Application Developer

The Application Developer designs, develops, tests, implements, and supports cloud-based and web-based applications for internal and external clients in a primarily Microsoft environment. The role independently delivers moderately complex features and services within established architecture and engineering standards. The developer uses approved AI-assisted tools to improve productivity, analysis, testing, and documentation while retaining full responsibility for the quality, security, and business alignment of completed work.

Job Functions

• Design, develop, and implement application features and services based on documented business requirements and technical designs.
• Develop and maintain solutions using Microsoft .NET, C#, SQL Server, React, TypeScript, REST APIs, Azure services, and other approved technologies.
• Test solutions for functionality, performance, security, reliability, and alignment with acceptance criteria; identify and correct defects.
• Optimize existing code, support application modernization, and develop maintainable enhancements using established design patterns.
• Create and maintain unit, integration, API, and browser-based automated tests appropriate to assigned work.
• Participate in requirements discussions, sprint ceremonies, design reviews, pull-request reviews, and production-support activities.
• Maintain technical documentation, work items, source-control practices, and application CI/CD pipelines.
• Manage bug reports and user issues through the organization's approved ticketing and work-management systems.
• Communicate progress, risks, dependencies, assumptions, and blockers to team members and business partners.
• Provide practical support and technical guidance to less-experienced developers as knowledge and experience allow.

AI-Enabled Development Expectations

• Use approved AI tools for code explanation, code completion, refactoring suggestions, test generation, troubleshooting, documentation, and analysis.
• Provide sufficient business and technical context to AI tools without exposing information outside approved systems or data boundaries.
• Evaluate AI-generated code, tests, requirements, and documentation against source requirements, coding standards, security expectations, and expected application behavior.
• Break AI-assisted work into small, understandable, reviewable, and testable increments.
• Document material AI-assisted changes when required by team standards and seek guidance when output, risk, or ownership is unclear.
• Treat AI output as a recommendation, not as inherently correct or production-ready.

Required Qualifications

• Strong working knowledge of web application development, object-oriented programming, software design, data modeling, API concepts, and user-interface development.
• Demonstrated proficiency with Microsoft .NET and C#, relational databases and SQL, source control, automated testing, and application troubleshooting.
• Associate degree in Information Technology or a related field, a software certification specific to full-stack development, or equivalent directly related experience.
• Demonstrated ability to independently deliver moderately complex features within established architecture and engineering standards.
• Working knowledge of secure use, validation, and limitations of approved AI-assisted development tools.
• Strong analytical, written communication, collaboration, documentation, and problem-solving skills.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with React, TypeScript, ASP.NET Web API, Microsoft SQL Server, Azure services, CI/CD, and browser-based automated testing such as Playwright.
• Experience supporting healthcare, insurance, cost-containment, billing, X12.837, or other regulated business applications.
• Experience working in an agile software-development environment.

Core Competencies

• Learning agility and commitment to continuous technical development.
• Sound judgment, attention to detail, and consistent follow-through.
• Ability to translate business requirements into secure, maintainable, and testable software.
• Ability to explain technical decisions, identify uncertainty, and raise risks before release.
• Human accountability for all AI-assisted work and final deliverables.

Scope and Decision Authority

• Owns moderately complex features or services from clarified requirements through deployment and support.
• Works independently within established architecture, security, quality, and release standards.
• Makes implementation-level decisions and recommends design improvements within assigned applications.
• Escalates architectural, security, compliance, data-handling, and cross-system concerns.

Responsible AI and Human Accountability

This position may use only organization-approved AI tools, data connections, and development practices. The employee must review, test, document, and validate AI-assisted work before use or release and remains accountable for correctness, security, privacy, maintainability, intellectual-property considerations, business alignment, and final decisions. Sensitive or regulated information may be used only within systems approved for that information. Material uncertainty, unexpected behavior, security concerns, or policy conflicts must be escalated through approved channels.
