Job Title: Senior Software Engineer

Experience Level: 8 to 10 Years

Technology Stack: .NET 8 / 9, C# 12, WCF, SQL Server, IIS, C++

Key Responsibilities:

Dive into a large, legacy codebase and become the go-to for deep debugging and diagnostics.

Work with WCF services, configuration files, and data contracts—lots of them.

Debug complex client/server interactions, primarily on the server-side.

Navigate and understand interfacing C++ code to trace issues end-to-end.

Use SSMS and SQL Profiler (or similar tools) to analyze database interactions.

Perform basic DBA duties; you’re the closest thing we’ve got to a DBA.

Analyze and debug multi-threaded C# code—this is not optional.

Work in Visual Studio 2022, .NET 8 (moving to .NET 9), and C# 12.

Interact with applications hosted on IIS.

Understand JSON formatting for data interchange.

Occasionally interact with limited WPF UI components—no front-end wizardry needed, just enough to get by.

Must-Have Skills:

Strong expertise in C#, WCF, and SQL Server (2019/2022).

Advanced debugging chops—especially for multi-threaded applications.

Proven experience working with large-scale legacy systems.

Self-sufficient problem-solver; documentation is minimal, code is your guide.

Experience with C++ or ability to read and follow C++ logic.

Familiarity with IIS web hosting, Visual Studio 2022, and .NET 8+.

Competence with JSON, SSMS, and SQL Profiler.

Basic understanding of WPF (enough to navigate and tweak if needed).

Some hands-on DBA experience—you’ll wear multiple hats.
