    Description

    Senior VB.NET / C# Developer

    Desktop Software for In-Field Media Operations

    Location: Greater Toronto Area (Hybrid – weekly in-person touch points)
    Compensation: $120,000 – $140,000 CAD, based on experience

    About DanceBUG

    DanceBUG is a full-service media and software company supporting live dance competitions and events across North America. Our software is mission-critical — it is used directly by videographers and photographers on-site at live events, often under tight timelines, large file sizes, and real-world constraints.

    When our software works well, events run smoothly. When it doesn't, everything feels it.

    We are looking for a senior desktop developer who takes pride in building reliable systems, thrives in fast-moving environments, and wants to own a core product long-term.

    The Role

    This is a hands-on, desktop-first development role focused on our Windows application used by field teams. You will take ownership of a mature VB.NET / C# codebase and work closely with the CTO to reduce operational pressure, improve stability, and continuously evolve the product.

    This is not a web-only or greenfield role. It requires someone who is comfortable working in real production systems where reliability, urgency, and judgment matter.

    What You'll Be Responsible For

    • Owning and improving a Windows desktop application used in the field at live events

    • Designing, developing, and maintaining VB.NET / C# WinForms applications

    • Debugging and resolving real-world production issues (large media files, intermittent connectivity, time-sensitive workflows)

    • Improving performance, reliability, and recovery from failure

    • Working closely with the CTO to translate operational needs into practical technical solutions

    • Reviewing and refactoring legacy code with a focus on maintainability and stability

    • Documenting key technical decisions to support long-term scalability and support

    What We're Looking For (Must-Haves)

    • 10+ years of professional software development experience

    • Strong, hands-on VB.NET experience (required)

    • Proficiency in C#

    • Extensive experience building and maintaining Windows desktop applications

    • Deep familiarity with the Microsoft stack:

      • .NET Framework

      • Visual Studio

      • SQL Server

    • Strong debugging, problem-solving, and ownership mindset

    • Comfortable working under pressure with a sense of urgency

    • Ability to take responsibility, follow through, and get things done

    Highly Relevant Experience (Strong Assets)

    • Working in legacy or long-lived codebases

    • Software used in field, live-event, or operational environments

    • Media file handling (photo/video ingestion, uploads, large files)

    • Offline/online workflows

    • Performance optimization and background processing

    Culture & Fit (Read This Carefully)

    This role requires someone who:

    • Takes ownership instead of waiting to be told what to do

    • Has a strong sense of urgency when issues arise

    • Communicates clearly and follows through

    • Can handle pressure without drama

    • Wants to grow with the organization, not job-hop

    If you prefer slow-moving environments, rigid ticket queues, or minimal responsibility, this role will not be a fit.

    If you enjoy solving real problems, taking pressure off leadership, and owning a critical system end-to-end, you'll do well here.

    Work Setup

    • Hybrid role based in the GTA

    • Weekly in-person meetings

    • Remainder of work can be done remotely

    Why This Role Is Worth It

    • You'll own a core product that the business relies on every day

    • Your work directly impacts live events and customer success

    • You'll have autonomy, trust, and real responsibility

    • You'll be part of a team that works hard and moves quickly

    • There is long-term growth for someone who proves themselves

    Apply

    If this role aligns with how you work and what you're looking for, we'd like to hear from you.

    DanceBUG is an equal opportunity employer. Only candidates selected for an interview will be contacted.
