Job Description

• 3+ years of Development experience
• You need a degree related to software engineering.
  • We value an education in Computer Science or a related field. We recognize that not all software engineers have formal education and understand that years of experience in the field can be equivalent. We appreciate and look for someone who has a strong foundation that we can build upon to help you hone your skills and push your career further.
• Familiarity with agile methodology is great to have, but not required. This role will include participation in and informal management of sprint planning and estimation of tasks.
• This role will include participation in technical architecture discussions and implementation methods for various projects/technologies.
• Software engineers have the freedom to find new tools and processes that can speed up the development process and assist with meeting the company goals.
• We have several products that range across multiple languages, implementation strategies, and industry sectors.
• Developing at CEI is not only challenging but also rewarding because you can learn technology that isn't widely used as well as find and implement the latest technology trends.
• Because we have hundreds of clients utilizing our software at any given time, our software must be scalable and maintainable to support our wide user base. Understanding how to design solutions that perform well across many different types of clients (small mom-and-pop shops or large enterprise clients) is key.

• You must be a strong, independent learner.
  • As we strive to maintain the latest solutions, researching and having the ability to learn these solutions is a must. We also support legacy applications in a variety of languages that software engineers will need to research and learn.
  • Our solutions utilize very different tool stacks and coding languages. These languages and tool stacks range from Delphi, VB6, VBScript, C++, C#, Fortran, SQL, .Net Framework, .Net Core, Asp.net, WPF and PowerShell scripting. While this isn't an all-inclusive list, it does show a segment of the range of languages and tools we will need to know and support.
• You must have a collaborative mindset.
  • We work together across the company (including the agile development team, our sales team and support group) to design the products we offer. We work daily with our Mechanical Engineers to learn what is changing in the industry and implement the changes they request that will best meet our client's needs.
• You must have strong written and verbal communication skills.
  • We work with clients and other CEI employees around the globe. With a move to a more virtual environment, communication is even more important than ever before.
• You need to be self-directed.
  • You must be able to logically evaluate, break down, and respond to problems or changes as they arise.
• You must be flexible.
  • CEI is part of a high-growth company. Priorities can change and software engineers need to be flexible regarding those changing priorities. Because we are an agile team that works with other software engineers around the globe, we also need to be flexible regarding scheduling times to work with those resources.
• You must respect and value diversity.
  • Diversity is what makes CEI a strong and prosperous company. We value the different backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives that individuals have. You must be able to welcome ideas different than yours and respect opinions that differ from your own.
