We are seeking a skilled and innovative candidate who will contribute to the development and enhancement of our software products.

Our Team

We view software as a craft. We are a 9-person, non-collocated Scrum team in a mid-sized consulting firm.

We seek applicants who are courageous, open, and honest, and who follow through on commitments, collaborate well, and share success with others. We love having a passion for learning and aiming high. We value deep knowledge but encourage generalizing specialists.
