SmartPractice, Inc. is a family owned enterprise consisting of a number of affiliate companies serving specific vertical markets. For nearly 40 years, the SmartPractice family of companies has been a diversified organization providing practice management and patient communication solutions to clients throughout the healthcare community.
The Software Engineering group is looking for a Senior WebObjects Engineer with at least 5+ years of experience in WebObjects 5 to help build/support applications for our diverse companies. This individual will report to the Director of Software Engineering (me) and be responsible for (but not limited to) the following tasks: * Being creative. * Being an independent thinker, but open to others' ideas. * Being a good trouble shooter and problem solver. * Knowing how to balance between "over engineering" and "doing something quickly" (and knowing the risks/benefits of either approach). * Being productive with little guidance (a self starter). * Working well on a small team and as part of a larger organization. * Learning something new every day and teaching those around you. * Building/supporting/enhancing WebObjects 5 (Java) applications. * Participate in project planning and estimation. * Mentor other developers, help set direction for best practices and improve the development environment. * Oversee the design, development and testing of assigned projects. * Learn business processes and how they interact with systems. This includes analyzing "project specifications" (and I use that term lightly) to make sure that the technical implementation marries well with the business objectives as laid out by the project managers. * Learn business data structures, how they relate to each other, and how to utilize them fully within a project. This includes reading SQL (PostgreSQL and Sybase specifically) to understand existing applications and writing SQL so that it is optimal for database/application performance. We are a technologically diverse company so it's impossible to list everything this person could possibly work on. Please take the time to look at some of our existing eCommerce sites and companies (be gentle) to get a better sense. http://www.practicemojo.com (this website and the product that goes along with it is the primary focus of this position) http://www.smartscrubs.com These are still in WO4/Obj-C!: http://www.smartpractice.com (rewrite to WO5 underway) http://www.allerderm.com http://www.sellsmart.com http://www.porfavor.com We have always been and will probably always be committed to WebObjects technology. We've been using it since it was in pre-release (1996?). We have a large deployment of OpenStep (supported by a different group) in which our desktop CRM system is currently deployed. Long term, the Software Engineering group has been tasked with rewriting our CRM system in something modern. Most likely it will be back-ended by WO5, maybe front-ended too? If you love WebObjects, we do too, and we won't stop loving it anytime soon. SmartPractice is a great company to work for and I know that you'd be happy here too. Please look at http://www.oursmartjobs.com/ to learn a little about our company and our benefits. Important Notes: * This is not a telecommuting job; work is done on site in Phoenix, AZ. * Salary D.O.E. Please include salary requirements when applying for this position. * SmartPractice and affiliate companies are a tobacco, drug, and alcohol free workplaces. * SmartPractice is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
