Level 12 - remote jobs

Who Are We? Level 12 is development firm that specializes in building custom software for our customers.  We manage the entire process including planning, managing, and building software exactly as the customer needs it. We serve customers in diverse industries including: railroad, automotive, manufacturing, and retail payments. We set ourselves apart by digging into the customer’s problem until we can own it and then delivering highly functional software that brings significant value to the customer’s organization.  That may not sound unique, but the longer we do this, the more we encounter people who have been burned by bad development experiences with other firms.  We look for long-term relationships with our customers and have some that go back to 2005. We may not be changing the world, but we are impacting the lives of our customers and their employees.  You don’t have to take our word for it, checkout some of our reviews by our customers. Please watch the video on our website to learn why milk trucks are better than tanks (and learn more about our development process at the same time) (< 2 mins). Emphasis on Development Best Practices Behind the scenes, we are using software development best practices to ensure that the code we deliver is flexible, maintainable, and works well for the user for years to come. We know what it’s like to work in a substandard development environment or culture that accepts or maybe even promotes practices that kill developer productivity and enjoyment. We work hard at promoting development best practices and ingraining them into our culture. If you come work for us, you can look forward to: All projects managed in a DVCS (mostly Git, there might be a few obscure mercurial repos laying around that will eventually get converted) Project management mostly on GitHub for pull requests, issue management, code coverage, CI integration, etc. Developer friendly project setup: all our projects can be run locally on a developer’s machine. Test-centric development methodology: Asking “how can we test this” is ingrained into our engineering and development workflow. We have Continuous Integration (CI) running for almost all of our projects for at least the backend code (Python mostly) and some of the projects also run the JavaScript tests in CI. A focus on Agile Principles while not being enslaved to them. A openness to changing our processes and using new technologies when those changes add value to Level 12 and/or our customers. If you’d like to learn more about what makes us tick, our Chief Executive Developer (CED) gave a talk on the importance of CI and automation in an agile software development process (video on our website) and has given other talks and presentations on various topics.
