  • Work closely with the product team to ensure the prototype meets the product requirements
  • Work with business units to develop efficient, easy-to-implement interfaces

Desired Qualifications

  • 2+ years experience in development of web based systems
  • Familiarity/experience with Dreamweaver desireable but not required
  • HTML, ASP, CSS and experience required
