RESPONSIBILITIES:

A little but about you… You are a solid engineer… someone that other engineers respect for cleanliness of code and someone that product managers love to work with because you understand the roadmap and are always thinking ahead in your design. You are curious, creative and constantly think of new ways to improve what we do so that we can fulfill our mission. And because we are a start-up, you have no ego and a willingness to do whatever it takes to ship a product to market.

And of course, the skills…

• Design, develop, test, implement and analyze computer systems and network applications based on client and business needs.

• Develop computer systems and databases using Object Oriented programming technologies.

• Migrate and clean data as needed and provide professional assistance and tech support to internal and external clients regarding system maintenance and business requirements.

• May assume a leadership role as needed.
