Technology: Jobs Landed

I work alongside the interactive marketing specialist to create effective and unique online marketing strategies. Managing and updating our various clients’ social media platforms, including Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn, with content is a daily task. Additionally, I generate keyword driven content, including blogs, and optimize them throughout client websites. I don't look at it as work because of how much fun and enjoyment I get out of it. Core3 is a great company to work for - everyone is hard working and dedicated, but most of all we have fun and love what we do.

I was very excited to have the opportunity to interview with CIBER. I found the position posted on LinkedIn and had my fingers crossed since my recruiting background was not in IT. I was very blessed to have received an offer and excited to start a new recruiting adventure! As a recruiter with CIBER I work on a team with twenty plus recruiters across the US. I am responsible for recruiting top notch IT professionals across a wide range of areas in the Technology industry. My job involves a lot more than waiting for someone to apply to a job posting. If I want to be successful, I need to go out and find the talent CIBER is looking for. I love what I do; it is a challenge, it is competitive and I get to meet new people every day. It is a great feeling when I match a candidate to their career!

I chose to work for CIBER because the company is growing, the office environment is cool, it is global, and it is full of innovative, talented, hard working fun people. At CIBER initiative, creativity and hard work will take an employee as far as we want to go! The company encourages new ideas, new approaches, and new abilities and believes an entrepreneurial atmosphere is a part of what makes a company a highly motivating place to work. It is never boring here!  Luckily, CIBER has an office in Southfield; I am a huge advocate of rebuilding Detroit and have no desire to leave Michigan anytime soon. There is so much going on in the city of Detroit right now and Michigan is an absolutely beautiful state.

As Content Coordinator at Ingenex, I am developing and implementing new online content. I work to expand the social media presence for the Internet marketing firm and its clients. Additionally, I help drive the strategic direction and create up-to-the-minute, relevant content for HashtagsForLife, Internet inspiration in the form of #hashtags brought to you by Ingenex Digital Marketing.

As Project Coordinator at Ingenex Digital, I am in charge of making sure all projects are kept moving forward in a timely and organized manner, keeping clients updated on a continual basis. I work directly with clients to promote long-term relationships and ensure customer satisfaction, while networking with prospects to establish new business.

I also assist in organizing events and volunteers for LA2M, a 501c3 educational marketing non-profit dedicated to keeping professionals updated on the latest ideas and appeal in the marketing world. I help create a weekly newsletter sent to members, while organizing speakers for each presentation. Furthermore, I pitch in with content creation for Ingenex, writing press releases and articles when necessary.

I am a sales engineer. I sell prototype castings to manufacturing companies that are looking for prototypes to test their initial designs. We also do a great deal of low volume production/one-off work for research & design companies. The position is suiting, because it is a good mix technical engineering and direct sales/account management with the customers. I love my job, but it is not for everyone. I work with a great group of individuals and the incentives are great. This particular position that I am in is a great opportunity to work in multiple industries (automotive, aviation, aerospace, energy, agriculture), in addition to a mix of time in and out of the office. My situation couldn't have worked out better… I am close to family and I get to see all four seasons.  We are looking to hire more CAD designers and sales people in our Ann Arbor office later this year.

I write software to fulfill the needs of our clients. This sounds fairly straight forward, but it is usually a complicated process. There are two big challenges here, we need to figure out exactly what the customer needs and then actually realize these needs in software. Software development goes through cycles in which we create working software that we can show to the client who will then critique. There are many parts of the software that may be critiqued at this point, including the performance, the usability, or just a misunderstanding of a requirement. I am involved in all of these areas, so a day can be fairly diverse for me.

I find my work incredibly satisfying and fulfilling. A piece of software is like opening a very hard jigsaw puzzle and putting it together. Each piece that is put into place gives a large sense of accomplishment. I am also constantly learning. Our customers come from a variety of backgrounds, so we get to learn about many different fields which is pretty awesome. I also need to stay as up to date on current trends in the software industry so that SRT can remain competitive. I love my job, and consistently feel lucky to have found such a great place to work.

At SRT Solutions we build software to solve a client's specific problems. The challenges we face at SRT while developing software are always interesting and I work in a great team. At SRT we have expertise in many development frameworks and programming languages and we're constantly keeping up to date and learning the latest and greatest technology. This lends to being a very agile team that can tackle any problem we're faced with while developing.

I interned remotely for SRT while attending school at Michigan Tech during the school year. While home from school I interned in the office at SRT full time. Interning at SRT taught me a great amount and enabled me to meet people in my field I may have not met otherwise. SRT is very active in the developer community in Ann Arbor and the surrounding areas and even hosts many events in the office each month. Being located in downtown Ann Arbor is great as well, it's a very fun and active area and there's always something going on.

I've been at SRT full time as an employee for 9 months now and I'm still thrilled to go into work every day. I love my job and I feel extremely lucky to work at such a great place with so many amazing developers.

As a software consultant at SRT Solutions, I write software that solves a wide range of challenging problems for our clients. I’m fortunate to be a part of a team of smart, passionate software developers that genuinely enjoy their work. Getting to be a part of a team of so many fun and thought provoking people is probably the thing that I like the most about my job. Not only do my coworkers hone my technical skills, but the contacts that I’ve made through SRT have led to opportunities that I simply wouldn’t have had if I worked elsewhere.

As as student at the University of Michigan, I grew to enjoy the combination of big city and small town that Ann Arbor provides, and as a lifelong Michigander, I had a strong preference to stay in the area after graduation. I had offers from a few local companies, but SRT Solutions’ blend of a fun work environment, downtown location, interesting challenges, and potential for career development eventually won me over.

A few years later, I have no regrets with my decision to work at SRT or to stay in Michigan. Working downtown is a cool way to stay connected to the city, and living in Ann Arbor has been a great fit for me as well. I’m excited to continue my adventures in Ann Arbor, and I'm looking forward to finding out what the future holds for me!

I joined HP Enterprise Services (formerly EDS) out of college working as a project analyst for our largest client,  General Motors.  In 2009, I transitioned to HP’s Consulting Services organization in the leveraged services group Project Management Delivery (PMD) team.  Leveraged teams provide  certain services / resources to different client’s / accounts in HP wherever their particular skills are needed.  When client accounts need PM’s to manage a new project, a PM will lead a project & work with that client for until the project has been completed and then begin working on a new project with, perhaps, a different client that requires their services.  
 
Since then, I have been a PM assigned to projects on a Life Sciences (Healthcare) account and oversee the account’s Project Management Office (PMO).  The PMO monitors, oversees, and provides tools / support for all of the 30 or so projects that are occurring for our client on the account at any given time.
 
I was drawn to a career with project management because of my Organizational Studies major in college and, particularly, enjoy projects in the life sciences industry because of its complexity, breadth, and growth.  Every day is different and each project I manage provides a different set of challenges to overcome and many new learning opportunities.  With every project I manage, I also work day-to-day with a  new of people, often located across the globe.  It is very satisfying running the PMO for the account; I work with other PM’s to determine what tools, systems, and process improvements the account can create and implement provide better service to our client and support our projects being  completed successfully and effectively.   Because of HP’s size & global presence, I am able to work from the comfort of my home while interacting with coworkers and clients all over the world.

In my current position as Senior Billing Specialist & Wireless Consultant, I have a myriad of responsibilities.  To name a few, I am responsible for resolving client concerns and issues, relative to billing inquiries.  I perform all facets of tier-one level tech support and troubleshooting for all mobile devices offered.  I am responsible for updating and modifying customer accounts and providing accurate and correct information, as it relates to processing service activations, ESN changes, equipment replacement, and price plan changes and upgrades.  I also facilitate matching data solutions, products and services to clients through development of wireless communication solutions, assisting potential and existing clients in the purchase of equipment and services and with initiating follow-up contact with clients to ensure complete satisfaction with all products and services.

I co-founded CORE Expense with my two partners - Munaf Assaf (our CTO) and Brandon Darling (COO).  While Munaf handles technical development and Brandon oversees day-to-day operations, I act as the public face of things - handling PR, investment pitches, investor relations, and major client sales calls.  We all coordinate for overall strategy and direction of the company.

I solve business problems through project-based consulting, software engineering, web design, streaming video, and social media.

I am the owner of Proactive Technology & Grosse Pointe Geek & Bigmingham Geek.  I manage networks for small businesses in Michigan, Illinois, and New Jersey. 

I currently manage an iPhone application (TheWedLink) where I am involved with the vendors directly in order to get them on the iPhone application. The app consist of cities from coast to coast in the United States, with the potential to grow overseas targeting a niche market in the wedding industry allowing videographers, photographers, venues, catering and over services in the industry to easily market themselves to recently engaged couples. Utilizing the iPhone as an easy wedding planning tool, makes this a very exciting product for couples to use, and is going to mainstream as one of the premier wedding applications. It is very exciting to see the growth and potential as the vendors and cities listing continue to grow. You can also follow us on twitter, by simply searching TheWedLink. The app can be downloaded for free on your iPhone today!

I work with a talented sales force to increase sales, and build great customer relations with our representatives. I have the ability to deal with many types of people in any situation. I am responsible for working with new and previous customers to minimize training time for their new and old employees and ability to maximize presentations for their potential clients. I really love my job! This is not your normal everyday workplace.
