This is a senior-track role. You will bring 2+ years of professional .NET development experience, daily fluency with AI coding assistants, and enough consulting instinct to sit across from a client without a script. At Sharp Hue, AI is not a side project. It is how we work. We are an AI-first software development firm with a people-centered design philosophy, serving growth-oriented small and mid-market businesses. You will own real engagements - building and shipping web applications, APIs, and cloud-native systems that businesses depend on every day. What You Will Do * Design and build custom web applications using .NET Core, C#, MVC, and Azure * Own features end-to-end - from client conversation to deployed code to production support * Use AI tools (Claude, Cursor, or equivalent) as a daily accelerator for scaffolding, testing, documentation, and problem-solving * Participate in client-facing work: discovery sessions, technical walkthroughs, scope trade-offs, and status updates * Contribute to Sharp Hue's internal tools, skills library, and repeatable engineering patterns * Review teammates' code and help raise the team's technical and AI-fluency bar * Translate business requirements into technical architecture and communicate trade-offs clearly to non-technical stakeholders, * You are fluent with Azure - web apps, function apps, APIs, and supporting services, The day-to-day relies on these, so you will want to be solid in: * C# and .NET Core (multiple professional projects, not just coursework) * ASP.NET Core MVC pattern * Azure Web Apps, Function Apps, and related cloud services * API development and service integration * Auth - Single Sign-On (SSO), Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA/2FA) * SQL databases * ORMs and database migrations * Git workflow: branches, pull requests, code review * Visual Studio and Azure DevOps Nice to have: * Front-end fluency: HTML, CSS, JavaScript * WordPress, PHP, MySQL exposure * Broader Azure services experience (Storage, Service Bus, Application Insights, etc.) Consulting Skills Required Sharp Hue is a consultancy. Every developer here is client-facing to some degree. You do not need to be a polished account executive, but you do need to: * Hold your own in a client meeting without a manager's coverage * Ask good discovery questions and document what you hear * Scope work realistically and communicate when assumptions change * Explain technical decisions to people who do not have your background * Follow through on commitments - the most important consulting skill of all Interview Process Our interview process is designed to see how you actually work, not how you answer hypothetical questions. * Screening conversation. A 30-minute call to review your background, logistics, and compensation fit. * Technical and AI fluency interview. A working session where we discuss architecture, walk through AI-assisted coding on a real problem, and evaluate how you think when you build. * Consulting scenario. A client-style conversation where we evaluate how you communicate, scope, and navigate ambiguity. Why Sharp Hue We are consultants first and builders always. We listen attentively, make strategic trade-offs, and deliver results in weeks, not quarters. We see AI like energy you can borrow, then direct - and our team uses it every day. You will work alongside senior practitioners who will give you real responsibility from day one and real feedback throughout. ## Related Videos - [Kill Your WordPress. Ship in Minutes.
