AlasConnect | Software Engineer 1 | $75,538 - $100,477 | Fairbanks - Anchorage - Palmer, Alaska | Onsite | Full-time

AlasConnect is a subsidiary of Matanuska Telephone Association, a telecommunications company which services part of southern Alaska. AlasConnect itself is a Managed Service Provider (generally Microsoft) and has offices and clients throughout the Fairbanks, Anchorage, and Palmer areas.

I run a small team of developers which supports and writes software for both companies. The MTA side has a bit of C#/.NET and is fairly enterprise-y, although various new projects are being written in Haskell as we standardize our tooling. On the AlasConnect side we are slowly gearing up to full time Haskell consulting and software development shop.

* Functional programming experience would be nice, but not required. Happy to train passionate people into Haskell.

* No internships. This is a mid-career position, so a few years of practical software engineering experience is required.

* We are not in a position to sponsor visas, and therefore can only consider people authorized to work in the US.

* Unfortunately onsite is a hard requirement at this time.

If you are interested the official position requirements and forms are listed at http://alasconnect.com/jobs.html under the Software Engineer 1 heading.

Please mail all applications/resumes to hr@alasconnect.com

If you have any questions or concerns before applying you can contact me directly at bcj@alasconnect.com (Brian).
