So what am I responsible for?

We are doing a lot of exciting work in our engineering space, especially within the insurance domain. Primarily you would will be responsible for supporting the designing, building and maintaining of relevant applications in C#.NET and SQL Server.

You would will work in an environment that is currently using mainly waterfall lifecycle but evolving to Agile DevOps environment.
