• Strong experience developing, maintaining, and supporting MUMPS/Inter Systems IRIS or Caché–based systems in an enterprise environment.
• Proven ability to work with legacy codebases, including refactoring, debugging, and performance optimization.
• Experience using AI-assisted development tools (e.g., Claude Code, Git Hub Copilot, or similar) to improve developer productivity, code quality, or documentation.
