Job Description:
----------------

Do you have an eternal love of software and learning about software?  Do you have a passion for development that extends out of the work place and into home projects, open source projects or even garage startups?

-	Interested in solving complex problems – both technical and business.
-	Focus on a peer based democratic environment where the best ideas win
-	Interest in Agile development, particularly Scrum
-	Development centric focus i.e. we don’t chose technologies that the CIO reads about in the back of an airline magazine.  We chose technologies that solve problems and make our lives easier.
-	Developers who recognize that development is a creative process and solutions are more complex than just throwing people at the problem.
About Our Products:

Our software acts as a general purpose financial platform that provides functionality such as searching, imports/exports, reporting as well as a myriad of workflow particular to the insurance industry.

Work Environment
We have development offices in Atlanta GA, Glenview IL (Chicago Area), and San Ramon CA (SF Bay Area).  Our culture is built around professional trust and close teamwork.  Everyone is expected to participate on geographically diverse teams composed of dev and qa as well as offshore components.  Our teams are not just made up of individuals who love technology, but people who also love their kids, pets, hobbies and enjoy spending time away from work.

In addition, we offer time to work at home as well as provide convenient core hours (10-4) to help alleviate the burden for those who commute.
