Why consider OPI, and why do people dig working here?
Variety of consulting; new technologies, projects, and people on a regular basis.
Stability; we’ve been around since 1996 and have a diverse mix of clients and technologies to keep us busy, very busy. And we keep a bench. If you’re not on a project, you’re writing software for our internal business functions or you’re learning new technologies. It’s in our benefit to make our consultants as marketable as possible. That’s good for your career.
No politics or management; we don’t get in the way. Why sit in meetings all day when you can code and be productive?
Awesome benefits; free healthcare for your entire family (yes, free), 24 days of PTO + 10 days of sick time, quarterly profit sharing bonuses, you get paid OT, company trips (to Mexico), 3 company lake cabins/homes, various quarterly company events, new Macbook Pro’s, free beer/soda, chips, candy, and so much more.
You work with the best. Do an Object Partners search on LinkedIn and see the types of talent we hire. You truly get to work with intelligent, passionate engineers that share the same goal of building great software the right way.
Low company overhead. It all means more money back into our consultants pockets (profit sharing) or company trips and events to share in the financial success.
Qualifications
3-5+ years Android Development Experience
Released customer-facing app on the Google Play Store or internal enterprise.
Development tools such as Android Studio, Gradle, and Maven (dependency management).
Strong understanding of the Android ecosystem (devices, SDKs, frameworks and libraries).
Strong grasp of multi-threading and concurrency on Android platform.
Hands on experience with SQLite, push notifications, and integration with server-side APIs.
Experience with Android test-driven development frameworks (JUnit, Appium, UIAutomator).
Beta distribution and crash reporting tools such as Twitter Fabric IO.
Mobile analytics via tools such as Google Analytics.
Continuous integration and software development best practices.
Experience with Hybrid frameworks such as Cordova, PhoneGap and Ionic.
Passion for software development. Someone that loves what they do, that aren’t just in it for a paycheck. Do you have dev projects going on at home at all times?
Aptitude for learning. New projects, new teams, new technologies means having to adjust and learn all the time. You might get thrown on a Grails or mobile project as well, so having the ability to jump in and get your feet wet without hesitation is important. If you don’t want to grow and learn, we’re not a fit.
Positive, can-do attitude. We can teach the technology, but we can’t teach how to approach client challenges with a positive, helpful demeanor. The best consultants aren’t the most technical (although that sure helps), it’s the consultant that will do whatever it takes to see a client be successful, no matter what they throw at you.
