Technical Architect

Description

nvisia is not your typical software consulting company. We care about our people above all else, and they tend stick around. In fact, our President and both regional leaders began their careers with us as Software Developers. True story!

Here at nvisia we are creative problem-solvers with a shared desire to learn, grow, and work collaboratively to find solutions for our clients. As an nvisia team member you'll have the opportunity to grow your experience and knowledge with each client, working with various languages (new and old), legacy modernization, and more, across a wide variety of client engagements and industries.

Some companies claim to have award-winning cultures, but we have the actual trophies to back it up. We have proudly received the National Best & Brightest honor 10 years in a row, and the Local Best & Brightest Awards in both our Chicago and Milwaukee offices.

Our team members are passionate about their craft and are fully supported in their development. Every technologist has access to funds for training, classes, and conferences. We host community tech events where you can mingle with like-minded professionals. You'll find a clear path to growth here, with an established roadmap in place to help you gain the skills and expertise you need to advance.
