## Description

We are again working with a government entity in Austin Texas, to find a .NET developer to support an ongoing upgrade project.
You must live in Austin or be easily commutable to downtown Austin to be eligible for this role*
There are a number of inter-government projects and platform enhancements requiring support, so it should be a varied, and interesting assignment. They are also working on a portal project designed to upgrade the way the Government interacts with both internal and external partners. They are looking to move away from their traditional Client Services Systems and build slick portals to allow the information to run freely and give partners the best possible interactions.
The ideal candidate will be able to work autonomously on projects, have great communication skills, and be able to collaborate with a small team of Engineers.
They are moving to .Net 6 ( .Net Core ) but are currently working with .Net 5, and the database is SQL. We are looking for people who can work across the stack. ( .Net Core/C# and SQL )
Any JavaScript experience is well received, too, but the majority of the work is in the middleware and back end. ( They use React on the Front End.)
This will be a six-month contract initially with the possibility of extension. This position requires you to be on-site downtown in the Capitol building 5 days per week.
