§ You are technically savvy. You can identify or research a problem, and follow-through to resolution.
§ You are detail-oriented and possess strong communication skills.
§ You can roll with the punches of a young IT company, make a positive impact and help us grow.

We believe in summer Fridays.
Casual dress, some free food, a good number of happy hours and outings.
Personal transportation is a big plus, but not a must.
