Ok, question:

What exactly do you mean by this:

'“senior application developers” who munge JSON in C#'

Why did you choose to JSON and C# in particular here?

Because it's quite trendy to hate on all things Microsoft, especially in Silicon Valley startup culture. I'm a C# developer and have had other developers cringe in my face when I tell them I'm a C#/.NET developer.

I use VSCode and develop exclusively on Windows 10. I also have mac and linux machines. I think its better to be agnostic when it comes to language and OS.

No particular reason, just trying to provide an example of low-value integration work that is likely to be subsumed by a service at some point.
