Small Orlando, FL area software company with large aspirations looking for self-motivated and experienced software developer to work from home as an addition to our virtually connected software team.
This experienced developer will be a member of a small agile team, rolling out releases every 2 weeks to our SaaS application. Besides coding for those releases, we review code, get up early for rollouts, contribute to documentation, respond to more customer questions that make it past our support team than we care to, and communicate openly throughout. We wish we had more testers, too, but you have to pick your battles. We would prefer no bugs, anyway. Daily scrum calls are by video, and a weekly staff meeting is in person or virtual depending on location.
We do not want someone that believes they will work less by being at home. We do not want a contractor mentality of developing a solution that in the long run turns out to be someone else's problem. The last 5 years have been competitive and tough, and our small core team has toughed it out because they believe in the growth of our company and product, which has been year over year 60%.
The product is .NET/ASP.NET/C#/SQL Server, with heavy use of javascript, working in VS 2013 and .NET Framework 4.5 with VS online as source control. We are all, as team members, fully invested in the development of our product. We believe we have a great product, but we know what isn't working well and needs to change. The backlog never gets smaller, and even with a plan we sometimes need to quickly divert to address a market need. We went one way with mobile, and now we are rethinking it for a more current responsive design. Our API has been growing for 8 years, and we need to improve it. We love opensource, but we pay for what we need, too. A lot of our customer's are Microsoft-centric, others are not. We have large enterprise customers, and lots of small ones. We focus on SaaS, and still respond to the market by installing our product on-premise.
In short, we all are on board for doing what it takes to make our company and product successful. We adapt, and find solutions, and we are looking for someone with that mindset who loves to code.
If you have all of the skills listed in the skills & requirements we will be impressed.
No recruiters please.
