Java Software Developer

The Ohio State University

The Ohio State University Center for IT Innovations in Healthcare (CITIH) is seeking innovative software developers to join our team in support of our mission. We are seeking candidates across the full spectrum of software development expertise, from fresh college graduates eager to learn to experienced senior developers. You can learn more about CITIH at here.

Our software development team collaborates with biomedical subject matter experts to obtain a problem definition and develop requirements. Our team members collaboratively investigate and apply leading-edge technologies (e.g., semantic web), architectural styles (e.g., SOA) and algorithms (e.g., semantic reasoning), and security practices (e.g., web services security) to develop novel information systems that address project requirements. Our software is developed in collaboration with partners and adopters and as a result is open source.

We also participate extensively in disseminating CITIH’s novel platforms at biomedical informatics conferences around the world. Our software development language of choice is Java. We practice agile development methodologies and test heavily to produce production-quality software. A strong candidate should possess knowledge of service-oriented architecture and web services, a strong foundation in CS concepts (data structures, synchronization, networking, UML and design patterns), and have demonstrated best-practice Java software development experience.

We are currently seeking developers who have impressive experience and strong interest in any of the following focus areas:

• Web services standards (WS-*) and open-source implementations

• Open-source enterprise service bus (ESB) technology

• Service-oriented architecture (SOA)

• RESTful web services

• Web application development with an emphasis on creating intuitive user interfaces

• Quality assurance, testing, and support.

Please send your resume to CITIH and indicate the aforementioned applicable focus areas in your subject line. In your e-mail, please include a cover letter that explicitly states educational coursework, certifications, project experience, and level of interest in the aforementioned focus areas.
