.NET Developer – Legacy Medical Application Bug Fix (Short-Term)

We are seeking an experienced .NET developer for a short-term, focused engagement to resolve a specific bug in a legacy medical application currently in production. This is a well-scoped project lasting approximately one to two weeks, ideal for someone who can quickly navigate older codebases and deliver a reliable fix without introducing regressions. The ideal candidate must have strong hands-on experience with .NET Framework 4.x, C#, and either WinForms or ASP.NET WebForms (depending on the application stack), along with proficiency in SQL Server for debugging stored procedures and queries. Familiarity with VB.NET is a plus, as the codebase may include mixed syntax. You will be responsible for reproducing the issue, identifying the root cause, implementing a clean and minimally invasive fix, and performing basic regression testing to ensure system stability. Given the critical nature of this application in a healthcare setting, attention to detail and documentation of changes for internal review and compliance traceability are essential. Prior experience with medical or healthcare IT systems is highly valued, as is any understanding of HIPAA, FDA software validation, or GxP requirements. We offer a fully remote, flexible engagement with quick onboarding, clear acceptance criteria, and access to the codebase, database schema, and test environment upon start. If you have successfully handled similar bug-fix or maintenance tasks on legacy systems, please reply with a brief summary of your relevant experience, availability, and hourly or project-based rate. Successful delivery may lead to additional follow-up work.
