Client Overview
The client is a technology-led company specializing in business management, analytics, and financial services platforms. They are modernizing an established Business Intelligence and optimisation product, with a strong focus on API integrations, data synchronization, and multi-tenant SaaS transformation. The client is recognised for building scalable, secure, and high-impact platforms designed for the financial services industry. They prioritize engineering excellence, long-term product evolution, and collaborative partnerships with senior technical experts.
Phase 1: Integration & Foundation (The Immediate Focus)
The team's initial mission is to build the critical integration with Plannr that unlocks immediate value for our clients. This involves two parallel streams:
- Building the 'Greenfield': You will be key contributors to the development of a new, decoupled Integration Service (middleware) that orchestrates all data between Fintrack and Plannr via APIs and Webhooks.
- Securing the 'Brownfield': Your team will simultaneously remediate immediate, high-priority security vulnerabilities within the existing .NET 4.7 application.
- Phased rollout: Supporting and Active Financial in the successful rollout of the integration service within their advice firm.
Phase 2: SaaS Transformation & Scale (The Future)
Success in Phase 1 provides the stable foundation for the next, exciting chapter. The team's focus will expand to:
- Architecting for Scale: Re-architecting a modernised Fintrack core into a secure, multi-tenant SaaS product.
- Legacy Modernisation: Carefully analyse and decouple essential business logic (for features like 'Reviews' and 'Pay Claims') from the legacy ASP.NET (ASPX) code-behind files.
- API Creation: Re-implement this extracted logic as a clean, testable, and secure .NET 8 API layer, which will become the new application core.
- Frontend Modernisation: Rebuilding the user interface for the modernised features using a secure, modern framework (e.g., Angular, React) to replace the legacy frontend components
- Enabling Growth: Evolving the platform to support new features, such as the "Parent Investment Firm" persona, and enabling a scalable, self-service onboarding model.
Key Responsibilities
In Phase 1 (Foundation):
- Security Remediation: Contribute to the immediate and critical task of remediating security risks within the existing Fintrack code base.
- Integration Service: Be core contributors to the design, build, and deployment of the new, standalone Integration Service using modern .NET 8. This service will manage all API calls and data transformation for the bi-directional sync with Plannr.
In Phase 2 (SaaS Transformation):
- Extensible Architecture: Contribute to the design of the Integration Service not as a single-point solution, but as a framework, ensuring new CRM 'connectors' can be added efficiently and reliably.
- SaaS Architecture: Collaborate with our principal architects to design and implement the multitenant database schema and application logic.
- Quality & Automation: Champion quality by building the project's first automated test suites (xUnit/nUnit) for all new code.
- DevOps: Implement and manage a new CI/CD pipeline in Azure Pipelines to automate testing and deployment.
- Legacy Modernisation & API Creation: Systematically analyse, decouple, and re-implement core business logic from the legacy ASPX application into a modern, secure .NET 8 API layer and javascript framework.
Across Both Phases:
- Mentorship: Act as senior technical guides and mentors, providing hands-on pairing, code reviews,and mentorship on modern .NET practices.
- AI Governance: Collaborate on defining, documenting, and implementing AI coding standards and review processes. You will use AI tools as a force multiplier but also be senior experts who validate, secure, and refactor all AI-assisted output.
Required Skills
