International Motor Sports Association (IMSA)
The International Motor Sports Association, LLC (IMSA) is a sanctioning body for sports car racing in North America.
Position Summary
The Senior .NET Software Engineer serves as a key technical contributor supporting motorsports technology systems across race operations, enterprise platforms, and cloud infrastructure. This role operates at the intersection of software engineering, cloud architecture, and live event systems, ensuring reliability, scalability, and performance of mission‑critical applications.
This position is designed for an experienced engineer who thrives in dynamic environments, can manage shifting priorities, and is capable of troubleshooting complex issues across application, infrastructure, and operational domains. While .NET expertise is central, this role requires the ability to operate across cloud platforms, networking environments, and real‑time systems that support race execution.
The Senior Software Engineer contributes to both strategic development initiatives and operational system support, including live‑event or near‑live environments where precision and reliability are essential.
Essential Duties and Responsibilities
Software Engineering & Architecture
Design, develop, and maintain enterprise‑grade applications using .NET / C#.
Architect scalable, secure solutions across multi‑cloud environments (Azure, AWS, OCI).
Develop APIs, integration services, and distributed systems supporting race operations and enterprise platforms.
Ensure high availability, performance, and reliability of mission‑critical systems.
Contribute to system design decisions, technical standards, and modernization initiatives.
Cloud & Infrastructure Collaboration
Partner with infrastructure and cloud teams to implement and support cloud‑based solutions.
Contribute to cloud architecture planning and system modernization efforts.
Support hybrid and multi‑cloud deployments across enterprise environments.
Assist in implementing monitoring, logging, and performance optimization strategies.
Operational & Cross‑Functional Support
Provide technical support for systems used in race operations, including timing & scoring and technical inspection (scrutineering).
Troubleshoot issues across application, database, networking, and cloud layers.
Support live‑event or near‑live systems, ensuring operational continuity.
Collaborate with cross‑functional teams to resolve system issues and maintain alignment.
Manage shifting priorities between development initiatives and operational support needs.
System Reliability & Performance
Monitor system performance and proactively identify risks or failures.
Implement improvements to enhance system stability, scalability, and resilience.
Support incident response and post‑incident analysis efforts.
Ensure systems meet enterprise standards for security, governance, and compliance.
What This Role Does Not Include
Dedicated infrastructure or network engineering role.
Pure DevOps or cloud engineering position.
Exclusive focus on front‑end or UI development.
This role focuses on full‑stack engineering, system reliability, and operational support within motorsports technology environments.
Required Qualifications
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience).
5+ years of professional experience in .NET / C# development.
Experience designing and deploying applications in cloud or multi‑cloud environments.
Strong knowledge of:
RESTful APIs and microservices architecture
Relational databases such as Microsoft SQL Server
Cloud‑native services (compute, storage, messaging, monitoring)
Networking fundamentals and secure system design
Experience supporting enterprise‑scale, mission‑critical systems
Proven ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast‑paced environment
Strong analytical, troubleshooting, and problem‑solving skills
Ability to work independently within a structured enterprise environment
Preferred Qualifications
Experience in motorsports, sports technology, or event‑based systems.
Familiarity with timing & scoring systems or similar real‑time data platforms.
Understanding of scrutineering or technical inspection workflows.
Experience with real‑time data processing and event‑driven architectures.
DevOps experience including CI/CD, containerization, Kubernetes, or infrastructure‑as‑code.
Experience supporting live events or broadcast‑integrated systems.
Work Environment & Physical Requirements
Primarily office‑based with extended periods of sitting and computer use. Ability to travel and support live race events, including weekends and evenings as required. Ability to operate effectively in high‑pressure, time‑sensitive environments. Occasional travel, including race weekends and industry events, as required.
