That's a tall order to fill, but if you fit the description, our client has some great stuff to offer:
• Opportunity. Can you help our client take their QA processes to the next level using the latest technologies?
• Exciting and diverse technology. Our client builds software for the web, for the phone, in the cloud, on premise, open-source, not open-source. You will not be bored, we assure you!
• Awesome work environment. Our client offers free snacks, free drinks, and a dedicated room for their Wii.
• Tremendous benefits. What could you do with 4 paid weeks off?
