Position: .Net Software Developer

Location: Onsite/Toronto

Job ID#: RQ10004

Duration: 12 Months

Overview

The
Intermediate Software Developer is required to work on a number of initiatives
across the various business areas supported by the branch.

The SHSM
program requires annual sustainment through reoccurring digital solutions
maintenance and enhancements, as well as continuous support through software
development, project and requirement management, and software testing. This IT
support for the SHSM program officially began in 2011 and has been continued
since. Ongoing and significant investments have been made in the delivery of
the digital solution for the SHSM program. The digital solution is currently
being used by SAD for analysis and management of the SHSM program.

Without the
existing online program management tool, EDU’s ability to provide key metrics
will be impacted and the program will have to be managed manually. This
disruption will introduce significant delays in reporting and hinder effective
and timely decision making. This role will also support other SAD initiatives
including Dual Credits and Math Achievement Action Plan (MAAP).

The successful
candidate will work directly with the business to understand and define their
requirements and processes, as well as understanding their future data needs.
They will also work with various technology teams to translate business needs
and work through the analysis and development phases. The assignment entails
working with managers, team leads, program analysts, and subject matter experts
within the business ministry and Community Services I&IT Cluster throughout
the engagement.
