A successful freelance developer would be able to speak on a non-technical level with business leads and work independently as Balsam Brands’ primary technical resource supporting the application without other technical assistance.

This is estimated at 25-30 hours/week.
While Balsam Brands is located in the Bay Area, developers who are based in other parts of the United States are welcome to apply. We are very open to working remotely with the freelance developer as long as the individual has a proven track record of effectively working remotely with team members or clients. More detailed information about the software application will be provided to candidates during the interview process.
Key Responsibilities:
- Develop and maintain a Windows-based software application that supports critical functions within our Operations team
- Translate business needs into technical requirements
