This hands-on delivery role within the Modern Apps practice focuses on building software: designing, writing, testing, debugging, and deploying production-quality code within client engagements. The ideal candidate brings strong coding ability, sound engineering habits, a growing sense of technical judgment, and a passion for delivering high-quality software faster through effective use of AI-assisted development tools.

Technical Consultants own defined features, components, and small workstreams end to end. They operate with day-to-day independence while working inside the technical direction set by a Senior or Principal Technical Consultant, and are trusted contributors on delivery teams building and modernizing web applications, mobile applications, APIs, functions, and related platform services.

In Modern Apps, this role is especially well suited to engineers who are excited about AI-native software delivery. Candidates should be productive daily users of tools such as Claude Code and have experience using AI to accelerate coding, testing, debugging, documentation, and other parts of the software development lifecycle.

Responsibilities:

-
Deliver hands-on development across greenfield and brownfield application engagements

-
Design, write, test, debug, and deploy production-quality code across modern application stacks

-
Own defined features, components, and small workstreams from implementation through delivery with limited supervision

-
Write and maintain automated tests, and validate that delivered work meets functional, performance, and security expectations

-
Participate in code reviews as both author and reviewer, giving useful feedback on correctness, readability, and maintainability

-
Use AI-assisted development tools daily for code generation, refactoring, debugging, test creation, and documentation

-
Extend AI into supporting SDLC activities such as test coverage, engineering documentation, story refinement, and technical research

-
Review and verify AI-generated output before committing it rather than accepting results at face value

-
Produce component-level and feature-level designs and document them clearly for the team and the client

-
Apply established design patterns correctly and recognize common anti-patterns in implementation-level work

-
Coach Associate and Senior Associate Technical Consultants through pairing, code review feedback, and day-to-day guidance

-
Own the quality, timeline, and handoffs for assigned work, and raise risks and blockers early

-
Serve as a dependable point of contact for client project-team stakeholders, and present and defend your work in customer sessions

Qualifications:

-
working proficiency in a second: Java, C#, JavaScript, or Python

-
Demonstrated ability to write, test, debug, and deliver production-quality code with limited supervision

-
Solid understanding of the software development lifecycle and Agile delivery practices

-
Practical experience with automated testing and testing strategies for reliable, production-ready code
