| Position Summary | This recruitment will be used to fill three part-time (a maximum of 20 hours per week) Student Developer CASS Software Development Group position for the School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at Oregon State University (OSU). The Center for Applied Systems and Software (CASS) exists as a student internship program. Hourly students are hired and trained by full-time developers or student managers, to perform computer development projects. Student jobs/internships average 1 to 3 years in length and most graduates are hired by technology companies. In addition to the technical and development skills students gain, they also learn how to work as a member of a team, gain an appreciation of the importance of deadlines, and other facets of running a business such as planning, budgeting, resource allocation, documentation, and communication. This position is responsible for reporting to work at a scheduled time and checking in with their CASS manager. This is a POOLED POSTING. That means it will stay open, and we will pull applicants from the “pool” for interviews as openings occur, until the closing date. |
| Position Duties | Self-directed – Student Developers are assigned one or two projects by full-time staff. They are then expected to complete work items related to that project – either self-selected or assigned to them – within a reasonable amount of time. Student Developers can also expect to use task-tracking software to report their progress on work items. Examples of work – Adding a new feature to an application, fixing a bug, updating documentation, or researching and making recommendations about a particular technology. Help is available and encouraged – In order to complete these work items, Student Developers are expected to seek help when it is needed, either from full-time staff, other student developers, student mentors in CASS, or from the internet. Work as a team – Student Developers operate in a team environment; they attend virtual and in-person meetings in order to report their progress, communicate issues that are blocking their progress, propose solutions to problems posed by stakeholders and other developers, and collaborate with CASS customers. For particularly difficult work items, Student Developers will pair-program with other Students or full-time Staff |
