Job description

Salary: 76,000-86,500

What you will be doing

As a recent/upcoming graduate who studied software development, you will enhance your skills working on one of our development teams creating safety critical systems.

So if you like a lot of diversity and learning new skills, we are the company for you. Almost all of the work is done in our office and there is very little travel involved with these development efforts. Our company emphasizes a great work and personal life balance. Salary range for each of our offices is $76,000-86,500 depending on location.
