About the Career
Technology--it literally changes on a day-to-day
basis, exploding with new and innovative ideas
that change the way we live our lives. In the past,
computer programmers developed applications
that ran on desktop or mainframe systems, such
as inventory, billing, or payroll systems. Today,
these technologies have been enhanced and
modified so that they are available to an entirely
new group of users--those of the World Wide
Web. A Web and Software Developer is
responsible for analyzing user needs, designing
systems based upon those needs, using
programming languages such as VB.NET or Java
to develop these sytems, and testing and
maintaining these systems to ensure a positive
user experirence.
If the idea of working in a fast-paced
environment, where new and innovative ideas are
not only welcomed but necessary, a career as a
Web and Software Developer may be for you.
