About the Software Developer Role

Robert Half is thrilled to present an exceptional opportunity for an experienced Software Developer to join our client's innovative team in Fridley, Minnesota. This contract-to-permanent position in the thriving manufacturing sector offers a unique pathway to long-term career growth while immersing you in cutting-edge full-stack development projects. As a pivotal member of our development team, you'll design, build, and maintain both front-end user interfaces and robust back-end systems, ensuring seamless functionality and exceptional user experiences that drive business success.

Fridley, MN, located in the heart of Minnesota's manufacturing corridor, provides the perfect backdrop for this role.

This position demands expertise in ASP.NET, .NET frameworks, and Microsoft SQL, making it ideal for developers passionate about creating scalable, efficient applications in a fast-paced environment.

Why This Role Stands Out

What sets this Software Developer position apart is its contract-to-permanent structure, providing immediate project impact with the security of permanent employment. You'll work on real-world applications that optimize manufacturing processes, from database-driven back-end systems to intuitive front-end interfaces. Robert Half's reputation for placing top talent ensures you're supported every step of the way, with access to premier clients and career advancement opportunities.

Key Responsibilities

• Craft and optimize front-end user interfaces that deliver smooth, intuitive experiences, enhancing user satisfaction and productivity.
• Thoroughly document software processes, workflows, and systems, creating valuable resources that streamline future development and maintenance.
• Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams—including product managers, engineers, and stakeholders—to identify needs and deploy tailored software solutions.
• Leverage deep expertise in ASP.NET and .NET frameworks to architect scalable, high-performance applications that scale with business growth.
• Manage and enhance APIs for reliable, secure data exchange across diverse platforms and systems.
• Excel in troubleshooting and debugging, swiftly resolving issues to minimize downtime and maintain system reliability.
• Apply advanced Microsoft SQL knowledge to optimize database performance, ensuring data integrity and lightning-fast queries.
• Support broader system operations by integrating essential software tools and features that enhance overall functionality.
• Drive software development projects with unwavering attention to detail and quality assurance, delivering code that exceeds industry standards.

Required Qualifications

To thrive as our Software Developer, you'll bring proven expertise and a proactive mindset. Key qualifications include:

• Demonstrated experience in full-stack development, with a strong portfolio showcasing ASP.NET and .NET framework projects.
• Advanced proficiency in Microsoft SQL Server for database design, optimization, and management.
• Hands-on experience with API development and integration, including RESTful services and data exchange protocols.
• Skilled in modern front-end technologies (HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript) for creating responsive, user-centric interfaces.
• Strong problem-solving abilities with a track record of efficient debugging and issue resolution.
• Excellent documentation skills to maintain clear, comprehensive records of codebases and processes.
• Collaborative spirit with experience working in agile, cross-functional teams in manufacturing or similar industries.
• Commitment to quality assurance and best practices in software engineering.
