Technology world grows bigger and faster everyday. Did you know that 150 milion people have GitHub account? Each of these developers make - on average - 1500 commits a year. GitHub is not the only development tool out there, and development tools team intent to rule them all.

  • Design, build, and maintain efficient and scalable Java applications;
  • Follow and establish the best engineering practices: automated testing, code reviews, pair programming, YBIYRI (you built it you run it);
  • Share your thoughts openly and honestly on what would be the best for the customers and the business: you will be part of discussions about the future of our products and Appfire;
