  • Excitement for understanding our customers and their problems, so that we can champion Modern Governance all around the world 
  • Experience with a wide range of software development languages, frameworks, patterns, and tools
  • You will need experience with legacy systems as well as new architectures and technologies and be able to balance the need for pragmatic solutions that leverage our existing assets with the desire for best of breed modern solutions to set a foundation for years to come.
