Description:
Developer
We are not your typical financial services firm. For starters, we're a fast-growing company with 30 percent of our company headcount in technology. We've been recognized as a Best Place to Work 28 times-and counting-and Computerworld has ranked us highly nationwide for the past eight years as one of the best places to work in IT-and for good reason. We think and have fun like a startup (bocce tournament, annual turkey fry, summer boat cruise, etc.), yet have the financial stability to offer you the best training and technology money can buy. Conveniently located on the commuter rail, we're accessible from anywhere-and away from the congestion of a downtown commute.
Our tight-knit Development team builds and maintains a large private website, which helps more than 1,500 clients on a daily basis. It is built primarily using Microsoft technologies, including .NET and SQL Server. We also have a public-facing site and mobile versions of our tools. Our development approach has always been "agile" and we recently revamped our team structure based on scrum.
Come join us and discover what it's like to be psyched to come to work every day!
We offer you:
