• Troubleshoot and resolve technical issues promptly to ensure platform stability and performance.
• Produce high-quality technical documentation for solution design, deployment processes, and support.
• Collaborate closely with Product Managers and key users to deliver features aligned with business goals.
• Maintain best coding practices, promote code quality, and encourage peer reviews and reusability across both systems.

• Strong expertise in ASP.NET, .NET frameworks, and some in C# programming.

• Proficiency in at least one modern JavaScript framework (e.g., React, Angular, or Vue) and its corresponding back-end language (Node.js, .NET, Java, or similar).
• Proven experience with RESTful APIs, microservice architectures, and both SQL and NoSQL databases.
• Solid understanding of CI/CD practices (e.g., CCNet), infrastructure-as-code, and automated testing frameworks.
• Strong troubleshooting skills and the ability to work independently in a fast-paced environment.
• Experience with Crystal Reports (.NET reporting), Mapper, Wilson, LINQ, .NET Forms is a plus.
• Excellent communication, documentation, and collaboration abilities.
• Background in financial systems, risk/fraud platforms, or data-driven ratings/analytics software is highly advantageous.
• Familiarity with containerization (e.g., Docker) and monitoring tools (e.g., App Insights, Log Analytics).
