    • History of success on cross-functional teams; experience building products using agile methodologies (pair programming, stand-ups, planning sessions, and sprints)
    • Basic understanding of object oriented programming, experience working with relational databases and database design/data modeling, and SQL skills (writing queries, joins, views, etc)
    • Knowledge of software testing practices (test-driven development, automated test suites within a continuous integration framework)
    • Integrations experience using APIs such as REST and SOAP, JDBC connections, and web services
    • Familiarity with Amazon Web Services (AWS), Artificial Intelligence (AI), Analytics, Machine Learning, Google Cloud, Application Integration, Database, Developer Tools, Management & Governance, and Elastic Containers (preferred)

    Basic qualifications:

    • 1+ years of experience with hands-on software development or technical consulting
    • Experience with object-oriented programming, working with relational databases, database design/data modeling, and SQL skills (writing queries, joins, views, etc.)
    • B.S./B.A. in Engineering, Computer Science, Information Systems, Mathematics, or a related field/degree
    • Willingness to travel; 20% or less annually to support customer engagement
