CULTURE REQUIREMENTS:
- Engineers, Analysts, and Developers at Cintel, Inc. are highly motivated, technical, and self-organized. We place a lot of trust in our team members to develop technical solutions for ill-defined problems (i.e. thrive in an environment where the problem is vague, requirements are lacking, and a solution is not obvious). We need problem solvers.
- We want our team members to be self-motivated and eager to learn new skills. If you consider yourself a jack-of-all-trades, and are eager to keep up with the latest trends in technology, you'll fit right in.
