You’ll work in a small team of highly skilled developers and gain satisfaction from having your work used in some great organisations like Victoria Police, Telstra and the Waratahs Rugby Union Club.
Essential:
- Client needs change all the time and opportunities arrive unexpectedly, but you don’t stress because you are Agile
- You write good code because you practice the SOLID principals
- You understand that the server is the heart of any modern .NET Web Stack, thus you are a ninja in C#, ASP.NET, WebApi and SQL
- Client experience is everything so you have mastered HTML, Javascript, CSS and any MV*framework (AngularJS / Knockout)
- Because regression is not an option, you live by unit testing, continuous integration, automated deployment and even some integration testing on a good day
Bonus:
- You wear your code (heart) on your sleeve in public forums (GitHub, StackOverflow etc.)
- You can architect (or at least appreciate) modern scalable systems because CQRS and Event Sourcing makes sense to you
- Your work looks great because you use libraries like Bootstrap and Font-Awesome
- You like being efficient, so you use tools like Grunt, Compass, SASS
- If it’s not git, it’s git-svn or git-tfs. Because there is nothing else than git
