A colleague of mine who is not near Toronto has a client in Toronto who needs .NET developers. They would like to start out with a contract position and it could become permanent if it's a good fit for everyone. Here's the job description:
Position: Senior Programmer / Analyst
Pay: $7,500 per month contract (negotiable)
Applicant must be an expert or proficient in:
- MFC
- ATL
- COM
- .NET Framework / C#
- .NET Services
- Microsoft SQL Programming
Experience in the following areas would be helpful but not required:
- WCF
- WPF/SilverLight
- ASP.NET
- Visual SourceSafe
- Mechanical engineering experience
Responsibilities:
The primary responsibility is to modernize a legacy C++ distributed application. This may include a redesign and possible rearchitect of the application. The final application should be an n-tiered application. The tiers would ideally be:
- WPF/Silverlight as the presentation layer
- A business layer with business components (C#) exposed via WCF
- A data layer
Where necessary, COM components can be preserved.
Other responsibilities include:
- Move image files from file database to SQL database
- Document the application
- Handle ongoing change requests.
Someone who moved from C++ to C# but didn't forget their C++ would be perfect. They are looking for more than one person so it sounds like a fairly meaty project. This is strictly onsite work, no remote work, which is why I mentioned where they are (east of the DVP; west of Pickering.)
Anything you email to me about this I will forward to my colleague who will in turn forward it to the Toronto folks. Good luck!
