We are looking for a skilled and motivated .NET/C# Developer to join our Content Engineering team at VacationPort. You will help modernize and develop new internal applications to standardize and integrate external travel data feeds into our system. Your contributions will help power a seamless data pipeline that supports a growing network of travel industry partners.

Who We Are
VacationPort is a Portland, OR-based small business providing digital marketing and technology solutions to the travel industry. We work with a range of clients, from major cruise lines and tour operators to small travel retailers. As a small, well-established company focusing on growth and modernization this year, we’re in a unique position to blend stability with forward-looking innovation.

What You’ll Do

Modernize & Migrate Legacy Code: Begin by converting legacy VB.NET console applications into C# .NET Core 8 applications, ensuring compatibility with internal automation tools. As you progress, the job will shift focus on creating new apps and services along with maintaining and improving the existing converted apps.
Data Integration & Normalization: Engage with a variety of third-party APIs and data feeds in REST, XML, and JSON formats. You’ll transform disparate inputs into a consistent internal structure, improving the consistency and reliability of our data integrations.
API-Driven Architecture: Build and maintain applications that consume internal Web APIs. Your work will contribute to improving the scalability and efficiency of our system architecture.
Code Reusability & Libraries: Identify and create reusable libraries and utilities to streamline development and reduce repetitive coding. You’ll help establish best practices that modernize our codebase and foster greater efficiency and maintainability.
Process Automation & Efficiency: Collaborate with the Content team to understand their manual processes. Design and implement automated solutions that free up time, reduce errors, and help the business run more smoothly.

Why Join Us?

Career Growth & Advancement: As we prioritize modernization and expansion, you’ll have the chance to shape how we work. Many employees have risen through the ranks here, and as our Content Engineering department grows, there are opportunities to step into leadership or architectural roles, guiding future team members and influencing strategic decisions.
Work-Life Balance: We believe in flexibility and trust for remote employees. You’ll have room to balance personal obligations and work, but we also set clear, fair expectations for performance and results. Following the training period, you’ll have a degree of flexibility to structure your schedule as long as core responsibilities and deadlines are met.
Engaging Technical Challenges: Our environment is ripe with complexity and the opportunity to creatively solve problems. You’ll tackle diverse data sources, modernize legacy systems, and help shape a new architectural approach. This is an environment where you can flex your technical muscles, innovate, and make a real impact.
