As a computer programmer, part-time work is widely available, both in corporate offices and over the internet. In this role, you may help code software, determine the programming steps needed to meet design goals, use your computer to test the existing software, and otherwise help develop and improve software. Part-time computer programmers often work on a corporate network and help engineer solutions to technical problems. In this context, part-time means fewer than 40 hours per week.
