Want to be on the leading edge? Want to be part of a young, rapidly growing, privately held company where innovation is more than a buzzword? Where focus on high quality client experience and value creation is what it's all about. If flexible hours, the "work hard – play hard" atmosphere of a new `Google­like' office and the absence of the stiff downtown glass tower appeals to you, then consider joining our team!

• You have no boss, but a mentor and guru, that guides you to master your skills and will expect you to outshine him/her in the future.
• You work hard yet you find time to rejuvenate in your workplace.
• You love quality, yet you do not fall for the shining superficial stuff that pretends to be better.
• Your passion, outgoing personality and self motivation define who you are.
• You are curious, creative, biased for action and love solving problems.
• You don't assume that you are the best and have humility to learn from others.
• You see the world as a set of mathematical equations.
