Would you like the opportunity to learn new technologies, help customers with a successful launch, work across a diverse set of industries, or assist with rolling out modern DevOps processes?\u202f Well, if your focus is on application development, then the role of an Application Development Manager (ADM) in our Developer Support practice might be perfect for you.<\/p>\n

Learning\u2026it never ends!\u202f We are valued for being \u201clearn-it-alls\u201d and embracing a growth mindset!\u202f In fact, besides the organic insatiable appetite ADMs have for learning, it\u2019s part of our job responsibilities and commitments– choosing from a large variety of topics each year as part of our technical readiness.\u202f This learning mentality comes from the top of the company, with our CEO Satya reminding us that \u201cwe\u2019re aspiring to have a living, learning culture with growth mindset that allows us to learn from ourselves and our customers\u201d.<\/p>\n

Helping customers to be successful is at our core.\u202f Our mission is to \u201dEmpower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more\u201d, and we do that by being customer-obsessed.\u202f As an ADM, I\u2019ve had the pleasure of working with customers who challenge me every day with questions that test my knowledge and experience, my ability to learn, my ability to research, and almost paramount, my ability to network amongst the vast expert resources in our consulting, support engineering, and product management teams.\u202f I\u2019ve experienced the excitement of working with customers who have ultimate technology responsibility for our election processes, others who are changing the status quo of some industries, and others who are pushing through their digital transformation \u2013 to places where they never anticipated they\u2019d be from a technology perspective. In a nutshell, our jobs require that our customers see us as their knowledgeable advocates and trusted advisors to help them achieve their goals.<\/p>\n
