Job Summary
We're seeking a thoughtful, collaborative engineer to join our team and help us design, develop, and maintain a comprehensive financial forecasting and grant management application used by grant holders and administrators across the university. This web-based tool supports projected and actual expense tracking, what-if scenario modeling, employee and fund distribution management, automated salary and benefits calculations, burn rate analysis, and forward financial projections using integrated data feeds from university financial and HR systems.
You will join a small, collaborative team of software engineers and QA engineers working within an Agile environment. Work will include maintaining and evolving an existing legacy application while contributing to decisions about the system's long-term technical direction. The current system is a server-rendered PHP application that is largely procedural, with a front end built using JavaScript and jQuery UI, backed by a relational database following common MySQL patterns. This existing stack reflects where the application is today, not necessarily where it is headed, and you will have a meaningful opportunity to help shape its modernization direction.
This is a 3-year term position.
CU is an Equal Opportunity Employer and complies with all applicable federal, state, and local laws governing nondiscrimination in employment. We are committed to creating a workplace where all individuals are treated with respect and dignity, and we encourage individuals from all backgrounds to apply, including protected veterans and individuals with disabilities.
