Senior Web Developer

BPAS is looking for an energetic, vision-oriented senior web developer to join our company to help us write future chapters of our defined contribution plan and mobile app user experience. This platform currently services approximately 4,000 clients and 500,000 plan participants in total.

The major focus for this role will be to drive the evolution of the participant, plan sponsor and advisor websites over time, which are coded in .Net, and our BPAS University mobile app (responsive design using the same code set as websites, not a standalone app). The senior web developer’s responsibilities would be to:

· Thoroughly review current sites and their functionality now

· Review competitor sites for trends and best practices

· Work with our sales and marketing and communication teams to survey and interview clients and partners to obtain feedback on the sites, including live user experiences

· Maintain a list of all enhancement requests, categorized into new technology or features, added efficiencies, security or regulatory / compliance initiatives and urgency / value for the business

· Develop a roadmap / schedule of future enhancements, conferring with senior management to set priorities and timing.

· Then manage the team that will implement each phase of enhancements, including our six person BA team and programming team for coding, testing, documentation and QA in test environment before new versions are deployed

· Ensure proper documentation, version management and QC review of all new enhancements

· Ensure monthly / bimonthly rollout of new features and versions over time

· Help us differentiate our firm with exciting technology and a highly optimized user experience with frequent new rollouts of features over time

· The role may also involve hiring and managing a team of coders who will create and deliver continuous enhancements to the websites (to be determined), so expertise and comfort level in this area will be a tremendous plus. Could also include bringing a small team of coders with you.

The role will include communicating with peers and external parties, working with a team of designers and content writers, and assisting with recruitment and training of all others on the BA team. Strong communication skills, ability to handle deadlines and manage costs are also valuable attributes for this role. To be successful as a senior web developer, you should be innovative and demonstrate a passion for technology. Outstanding candidates are deadline-driven self-starters with superb communication and project management skills.

Senior Web Developer Requirements:

· Degree in computer science, IT, or similar.

· 3-5 years of experience in web development.

· Experience in .net and similar applications

· Experience with wireframe and diagnostic tools.

· Leadership and management skills.

· Excellent customer service and research abilities.

· Willingness to work overtime when required.

· Superb interpersonal, and written and verbal communication skills.

For the right individual, this position could be performed remotely (work from home) in the Eastern or Central time zone, with full use of ZOOM and other technology, with the expectation of traveling for 1 or 2 nights a month. BPAS also has thirteen offices nationally; one of these offices could be a work location if desired (see www.bpas.com for complete list).

Seeking to fill this role quickly, but will vet thoroughly for the best candidate who can become a long term contributor at our firm.
