although there are opportunities to work on longer-term projects
connected to our growing software division.
Basic requirements for this position include:
* Work with team members to help translate client needs into
design/application specifications
* Work with design staff to develop detailed prototypes and web
interfaces for all applications

* Close attention to detail
* Ability to effectively test and document your own work

* Self-motivated and self-directed: We need people who will proactively
tackle challenges and can take a project from start to finish when
necessary
* Great communication skills: both verbal and written (Developers often
