Software Engineer, Developer Tools

Jacksonville Data employs 51,600 people across engineering hubs in Jacksonville and three other locations, building ERP software for mid-market manufacturers. We keep recurring meetings to Tuesdays and Thursdays where we can.

OVERVIEW

This is a backfill for a team member who moved to another team. Nobody expects you to know every framework. We want someone who writes clear code, tests it and asks good questions. This is a hands-on coding role on software used by a few hundred thousand people. Expect code review, design discussions and a fair amount of debugging. Our team is spread across 6 countries. Headquarters is in Jacksonville. We engage team members in India as full-time contractors. Most of our contractors have been with us for more than two years. Expect to work a schedule that overlaps with US Eastern business hours until about noon ET.
