To ensure that the delivery team is supported during project delivery. These applications provide support for our in-house developed Renewable and Oil-Gas structural monitoring systems and services globally.
UTEC develops a wide range of.NET applications, which may be standalone or web-based.

We also develop applications for data processing and analysis of data. User interfaces and data visualizations are also often required and developed.
The role requires a competent .NET developer who has proven competence in C# application development in a.NET environment using the WPF framework. Equally, we require the same developer to have skills in ASP.NET Core web-page front and back-end development using Razor, Blazor, or related UI frameworks. Our applications are deployed on a range of operating systems and often as containers running in the cloud, hence some knowledge or familiarization with Docker is required.

Further, supporting the network nature of our product line, knowledge of implementing REST API client and server interfaces for our clients is a must-have.

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Our client’s requirements often differ, so we provide data interfaces presented via a range of protocols, for example, MQTT, OPC-UA, and Modbus. Knowledge of one or more of these would be an advantage but not essential.
