Java Technical Consultant Needed for Elite Team

Java Technical Consultant - Integration Specialist

Our client is a young, dynamic player within the Internet / Web Technology industry, working with Fortune 500 clients to solve their development needs mainly in AquaLogic and Oracle COREid. Growing rapidly, this innovative company is looking to hire a number of technical consultants to work in a permanent capacity (they will not consider contractors and therefore they will provide salary, bonus and full benefit package).

You will be responsible for gathering requirements, providing solutions, and developing the desired application on one of two platforms: MS SharePoint or BEA Portal (formerly Plumtree Portal) using web technologies (ASP.NET, XML, AJAX). A key element of this role is to have the flexibility to work on Java projects, so experience with Java is required.

Travel:

As a Level I technical consultant, you will be working mostly on-site with clients, and therefore, you can be based anywhere in Canada or the US as long as you live near an airport. Our client’s engagements are no shorter than three months. Therefore, you’ll be provided with an executive apartment, rental car (if necessary), and a per diem for expenses. You will be flown home every other weekend (or you can fly somewhere else for fun, like Vegas if you’re situated in the US Southwest for example). After eight months of service, you will be eligible to fly home every weekend.

Career Progression:

If you’re highly motivated and successful, you can move into a Level II technical role with this organization within eight months to one year. In addition to continuing web integration, you might also now be responsible for application implementations and administration. In addition, our client will now fly you home (or elsewhere for fun) every weekend and they’ll give you a raise. By year three, you should be at a Technical Consultant Level III and your compensation could be approaching or over $100k.

Training:

Training is paid for by our client (online & on-site) and only candidates that demonstrate the required skills thereafter will be awarded with the opportunity to join our client’s elite team.
