Object Mentor Group Picture

 

Object Mentor Inc. is growing to meet the needs of our customers.
Right now, we're looking for:

  • top-notch, experienced mentors
  • senior software engineers
  • junior software engineers

 

Unique Working Environment

At Object Mentor, we offer our employees a unique working environment. Our mentors spend about half their time "on the road" consulting or teaching customers. While that amount of travel may sound onerous, the other half of their time is spent "working at home" designing software or writing publications. Due to the "virtual" nature of the environment, our employees typically communicate with each other via email, fax, phone or conferencing software.

 

Here are some of the things you'll wind up doing:

  • Consulting with our customer's design teams
  • Coaching customers in Agile and Extreme Programming practices
  • Teaching classes at customer sites
  • Teaching public classes
  • Speaking at conferences and trade shows
  • Reviewing designs, schedules, and plans
  • Designing subsystems for our customers
  • Implementing subsystems for our customers
  • Taking on whole projects
  • Reviewing articles for magazines, and conferences
  • Publishing books, articles and other publications
  • Working with Agile and Extreme Programming, software engineering, C#, C++, Java, other object-oriented languages, web systems, embedded systems, real-time systems, database design, mathematical modeling, multi-threaded processing and distributed processing
  • Traveling half of your time and working at home half your time
    (i.e. one week of travel followed by one week at home with no travel on weekends)
  • Communicating in a virtual environment via email, fax, phone and conference software

 

In addition, Object Mentor offers all of its employees the following benefits:

  • Health Insurance
  • Dental Insurance
  • Vision Insurance
  • Life and Disability Insurance
  • Section 125
