CaseCommons seeks Outstanding Agile Developer in NYC

At Pivotal Labs, one of the services we provide our clients is helping them interview and hire. Pivotal Labs and our clients place a strong emphasis on Agile development and its many aspects: Pair Programming, Test-Driven Development, rapid iterations, and frequent refactoring.

Improve the child welfare system with innovative technology that can help the most vulnerable families and children – that’s our mission at Case Commons.

You can play a big part in transforming public sector human services by helping us take our Casebook case management system from pilot to platform, enabling case workers to use modern social networking technologies to track cases better, see the connections among the various people and agencies involved cases, be more effective and efficient, and improve the quality of life for families and children.

Your contribution will play out on a huge stage. Casebook is being used by a growing number of private and public child welfare agencies and many policymakers believe that Casebook can become the integration portal for additional government services, including health, education and human services.

… If you are looking for somewhere to do agile development that’s good for the soul,

… If you want to be a founding member of an internal development team,

… If you want to work on a project that is going to improve the lives of children and families,

… If you want to be on the leading edge of applying web 2.0 and social media technology to solving human service problems,

…….. We want to talk to you.
