Java Consultant - Spring, API, C#
Back in the day (a good five years ago or so), the educational industry was very departmentalized in a more literal sense of the word. Many different facets of educational organizations (elementary, secondary, academy, university, etc) were separated by department and even sometimes specific focuses. It was extremely difficult to trade information, find resources, and sometimes even know the other members of the organization in which you work. That was until my client, currently looking for a strong Java Engineer with experience within both Linux and a tad of Windows for a long term contract, stepped in to create a higher education management software that encompassed the entirety of the organizational picture and put it in one neat application that’s easily navigated and dynamically created to be as efficient as possible.
As mentioned, the Java Developer position will be seeking a candidate that has a strong background in Java development. Typically more of a C# geared shop, their java team helps to implement the larger infrastructure in which the developers get to play. This being said, knowledge of the .Net framework and specifically C# will go far to put you towards the top of the pack in terms of candidates. The company boasts a very stable image and a great benefits package that will reward you with not only an awesome staff, workplace, and position but also give you the safety and security to live the life you want.
