Build With Speed. Solve What Matters.

LockNet is seeking a seasoned Full Stack .NET Engineer to help modernize and transform our legacy system. But this isn't just another "senior developer" posting. We're assembling a fast-moving, high-performing engineering team where every team member owns the work and drives measurable impact. Together, this team gets more done than most teams twice its size-and you can be part of it.

This is a senior-level role designed for engineers who can deliver results with speed, precision, and autonomy. It requires a high degree of technical fluency, ownership, and the ability to execute effectively in high-pressure, fast-paced environments.

What You'll Do:

Rapidly gain fluency in a 2M+ line VB.NET codebase, helping evolve it for today's needs.

Build and enhance our C# middle layer using Entity Framework Core.

Design and implement full-feature solutions alongside our product owner.

Triage and resolve critical, high-stakes bugs.

Own integrations with third-party APIs (UPS, Vertex, FedEx, Twilio).

Collaborate with other high-performing developers to raise the bar for the platform.

The Tech Stack:

VB.NET (legacy reverse engineering)

C# / ASP.NET Core / Razor MVC

Entity Framework Core

SQL Server

Azure DevOps, GitHub Copilot

3rd-party APIs (UPS, Vertex, Twilio, FedEx, Azure)

Who You Are:

We're looking for someone operating at the top of their game-able to lead with both technical excellence and business awareness.

This role requires more than skill - it requires a behavioral profile marked by:

High autonomy (Predictive Index Factor A) : You are assertive, self-driven, and energized by ownership. You don't wait to be told-you take initiative, act decisively, and push projects forward.

Fast-paced drive (Predictive Index Factor C) : You thrive in fast-paced, ambiguous environments. Momentum matters and you like to keep things moving. You adapt quickly, prefer action over perfection, and take satisfaction in clearing blockers quickly.

You demonstrate maturity in both craft and judgment, bringing sharp technical skills and wise decision-making to high-impact work.

You work with urgency and precision-comfortable shifting between deep technical problem-solving and real-time execution.

You are comfortable operating in lean environments and solving business-critical issues under pressure.

Requirements:

8+ years of professional experience with full stack .NET development

Proficiency in both legacy systems and modern C#/EF Core patterns

Must be located within ~4 hours of Nicholasville, KY

Able to work Eastern Time Zone hours for real-time collaboration

Open to onsite team strategy sessions 1-2 times per year

Experience with legacy code migrations

Past success in high-urgency environments

Systems thinking and architecture-level insight

How We Work

We treat AI as a force multiplier. You should too.

We're not looking for someone who dabbles in code completion. We want someone who sees AI as a tactical and strategic coding partner - a tool to accelerate system understanding, eliminate grunt work, and dramatically boost output and clarity. If you're not already leaning into tools like ChatGPT, GitHub Copilot, and others to help you architect, debug, refactor, and document - you will here.

We expect our developers to produce high-leverage output using AI, not to compete with it.

We're a fast-moving, impact-driven team. We prioritize outcomes over process, and we value people who take initiative and deliver working solutions that move the business forward.

Success in this role looks like:

Navigating legacy systems and ambiguity without losing momentum

Taking ownership and delivering without needing rigid specs or long feedback cycles

Being adaptable - context shifts fast, and priorities evolve based on the business need

Making pragmatic tradeoffs between ideal engineering and what the business needs now

Staying energized by complexity, growth, and problem-solving at speed

If you're someone who thrives with clarity of mission but flexibility in execution, you'll be in good company here.
