CSC Generation's portfolio runs on a mix of legacy systems spanning .NET, Python, JavaScript, and Java. These applications are critical to daily operations, and they need someone dedicated to keeping them healthy while steadily modernizing how they are built, tested, deployed, and monitored.

Within your first six months, you will have shipped pipeline and testing improvements that measurably reduce production incidents.
This is a lean team. You will own a lot, move fast, and make decisions with full end-to-end responsibility.
