not exposed through APIs logs configuration files resource files or repositories.
Apply OWASP secure coding principles and security best practices throughout development.

Code Review & Technical Governance

Act as the primary technical reviewer for code delivered by other developers.
Perform detailed code reviews and architecture reviews across backend components.
Vet implementations for correctness security scalability maintainability performance and architectural compliance.
Identify security vulnerabilities poor coding practices technical debt and architectural deviations.
Establish and enforce coding standards design patterns branching practices and development guidelines.
Review and validate database changes API contracts authentication implementations encryption mechanisms and third-party integrations.
Guide junior and mid-level developers on technical implementation and troubleshooting.
Ensure Critical/High findings from SonarQube and vulnerability scans are appropriately addressed.

Azure DevSecOps & Reliability

Work with Azure Key Vault Azure DevOps CI/CD pipelines Azure monitoring Application Insights and related Azure services.
Ensure secure configuration and deployment practices across environments.
Support removal of hardcoded secrets/keys from application resources and configuration.
Implement appropriate retry timeout error-handling and dependency-failure strategies.
Contribute to resilience and redundancy considerations for security-sensitive components.
Support repository security Git history cleanup secret scanning and .gitignore protection.
Implement correlation IDs structured logging security-event logging monitoring and observability across modified flows.
Support dead-letter/error handling for applicable asynchronous operations.
Participate in vulnerability scanning static code analysis remediation and security verification.

Testing & Quality

Develop and maintain high-quality testable backend code.
Write and review unit and integration tests for authentication credential API and security-sensitive flows.
Support performance testing of login and authentication flows following credential-storage changes.
Work closely with QA to identify and resolve defects and improve test coverage.
Review regression results and ensure all affected authentication and security flows are validated.
Ensure implementation evidence test results scan results and remediation details are properly documented in Azure DevOps.

Team Leadership & Delivery

Provide day-to-day technical direction to developers working on the project.
Break down complex technical requirements into appropriate implementation approaches.
Mentor developers and support technical problem-solving.
Review estimates and technical feasibility of proposed solutions.
Identify technical risks and dependencies early and communicate them to the Engineering/Delivery team.
Coordinate with frontend QA DevOps and project management teams to ensure smooth delivery.
Take ownership of technical quality and ensure deliverables meet agreed architecture security and coding standards.
Participate in sprint planning technical discussions reviews retrospectives and client-facing technical discussions where required.

AI-Driven Development

Actively use AI-assisted development tools to improve development speed code quality testing documentation and troubleshooting.
Work with tools such as GitHub Copilot Claude Code Microsoft Copilot and other AI-powered engineering tools.
Apply AI-assisted and specification-driven development practices across requirements analysis technical design implementation code review testing and documentation.
Use AI tools responsibly for code generation refactoring test generation documentation debugging and code analysis while maintaining engineering review and security controls.
Evaluate AI-generated code for correctness security architectural compliance performance and maintainability before integration.
Stay current with emerging AI development practices and contribute to adoption of AI-enabled engineering workflows within the team.
