We use cutting edge project practices and our testers and information developers are integrated with the development team.
We’re building a new software product line using pioneering practices and technologies, such as:
- Test-driven development
- Continuous integration

Who we’re looking for || Dovetail Software is staffing a team for an innovative software project. We’re looking for junior- to mid-level software developers with demonstrable C# (preferably .NET 2.0 or later) and HTML/CSS experience (not necessarily ASP.NET, just web development in general). Any experience with test-driven development or automated unit testing in general is a huge plus. Also, participation in the community (attendance of events, avid blog reader + commenter, or maybe you even have a blog yourself) will put you firmly in the running for this position. We’re looking for people that believe learning and continuous improvement are primary responsibilities of a software developer. We’re hiring motivated people for a terrific opportunity with a team of recognized .NET and agile community leaders. If you’re not looking to rocket your knowledge and experience fast, please do not apply!
Our development methodology || We are an Agile shop (Scrum/XP, Kanban for tracking). We work without iterations in a continuous stream of development with frequent releases — not long crushing release cycles. We have a collaborative relationship with our customers. We write tests before we write functional code to clarify our design intentions. We keep the build clean. We work in an environment that maximizes communication to minimize the volume of spec documents. We build software that can effectively respond to change. We use open source tools where appropriate, and Microsoft tools where they make sense. We have executive support and visibility all the way up to the owner of the company.
