- Operational Platform Support for Entara and Platform Clients
- Attend daily standup to gather work assignments, scope out commitments, and provide status updates on open development projects.

- Ensure QA of developed features: consistently send completed features to testing by another team member and be available to test other developer's work, as needed.
- Develop and maintain third-party API integrations into the platform
- Execute periodic audit and maintenance schedules on platform components (CMBD, detection of unmanaged devices, etc.) to ensure data integrity, consistent standards across applications, and requirements fulfillment.
- Maintain consistent follow-through on development commitments and assigned timelines. Proactively call out roadblocks to timely delivery and escalate issues as necessary to maintain project integrity.
- Employ an understanding of Entara Core Processes utilized by Managed Services and Professional Services teams, adjusting the platform in ways that will continue to enhance our team's ability to execute with ease.
- Documentation
- Maintain and update standards documentation for platform maintenance in collaboration with DevSecOps Leadership and Architects.
- Utilize available testing procedures and plans for effective QA.
- Track your work in ServiceNow: enter time and work notes against applicable feature record.
- Communication
- Follow established communication guidelines to ensure platform stakeholders and impacted users are aware of impactful changes before they occur.
- Provide proactive updates to stakeholders and users on issues requiring immediate resolution, always employing an empathetic tone toward concerns and inquiries.
- Summarize applied changes and their purposes to platform stakeholders to ensure organizational awareness and consistency.
- Platform Advancement

- JavaScript (required)
- Python (required)
- Golang (bonus)

Being a true 24x7 operation, we all take the lead to keep our operations afloat. As a Developer, you will be an instrumental asset in our release cycle which may require you to (on occasion) be available after hours. You don't shrink away from unconventional hours when the task requires it—you pride yourself on being a team player.
- You're ready to be an effective remote worker and have a dedicated, private space for a home office with a private internet connection with at least 50MBPS bandwidth. Public Wi-Fi and shared common spaces do not meet these standards.

- Empathy: I put team and client before self.
- Excellence: I find inner joy in producing excellence.
- Execution: I value execution over intention in myself & others.
