About J. J. Keller and our Technology

Join our software engineering team at J. J. Keller, as we build technology that helps employers protect people and the businesses they run. With more than 7 million employers in this country, the need for our safety and compliance solutions is always growing. At J. J. Keller, we’re building native cloud robust solutions (web/mobile/IoT) from the ground up. Our projects use the latest Microsoft tech stack, Microservices, CI/CD, Automated Testing, OCR, Cognitive Search, Cloud Architecture and Predictive Analytics/AI/ML using tools like DataIKU and Hadoop.

The 200+ developers on our team are here because they are passionate about technology, growing their skills and doing meaningful work. We strive to keep current with emerging technologies and to prevent our existing platforms from slipping into the dreaded “legacy applications” category. This means we’re continually evolving our technology footprint to provide a better, more intuitive user experience for our customers.

We’ve embraced remote work for many years -- long before the pandemic – so you can live anywhere in the U.S. and feel confident in joining our remote culture.

In this role, you'll be doing mobile development in native iOS (using Xcode and Objective-C) or Android (using Android Studio and Java).
