  • Unit and integration test development using Scala Test
  • Active participation in stand-up meetings

  • Support clients through system integrations and production issues

Qualifications

  • Degree in Software Engineering
  • 5+ years of web-based application development
  • Experience in Scala, Node.js or Java a plus
  • Demonstrated understanding of relational or NoSQL database concepts and modeling practices
  • Passion for actively learning new technologies
