Description
Summary
TSYS International Distributed Products & Services is a fast growing division of TSYS based in Columbus (and Kennesaw), Georgia. We have a creative team of people who are motivated by technology, love to code, thrive on a rapid pace and enjoy working together. We also enjoy a culture of ownership in each project and the satisfaction of producing high quality and innovative solutions.
We’re currently looking for senior developers who have a passion for designing and building new applications and working with conventional as well as emerging technologies. We place heavy focus on recruiting only those who enjoy writing code, can express technical opinions, solve problems and can contribute to our common vision to maintain our significant lead in the marketplace for self-service web based application(s) and payment based financial services.
From technical standpoint, our emphasis is on building applications that are simple, clean and represent the letter and spirit of “lightweight application architecture”. Our technical environment is diverse, employing both conventional and emerging technologies such as Java 5/6, JQuery, Struts, Spring/Spring MVC, Ant, and Oracle. Likewise, we don’t employ certain technologies that we feel are heavy and create unnecessary complexity.
Responsibilities

- Collaborate with members of the design team – both technical as well as business owners - to identify requirements and develop new products or extensions to existing products. Our environment is open and agile with a focus on both design and delivery.

In addition, candidates must be comfortable working across diverse applications including web interfaces, real-time systems and batch applications.
- Must exhibit high personal standards and design practices for developing applications and components that are clean, cohesive, decoupled and configurable. Candidates must be comfortable providing unit tests and documentation (in the code and outside of it) with each solution.
- Determine flaws in existing applications/designs and propose alternatives. Must be able to quickly identify the source of bugs, for example, and resolve them in the proper way
- Must exhibit a solid understanding of conventional development platforms, tools and concepts including Java/JEE, Oracle/RDBMS, JDBC/ORM, Transaction management, aspect oriented development, Struts, Web Services/API development, real-time applications/concurrency. Candidates must also be able to absorb new ideas and technologies quickly and must be able to apply these technologies to a problem domain in a way that is both practical and reflects best practices.
- Must be comfortable working in an agile environment and using tools like JIRA to track and communicate the status of tasks.
- Candidates must be efficient and productive with common development tools and environments such as Eclipse IDE, Ant, JBoss/Tomcat, VSS and relational databases, such as Oracle. Must exhibit the ability to configure your local machine and work independently.
- Candidate must exhibit excellent written and verbal communication. Ability to discuss business requirements and articulate complex technical concepts is an absolute necessity. In addition, candidates must be able to provide documentation of their development work that can be used by other members of the team.
