Job Summary:

As a Software Developer on the Maintenance and Compliance (M&C) product team at Helm, you will design, build, and enhance the features that keep the world's maritime fleets safe, compliant, and running. M&C is one of Helm CONNECT's most widely adopted product lines, and this seat sits at the center of two of Helm's most significant active engagements: the Kirby offshore implementation and the Boluda Corporacion Maritima global rollout. You'll work across the full stack - .NET/C# services, Vue.js front ends, and PostgreSQL - collaborating with product, QA, and fellow developers to ship reliable, scalable features against customer-committed timelines.

Job Description:

What you are responsible for:

Feature Development and Delivery:


- Design and implement M&C features across the full software stack, including maintenance workflows, compliance and document management, and asset/component tracking.

Collaboration and Communication:
- Work with product management, QA, and other developers in project planning to achieve high-value, high-quality solutions.
- Participate in daily stand-ups, kick-offs, collaborative estimation, and retrospective meetings.
- Collaborate with support and implementation teams to investigate and resolve issues reported from live customer environments.

AI-Augmented Development:


- Leverage AI tools (Claude Code, GitHub Copilot) for code generation, refactoring, test creation, and documentation as part of Helm's AI-first development SOP.
- Critically evaluate AI-generated output - catching errors, refining results, and ensuring AI-assisted work meets Helm's quality and security standards.
- Share AI practices and learnings with the team to continuously improve delivery velocity.

Quality and Ownership:


- Own the quality of your deliverables through unit testing, integration validation, and go-live readiness support.
- Support post-release monitoring and issue resolution for the features you ship.

- Experience with strongly typed object-oriented languages (C# preferred).
- Experience with front-end frameworks (Vue preferred) and modern web technologies (HTML5, CSS).

- Solid Git fundamentals - branching strategies, pull requests, and code reviews in a shared repository.

Business Acumen:


- Understanding of how software delivery connects to customer outcomes and revenue.
- Comfort working against contractual, customer-committed deadlines.

Communication:
- Excellent written and verbal English communication skills.
- Proactive communicator who shares progress, asks questions, and clarifies expectations without needing to be asked.

Education, Certifications and Training:


- Bachelor's degree in computer science or a related field, or equivalent experience.

Bonus points if you also have:
- Maritime Industry Knowledge.
- Experience with enterprise document management or SharePoint integration.
- Hands-on experience using AI tools (Claude Code, Copilot, or similar) to accelerate development work.
