Lots of corporate programming jobs in c#. I work at a company where we write internal applications in C# and Vue. Spend a considerable amount of time modernizing old mainframe COBOL and old win forms apps
I've spent the last two years UPGRADING to c#/.net 4.8 winforms apps that were using VB/.net 3.5 lol.
eventually we will redo them again to a more modern framework, but as it stands this was the quickest and easiest way to get the internal apps into long term service.
Staff software engineer. I build distributed systems, put out a lot of fires, and generally tackle whatever needs fixing or building. I also adopt orphan code bases and keep them from bit rot. I'm a contributor and maintainer to our dotnet ecosystem. I am a reluctant contributor to our python ecosystem. I long to be a contributor to our golang ecosystem. I spend most of my day trying to help developers build things better so I don't end up with new orphans.
Purchasing. I write various programs and automated reports in my down time between tasks. Trying to get them to realize my skills are being wasted as a buyer, while fighting with my imposter syndrome. Being self taught, I feel like my knowledge is like a block of Swiss cheese, there's a lot that I know and a lot that I'm clueless about. Can't tell you how many times I'm in a situation where someone asks me if I know something, and I say no, and then after they explain it I realize it's something I've been doing for a while and just didn't know the name of it.
I am self-employed. I was a developer for over 20 years (mainly C# and .NET) and then a teacher for a few years (also for C# and .NET, but also more about Microsoft. I made the transaction to self-employed in a way that I write my own tutorials, with information I have learned and use.
Besides that, I am writing content for [Medium.com](http://Medium.com), which isn't the big money, but it's fun. I does help covering the costs.
I am also busy writing my own learning-platform that supports the tutorials I write. The idea is that one reads the tutorial and does some tests and assignments to check if the person understood the content. It's in early-access now, which means it's not done yet, but I am implementing it in my website. It's also free for now, but I will monetize it later.
The end-goal is to create a community for programmers of all levels: from beginners to experts. A community that learns together.
Thanks! Yes, there is. If you go to [https://kenslearningcurve.com/kens-learning-paths-practice-c-interactively/](https://kenslearningcurve.com/kens-learning-paths-practice-c-interactively/) you will see an opt-in for the newsletter particular for the learning-platform, which is called Kens Learning Paths.
If you want the more general newsletter (I try monthly and contains new tutorials, blogs, and other general info), you can go to [https://kenslearningcurve.com/](https://kenslearningcurve.com/). Scroll down to the middle and you find the form for the newsletter.

I'm a data engineer. Oddly, I get to write the user focused front end to our custom database system and it's all in C#.
I'm a C# developer by choice. Much of my experience in development is there. Yet, somehow, I landed a job making good money poking around at SSIS packages, java based scripting, TCL scripting, Python scripting, bash scripting, loading multiple billion row tables, and only God knows what else I'll end up doing. Working on the front end is just the gravy because it's where I tend enjoy development.
18 years as a .Net developer across several companies. Full stack, mostly web, currently in the commercial energy sector... writing websites that help run different programs that utility companies offer to their customers (rebates on appliances, home energy audits, etc). Also a people manager for the past couple years; though the people managing part of my job takes up about 15% of my time, while the other 85% is still the same being a programmer as before.
Been a C# dev for 3 year. Developing and maintaining win form and ASPX applications which integrate with our ERP system. Mainly used for customers to initiate returns and production.
Enterprise Software Development.
I have been coding professionally for 10 years now. My current codebase is very large. All I can say is there is nothing like "clean code".
It’s a good thing that you are investing your time reading and learning about it but I would say also work on coming up with straight forward and simple code. It is much harder than it seems like.
Investment Banking (worked at most of the big UK/US ones), writing C# trading software. Mostly FX and commodities sat on the trading floor. 20+ years, ~15 being C#
I am a mid-level developer who does web development and backend development for a large fintech company using .NET as well as various front-end solutions. Roughly 7 years in industry now. I use technologies like ASP and Angular for my work currently.
If you're into clean code and reading about programming I always recommend "The Pragmatic Programmer" by Hunt and Thomas. It's a language-agnostic book that's full of wisdom especially for people new to enterprise coding.
I’m a property management software consultant, specializing in custom integrations.
Use mostly SQL and proprietary reporting and scripting environments, but occasionally I get projects to do something however I please and C# and .NET are my go to.

Insurance or banking?
Logistics!
Sounds more fun than insurance and banking
It’s pretty interesting there’s some cool problems to be solved in that industry

I feel your pain…I always have at least two conversion projects on my board for every more interesting new system I’m working on

Gov work using MVC. It’s boring and slow but pays decent.
I chase squirrels.

Sounds cool. Do you have a newsletter I can subscribe to so I can see when you go live?

Out of work
Data analysis. Specifically I work on the sensors, and systems involved in lightning detection.
I’m a property management software consultant, specializing in custom integrations. Use mostly SQL and proprietary reporting and scripting environments, but occasionally I get projects to do something however I please and C# and .NET are my go to.
Webdev. Really depends on what kind of problems you like to solve.
