Senior Web Developer
Backend web developer and lead technical development for new and existing web applications / content management systems.
Responsible for the development and maintenance of the organization website. Work includes a variety of web development projects, improving functionality, accessibility, quality assurance, and web data / analytics. I also troubleshoot programing issues and perform system / security updates. I work with a team of other developers, content / media specialist, and IT professionals. A good day is being able to help my internal team solve issues or working on projects to help extended departments.
Here's the first step for college students
Build up experience as a freelancer, intern, or volunteer your services. Getting out there in the community and providing your services can open opportunities in the workforce.
