Position: .Net Software Developer
Location: Onsite/Toronto
Job ID#: RQ10004
Duration: 12 Months
Overview
The Intermediate Software Developer is required to work on a number of initiatives across the various business areas supported by the branch.
The SHSM program requires annual sustainment through reoccurring digital solutions maintenance and enhancements, as well as continuous support through software development, project and requirement management, and software testing. This IT support for the SHSM program officially began in 2011 and has been continued since. Ongoing and significant investments have been made in the delivery of the digital solution for the SHSM program. The digital solution is currently being used by SAD for analysis and management of the SHSM program.
Without the existing online program management tool, EDUâs ability to provide key metrics will be impacted and the program will have to be managed manually. This disruption will introduce significant delays in reporting and hinder effective and timely decision making. This role will also support other SAD initiatives including Dual Credits and Math Achievement Action Plan (MAAP).
The successful candidate will work directly with the business to understand and define their requirements and processes, as well as understanding their future data needs. They will also work with various technology teams to translate business needs and work through the analysis and development phases.
