  • B.S. degree in Computer Science or related technical field (e.g. EE, physics or mathematics), or equivalent practical experience

Nice to have

  • Excellent communication, including the ability to simplify technical details into human terms, and interact with non-technical parties such as product owners and business analysts.

  • Working knowledge of software design best practices, including design patterns.

What’s in it for you?

We thrive on the challenge to be our best, progressive thinking to keep growing, and working together to deliver trusted advice to help our clients thrive and communities prosper. We care about each other, reaching our potential, making a difference to our communities, and achieving success that is mutual.
