We are seeking an Application Engineer to join the Finance team, where you’ll play a key role in supporting Finance systems and driving process improvements. This role is more than maintaining applications it’s about partnering with Finance stakeholders to develop innovative solutions, automate workflows, and enable smarter business decisions. If you thrive at the intersection of technology, data, and collaboration, this position offers the chance to make a lasting impact on how Finance operates.

What you’ll be doing:

· Own the reliability, performance, and scalability of Finance business systems built on Microsoft SQL Server and .NET.

· Design, develop, and optimize backend services, APIs, and integrations using C# (.NET 6+), T-SQL, and ETL pipelines (e.g., SSIS/Azure Data Factory).

· Model data and author performant objects (tables, indexes, views, stored procedures, functions) to support Finance reporting and month-end close.

· Build and maintain integrations with ERP, billing, and data warehouse systems (REST/GraphQL, webhooks, file-based, queues).

· Troubleshoot production issues across application, database, and integration layers; perform root-cause analysis and preventive fixes.

· Implement CI/CD and version control practices using GitHub (Actions), including automated tests and deployment pipelines.

· Partner with Finance stakeholders to translate requirements into technical designs; deliver solutions that improve accuracy, timeliness, and control.

· Partner with the Finance Systems team on AI-driven automation initiatives, including applying LLM-based tools and agentic workflows to streamline royalty, order-to-cash, and close processes.

· Build and maintain integrations with AI services (e.g., Azure Cognitive Services, Anthropic/OpenAI APIs) to support intelligent document processing, anomaly detection, and workflow automation across Finance systems.

· Evaluate and prototype emerging AI tools and techniques to identify opportunities for reducing manual effort in Finance operations.

· Leverage Azure services (Functions, Service Bus/Queues, Key Vault; Cognitive Services where valuable) to automate workflows and validations.

· Contribute to operational reporting; Power BI/DAX exposure is a plus for self-service dashboards and data validation.

· Maintain technical documentation, change logs, and configuration artifacts to meet audit/compliance standards.

· Support release planning, regression testing, and cutover for upgrades and new implementations; champion process improvements.

Scope & Impact:

· Acts as the technical SME for .NET and database engineering within Finance systems.

· Ensures system accuracy, performance, and compliance that directly affect close processes, revenue/royalty calculations, and analytics.

· Shares ownership, alongside the Finance Systems team, of AI-enabled tooling that supports Foundry and royalty operations, ensuring these capabilities scale as adoption grows.

· Delivers medium-complexity solutions independently; partners on architecture and serves as an escalation point for critical incidents.

What we’re looking for:

• Degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or equivalent experience.

• 3-5+ years building production software with C# and .NET (ASP.NET Core/Workers/Functions).

• Advanced SQL Server skills: data modeling, T-SQL, indexing, query tuning, transaction handling, and performance troubleshooting.

• Hands-on ETL/integration experience (SSIS, Azure Data Factory, or similar); strong understanding of data quality and reconciliation.

• Experience building and securing RESTful APIs; familiarity with authentication/authorization patterns (OAuth/OpenID Connect).

• Git/GitHub proficiency for branching, code reviews, and CI/CD (GitHub Actions or Azure DevOps).

• Familiarity with Azure services (Functions, Service Bus, Storage, Key Vault, Cognitive Services).

• Exposure to applying AI/LLM tools to business process automation (e.g., prompt engineering, retrieval-augmented generation, agentic workflows) is a strong plus.

• Nice to have: ORM familiarity (Entity Framework Core), message-based integration patterns, scripting (PowerShell), and exposure to Power BI/DAX.

• Strong problem-solving and communication skills; able to explain technical concepts to non-technical partners and document clearly.

• Highly organized, adaptable, and comfortable juggling multiple priorities in a fast-moving environment.
