Massive data volume + complex business rules in a highly distributed and service-oriented architecture = a world-class information collection and delivery challenge. Our challenge is to deliver the software systems that accurately capture, process, and report on the huge volume of financial transactions that are generated each day as millions of customers make purchases, as thousands of vendors and partners are paid, as inventory moves in and out of warehouses, as commissions are calculated, and as taxes are collected in hundreds of jurisdictions worldwide.
The ideal candidate will draw upon exemplary analytical, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills, deep software development experience, and a passion for creating maintainable, highly reliable, and scalable user-facing applications that are accessed by thousands of external vendors and internal customers.
