Software Developer - Summer Student

*** You MUST be returning to school in September 2020 ***

We’re looking for a Software Developer Summer Student to join our hard-working and passionate team. We work together, eat lunch together and watch the latest internet cat videos together. The coders code, the designers design and the support team support. And when one man is down, we take off one hat and put on another to help each other out.

Our products and brands are constantly evolving, making for an exciting and dynamic work environment. Because our developers, designers, support and marketing teams all work within the same office, we are constantly communicating with one another in order to continuously improve our software. We believe this is essential in maintaining a productive work environment while providing our users with up-to-date, high-quality products. As a result, we can implement change quickly, and we love to hear fresh perspectives.

Our thousands of users from all over the globe would tell you that a client-first approach is at the centre of everything we do. They love how our software is constantly improving to make for a more positive user experience. If you were to ask our employees what brings them to work every day, they would tell you the free snacks, but they would also mention the amazing team environment, the opportunity to contribute to a diverse range of projects and an open-minded atmosphere…but mostly they’re in it for the free snacks. At the end of the day, we’re a group of individuals who take pride in what we do. We’re problem solvers, strategic thinkers, internet cat video watchers and creative multi-taskers. We work hard while striving to maintain excellence – not just in our software, but in our day-to-day.

What you’ll be working on:

  • Implementing features in an ASP.NET and C# web application
  • Implementing features and unit testing in an Angular and Typescript single page application
  • A development environment which is agile and utilizes Git and Continuous Integration

Things you’ll need:

  • Working towards a bachelor’s degree in computer science or software engineering
  • Experience with C# or Java
  • Independent critical thinking and problem-solving skills
  • Ability to communicate effectively

Things that will make you stand out:

  • Full-stack web development
  • Microsoft .NET Framework
  • ASP.NET
  • Angular
  • Typescript or JavaScript
  • Unit testing frameworks such as NUnit, Jasmine and Karma

Why work with us?

  • We don’t micromanage! (We promise) We believe in our employees’ skills and abilities
  • Team building events throughout the year that not only include you but your significant other
  • “Last Friday of the Month” lunch, where we vote on a new lunch spot each month
  • We do donuts on Fridays
  • Casual dress code. Show some personality, just not too much…
  • Come to work every day knowing you work with some pretty cool people

Our team strives to create, design, and maintain excellence. Not just in our software, but in our day-to-day. If you’d like to stretch your talents and you value a work-life balance, please send your cover letter and resume to careers@port443.io
