About J. J. Keller and our Technology

Join our software development team to work with a large, agile team and continually advance your tech skill set with emerging technologies. Here at J. J. Keller, we build proprietary 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. We’re building native cloud robust solutions (web/mobile/IoT) from the ground up and providing technology-enabled outsourcing services to help our customers follow complex regulations. Our projects use the latest Microsoft tech stack, Microservices, CI/CD, Automated Testing, Cloud Architecture and Predictive Analytics/AI/ML. 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.

This is a new role being added to the team to focus on mobile development. We’ve embraced remote work for many years -- long before the pandemic – so you can work remote and feel confident in joining our remote culture.
