Values:

Ownership. We need someone who embodies this value and can figure things out and move quickly. If you need direction and someone to hold your hand, this job is not for you.

Customer Obsessed. Unit and integration tests should deliver value in reducing code smells, and issues via static analysis feedback. In other words, our customers should be saying, "Aw dip. This product is off the charts cool.  Whoever wrote that code deserves a raise!"

We are committed to equal opportunity regardless of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, disability, Veteran status, or other legally protected characteristics. This position may require the successful completion of a criminal background check and/or drug screen.
