My client based in Telford is looking to hire a software / Web developer with solid experience in VB.Net and SQL to join their team.

For this role, you should be willing to learn older legacy systems, with expert support. Then, maintain those systems and eventually be part of the team that will create new apps using C# and other technologies.

The role will see you gaining detailed knowledge of their systems as well as maintain and support a number of business-critical legacy systems. In the long term, you will be responsible for translating that app and business knowledge into modern C#/API frameworks. There will ultimately be greenfield development using C# and other languages to replace the old apps.

You will work in a supportive, skilled I.T. team, but you will work on older legacy systems for some time while gaining business knowledge.

Key Responsibilities on this role include, but are not limited to:

• Learn the business and domain and the older apps that support that business.
• Re-develop existing products into modern, efficient, well-written, secure web-based software.
• Ensuring programming follows best practices.
• VB / SQL and problem-solving are the key skills required.
• Understand existing code and its structure; provide fixes and upgrades to the code with a view to simplifying where possible.

The successful candidate will ideally be a highly experienced, confident and versatile programmer. The right person must be eager for learning and development and can work in the small development team to deliver software projects in a timely manner.

Extensive knowledge of VB and SQL is essential. Their main business management software systems are heavily based around SQL with stored procedures that feed a range of systems. You will be responsible for delivering updated web-based systems where code is no longer embedded but centralised and the logic refactored.

Qualifications/Experience/Skills:

• Solid experience in programming with extremely strong skills programming in VB and SQL.
• Additionally, knowledge of C#, MVC, .Net core, and modern web frameworks is advantageous.
• Strong ability to read code and debug a wide range of software and create solutions.

• Advanced SQL

• C#
• MVC and other frameworks
• Jira, Bitbucket, Jenkins, Agile

This role will ideally be office based for the first 6 months, and then there will be the option of hybrid working 3 days in the office 2 at home moving forward.
