Role Overview
We are looking for a Senior .NET Developer who has fundamentally evolved their workflow for the AI era. You won't just be using Copilot; you will be leading a development process where Cursor, Claude 3.5/4, and MCP (Model Context Protocol) are first-class citizens in your IDE.
Your mission is to convert complex business requirements into high-performance, test-driven production software with extreme efficiency. You are a master of surgical codingusing AI to generate the heavy lifting while you provide the architectural guardrails, security audits, and token-optimized context management.
Key Responsibilities
- AI-Native Development: Lead the full SDLC using Cursor Composer and Claude to generate, refactor, and document code.
- Requirement Translation: Take vague business requirements and use LLMs to draft technical specs, then execute those specs into working .NET 10+ / React solutions.
- Architectural Integrity: Ensure AI-generated code follows Clean Architecture, Vertical Slices, and SOLID principles. You are the Human-in-the-Loop that prevents AI spaghetti.
- Automated Quality: Implement AI-Driven TDD. You will prompt the AI to write comprehensive unit and integration tests before or alongside the logic to ensure 80%+ coverage.
- Token & Context Optimization: Manage .cursorrules and use MCP servers to give the AI precise context, ensuring high-quality outputs while minimizing token waste.
- Performance & Security: Manually audit AI suggestions for high-traffic EF Core queries, memory leaks, and OWASP security standards.
Technical Stack & Requirements
- Expertise in .NET Ecosystem: C, ASP.NET Core, EF Core, and Minimal APIs.
- Modern Frontend: React (TypeScript) with a focus on type-safe communication with the backend.
- AI Tooling Mastery: Deep experience with Cursor (Agent mode, Rules, Indexing) and Claude Code or similar CLI-based AI agents.
- Context Engineering: Proven ability to structure a codebase (using .claudefile, .cursorrules, or Markdown docs) so that AI understands the project instantly.
- Cloud & DevOps: Experience with Azure/AWS and CI/CD pipelines that incorporate AI-based code reviews.
Who You Are
- The 3x Developer: You ship faster than traditional seniors because you know how to delegate boilerplate to the machine.
- Architectural Skeptic: You don't trust AI blindly. You spot a hallucinated library or a suboptimal LINQ query from a mile away.
- Clean Coder: You value Cleaner over More. You use AI to simplify logic, not bloat it.
