Software Developer

Are you a Developer or Engineer seeking big challenges?  We are currently looking for candidates who can take on responsibility for designing, developing and delivering software modules and components of varying size and complexity related to Java technologies. In this role, the candidate will collaborate and interface with peers and Team Leads from different departments during all phases of the SDLC, and will maintain and support product features in the Production and Pre-Production environments.  If this does excite you, the SAP Fieldglass Engineering team has an opportunity just for you.

As an industry leader, our product is used by millions of people around the globe and we need to make their experience delightful as well as efficient. Our code base is almost old enough to vote and we have been revitalizing it with newer technologies and frameworks.  Our team is growing so we can take on more challenges. This position is open at our Chicago and Naperville offices.

In the first 12 months, you will:

Ship: The most important thing that our team can do for the company is to ship production software. Aside from adding direct value to our customers, it is also the ultimate validation of our research and development efforts. 

Learn: We move fast and are unafraid to venture into the unknown if it can improve our software or the way in which we deliver that software. As a result, we are constantly learning new technologies and new approaches.

Share: Everyone must be constantly learning and must be constantly teaching others on the team. This can come in the form of code reviews, one on one pairing sessions, group teaching sessions, and more.

Maintain a work/life balance: Our developers and managers work hard and have challenging problems to solve, but they go home at the end of the day and enjoy their evenings and weekends. We can’t promise you’ll never work late, but we can promise that it is not accepted as “normal.”

To accomplish this, you will need to have:

• A “maker’s mind”. Everything we do is about building and shipping software.

• Analyze and translate functional requirements and change requests into technical specifications.

• Develop, test and implement program logic.
• Resolve functional and technical issues through debugging, research and investigation.
• Execute unit and system testing of the design once the solution has been developed.
• Work closely with other team members to successfully deploy code to production.
• Ensure accuracy and integrity of data and application through analysis, coding, writing clear documentation and problem resolution.
• Review development efforts and suggest improvements to the development process as needed.
