Glyph Language Services is a rapidly growing language, technology and media company. Glyph is currently seeking a highly motivated and responsible individual whose primary duties are related to helping support a new contract to localize and host multiple high profile websites for the US government.



This individual should be an overall strong technologist, both as a software development engineer as well as general tech support, who enjoys variety and challenge in his/her daily tasks. The position will entail developing and maintaining systems to detect changes on certain websites and generate work orders that will propagate these changes to localized versions of the sites.



Along with this primary duty, the individual will be expected to help provide general software development and tech support for all of Glyph's operations. This can include configuring servers, networks and installing software for PMs. As a developer, Glyph has ongoing projects involving internal project management systems (HTML5, AJAX, Java Servlets, MySQL), writing parsers for clients (Python) and integrating these with 3rd party online services.



This individual must be fully committed to going the extra mile when necessary to deliver for our government clients. This position is not expected to be one of continual crisis, but when one happens you will be the first, last and only (along with all the rest of us) line of defense -- so be prepared. We like to have a normal life too, so we will work hard in making the situation as regular as possible.



The ideal candidate will be able to also work at home as well as at the office and be mature enough to proactively coordinate with remote team members and management. This individual is expected to be continually learning about a broad range of technologies and bring great ideas to the table about how to improve and grow our company.
