About Us

Appward is changing the landscape of business management software with the introduction of a unified platform for apps and low-code development. Until now, businesses have been limited to two choices in selecting software to manage their business: a compromised off-the-shelf product design to appease the broadest possible audience; or a customized solution that requires a lot of time, development and investment to satisfy the individual business needs. Neither of those options work well for most small and medium-sized businesses.

Appward provides a suite of powerful business management apps for collaboration, operations, manufacturing, resource management, CRM, HR and support. In addition, the platform includes a low-code development environment that gives businesses the tools to customize and create apps themselves—quickly and easily—to ensure their software works exactly the way they want to meet their individual and evolving needs.

The Role

Our team is looking for a Junior or Senior developer to build for a novel platform, Appward®, which is created to empower users to build, utilize, and share powerful custom apps online all in real-time. This position is a great opportunity to work with a small team of likeminded software developers to create powerful, quality solutions that will be used in scaling our PaaS with new features, new libraries and new system improvements. The software team will be designing, building, testing and releasing new product features continuously that will give our end users, our customers, new capabilities to do more things in new and easier ways. This role will require critical and analytical thinking as well as excellent communication as you partner and collaborate within the software development team and other departments.

If you have a strong desire in creating software solutions that will help others to be creative and successful at their jobs, then join our team to be part of this exciting journey. Appward fosters an environment where anyone can create something powerful and of high value. We promote a positive culture, train and guide as needed, and make sure you are well integrated within the overall company. We’re counting on your input to make a difference for our users and that you are continuously being challenged for growth and success.

Responsibilities

Design, develop, test, deploy, maintain and improve a web-based software system. Take ownership of your solutions and see how they are utilized in the market by our customers.
Tackle complex technical problems that will be challenging and rewarding at the same time.
Provide solutions on both the front end (using vanilla CSS/JS to build amazing UIs that work great within our own Client-side framework) and at the back end (code in .NET framework and work with Databases, to make data processing crazy efficient). And everything in between for secure and rapid client-server communication.
You’ll be building many features of our software platform from the ground up which will give the option to operate our Server both on and off the cloud, depending on our customer needs.
Follow and champion best software development and documentation practices in a team setting, including revision control (git), team/project collaboration tools (#Slack, Monday) and company’s standardization practices. At times, you will be leading the way and teaching the rest of the group. So, having a love for story-telling and visual presentation is a plus.
Make video demos or write documentations to effectively present your work for internal stakeholders or for external content posts for our customers.
Having a knack for benchmarking and optimization is a must.
We are looking for candidates that want to work in an environment where attention to detail, solving complex problems in a clean, concise and extendable way are highly prized. Always moving quickly because we operate lean and under tight deadlines.
Be able to understand and follow expectations and specification on product delivery. Commit to meeting deadlines and handling multiple projects.
Be a servant leader. Team player, teacher, and a collaborator.
Actively research and share on best technologies and practices. You must have a great learning attitude and be able to make informed design decisions.
Escalate concerns promptly and be ready with proposals to dismantle any roadblocks.
Be a self-starter and resourceful to lead and make progress in assigned projects independently.
Must be customer centric. Always starting with the customer and working backwards. This is critical for success in this position. At times, we might ask you to do customer support.
Use critical and analytical thinking skills to solve problems in creative ways. Develop efficient methods for accomplishing tasks independently and also within a team setting.
Other duties as assigned.

Skills are important, but more so attitude. We expect and develop a positive culture and a nourishing environment. As for skills, we will train, and continue to support as needed.

Requirements:

Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or equivalent experience.
Strong CS fundamentals and knowledge of Object-Oriented programming. Acquired good sense for quality and intuitive software design and experience.
