Java development of online tools used by research professionals to create and publish equity research.
Front-end application infrastructure (integrating a content management system, search engine, e-mail alerts, etc.,
into our applications; maintaining and enhancing the architecture we use for content presentation, Web site
navigation, etc.).
Performance analysis and optimization of existing systems.
User interface design and usability testing; implementation of usability enhancements to our applications.

excellent writing skills, and the ability to ?think like a user?).
