With just a few lines of code, our software development kits (SDKs) and hosted solutions empower software engineers around the world to easily generate documents and enable viewing, markup, real-time collaboration, signing, and more in their customers’ enterprise applications, effectively replacing the need for paper processes.

What You'll Do...

We’re looking to hire a .NET Developer to join our team working on PSPDFKit for Windows and the PSPDFKit Library for .NET.

• Take responsibility for delivering new features and bug fixes from the design phase to launch as part of a small, driven team
• Write readable and well-documented code with meaningful tests so that we can ship new releases often and without fear
• Manage your work by setting your own goals, prioritizing and executing them, and ultimately taking ownership of tasks and projects
• Support our customers in integrating our products, help them debug and resolve issues, and collaborate with them to understand their use cases and requirements for our products
• Collaboratively plan the product direction for 2 quarters in advance with a mixture of concrete objectives and more general goals, both long-term and short term using Slack, Basecamp, GitHub, and Zoom

This position has direct involvement with the design, architecture and development of our Windows SDK. We believe in hiring people who are eager to solve problems and not just execute work they are given without thinking critically and understanding the root of the problem trying to be solved.
