Maverick Software Consulting is looking for talented and highly motivated students to work with our clients while taking classes.
Help our clients build and test software using:
- Java Software Development – Java, Spring Boot, Quarkus, IntelliJ IDEA, Eclipse, and related frameworks.
- Microsoft Software Development – .NET Core, C#, Visual Studio, and cloud-based .NET solutions.
- Web Development – HTML, CSS, JavaScript, TypeScript, React, Angular, Vue.js, and cloud-based hosting on AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud.
- Cloud Development – AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, serverless architectures, containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), and DevOps pipelines.

You will be part of a software development team helping our clients develop and test their software. We’ll provide training, let you set your own flexible schedule, and give you hands-on experience that employers value.
We provide training to bridge the gap between academic learning and the practical skills needed for an entry-level software engineer. You'll gain real-world experience in software development and testing—not just ‘busy’ work—as an integral part of our clients' teams.

What We Do
Maverick Software Consulting has a strategic focus on developing entry-level IT talent that aligns with our clients growth. We promote a learning culture with high engagement, our services are cost-effective, reducing turnover and fostering long-term efficiencies for our clients. Long-term Investment in Workforce vs. Immediate Staffing Solution • Building a pipeline of entry-level IT employees is a strategic approach, where the client invests in the future of its workforce. • This approach aligns with the client's growth strategy and helps in creating a stable and predictable talent development cycle. It also fosters a culture of learning and internal promotion, which can lead to higher levels of employee engagement and satisfaction. Cost Considerations • Developing entry-level talent is more cost-effective over time. Reduced hiring costs due to lower turnover rates, as employees feel more loyal to a company that has invested in their growth. • Maverick students hired by the client have between 1 to 3 years of experience in the company's specific technologies and processes, which can lead to greater efficiencies and lower operational costs in the long run. Focus on Entry-Level Talent vs. Experienced Professionals • We are focused on entry-level talent development. We help individuals who are at the beginning of their careers. These candidates may not have a lot of practical experience, but they bring fresh perspectives and are willing to invest their own time to learn new skills. • The process of nurturing new talent involves structured training programs, mentorship, and gradual integration.
