  • Define and lead migration strategies for legacy WCF/SOAP services, including service decomposition, API design, security modernization, backward compatibility, and transition to RESTful and event-driven architectures.

  • Evaluate and implement modern integration patterns using REST APIs, microservices, Azure Service Bus, and cloud-native services as part of application modernization initiatives.
  • Perform and enforce high‐quality code reviews, ensuring adherence to coding standards, clean architecture, and SOLID principles.

  • Quality & Reliability
  • Ensure strong testing practices: unit testing (xUnit/NUnit/MSTest), integration testing, API testing, and automation support and high code coverage targets.
  • Collaborate with QA to embed quality in the workflow; drive shift‐left testing practices.
  • Validate that applications meet non‐functional requirements such as performance, resilience, and security.
  • Collaborate with DevOps to improve CI/CD pipelines, environment stability, and release automation.
  • System & Application Ownership
  • Provide technical leadership for legacy service modernization initiatives, including assessment, refactoring, migration planning, risk management, and production rollout of WCF-to-.NET Core API transformations.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve complex issues across environments (DEV/QA/UAT/PROD).
  • Lead root cause analysis for production incidents and identify long‐term fixes.
  • Monitor application health using Application Insights, logging frameworks, and dashboards.
  • Cross‐Functional Collaboration
  • Partner with Product Owners to refine user stories, clarify requirements, and provide estimates.
  • Work closely with DevOps for CI/CD enhancements and infrastructure needs (Azure preferred).
  • Collaborate with QA Lead, Architecture, and Security teams to ensure compliance with standards.
