Associate Software Engineer

Projects the candidate will be working on:

• This candidate will primarily be focused on an application modernization effort aimed at eliminating legacy VB6 Winforms applications via recreating and refactoring these applications and processes in C# & WPF, following the MVVM design pattern.
• This development will be primarily in .NET 6, however an understanding of .NET Standard and other versions is required.

Ideal Background:

• I am more concerned with skills than background, but ideally the person will be a proficient C# WPF developer with a background that supports deciphering older VB6 Winforms code, and assessing how to most effectively replace that in C# WPF.
• Healthcare background is unnecessary but might act as a tiebreaker among two qualified candidates.

Team and Team size:

• As it relates to this position, the team includes myself (in a Sr Mgmt capacity) and 3 other C#/.NET software engineers and architects.
• My larger team includes tech support, tech ops, and other members of management, but this position will not be working much with those groups, if any.
• They may be required to work with other PMs as necessary, although none of those report directly to me nor are they currently assigned to this initiative.

Top Responsibilities:

• The primary responsibility for this position is explained in item #3.
• Every day will be analyzing VB6 application code, recreating, refactoring, and replacing those via C#/.NET WPF applications.

Skills/attributes:

• 5+ Years - C# .NET WPF development experience.
• 5+ Relational Database design experience.
• VB6 familiarity. No years requirement here, just need them to be able to analyze and decipher VB6 code.

Nice to have:

• Experience with database security, performance tuning, Microsoft Office proficiency, although none of these are required.
