US

The Technology Development Group at NYU School of Law is a small, versatile, full stack development team. The vast majority of our development is in C#/.NET, with additional projects in PHP (Laravel) … both using Vue as our front-end framework.

Our group develops and supports the school’s website (Drupal), micro sites (usually WordPress), reporting, and administrative applications (both internal and public). We’ve been known to divert our energies towards improving our supporting infrastructure, and now run many of our services using Docker/Kubernetes/Terraform, and that only as part of our growing AWS presence. We’re usually getting ourselves into trouble with interesting projects.

YOU

We’re looking to add a developer who is flexible enough to code across different environments. Maybe you have experience in another language and are looking to switch it up. You’re already good, but want to be better … and you want to learn new things and grow. Regardless, have an opinion, because we genuinely want to hear it!
