More about this position.

I/O Technologies is a software development company based in Germantown, Wisconsin.  Established in 1994, our client base extends across the continental US.  We've now grown to the point where we need to hire yet another programmer.

The majority of our existing applications are written in C#, as well as Microsoft Visual Foxpro version and 9.0.  We also support several legacy applications written in VB, Vbscript, JavaScript, ASP and HTML--as well as a few legacy applications written by other developers in earlier versions (FPW 2.6, for example).

One of our specialties is developing interfaces to transfer data from dissimilar systems in a manner that is completely seamless and user-friendly. 

You must be able to assume pager duty once or twice per month.  This means that you would be on call from Friday evening through Monday morning and would need to be available to dial into client site(s) no more than 20 minutes from the time you receive a page.  The need may arise from time to time to visit client sites.  Depending on staff scheduling, you may be asked to work onsite for one of our larger clients.
