Job Description

Insight Global is currently looking for a Senior Application Developer for one of our largest energy production and transmission clients in the greater Houston area. This individual will support the Power Generation and Transmission team and play a critical role in stabilizing and maintaining the Integrated Planning System (IPS). This is a hands-on developer role with strong infrastructure responsibility, combining application development and system support for a commercial off‑the‑shelf (COTS) product rather than custom-built software. The ideal candidate will bring deep experience in .NET, C#, and T‑SQL, along with infrastructure skills such as operating system management, security vulnerability remediation, and networking fundamentals. The initial six months will focus heavily on improving system health, performance, and stability, including support of the AFRM (facility ratings) module. Experience with AWS, Python, or Bash scripting is a plus for long-term system support and automation. This position is going to be hybrid (2/3 rotating), and can sit in Jackson, MS, The Woodlands, TX, New Orleans, LA, or Little Rock, AR. The pay rate for this position will be between $55-65/hr.

We are a company committed to creating diverse and inclusive environments where people can bring their full, authentic selves to work every day. We are an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer that believes everyone matters. Qualified candidates will receive consideration for employment regardless of their race, color, ethnicity, religion, sex (including pregnancy), sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, marital status, national origin, ancestry, genetic factors, age, disability, protected veteran status, military or uniformed service member status, or any other status or characteristic protected by applicable laws, regulations, and ordinances.
