Vermont IT Jobs: Web Application Developer in Middlebury (great company to work for!)

This a job with one of my mentoring clients, Co-Operative Insurance. I absolutely love going to their office and working with these people. It’s a small team in a large company. Nice, friendly folks. And it’s in Middlebury which is a great place to work.

Web Application Development

Excellent opportunity for a qualified programmer with web application design, development, and implementation experience!

Work on the complete product development lifecycle of our B2B extranet, including requirements gathering, technical design specification creation, coding, testing, deployment, post-production support, documentation and maintenance.

Must have 2-5 years’ development experience with Visual Studio 2003/2005 as well as JavaScript, (X)HTML, ASP.net, VB.net and XML. Pluses include insurance industry knowledge and experience with CSS and with version control software such as SourceSafe or Vault. Solid UI design skills get you multiple pluses.

To join our hard-working, fun IS team in producing quality apps, you must be an organized, self-motivating team player, an excellent communicator and attentive to detail. You must be willing and able to work both independently and with a team, depending on the assignment.

Co-operative Insurance Companies is a $50 million property and casualty insurer in VT and NH.  We offer a competitive benefits package and a schedule that allows for work/life balance.

For immediate consideration, please forward a copy of your resume to jobs@ciui.net.

Mark Mullin on WCF & SOA at Vermont .NET tonight

We are really looking forward to this talk by Mark Mullin tonight at VTdotNET!

We also have some great WCF books to give away: Learning WCF by Michele Leroux Bustamante (thanks OReilly and INETA) and Pro WCF: Practical Microsoft SOA Implementation from APress.

Thanks to Infragistics, we will be raffling off two licenses to NetAdvantage for .NET. One of the raffles will actually be a fund-raising raffle.

We also have shirts and swag courtesy of CodeZone and piles of CoDe Magazine and aspnetPRO to give away.

And thanks to Verio’s sponsorship of INETA, I am able to offer Verio’s free webhosting to Vermont .NET members who show up at the meeting tonight.

Since it’s such a nice day (and I have just absolutely NO work to do ;-)), and Mark is being so generous with his time (driving up from New Hampshire) and cash (there’s gas $ and hotel involved), I am going to take him on a 1.5 hour cruise on Lake Champlain aboard the Spirit of the Ethan Allen this afternoon. Hey, running a user group is HARD work, y’know?
