Hello, I'm   Jason

On Wednesday, I opened my inbox to find this:

Microsoft Ignite registration is now open. The website is currently very slow as registration for the virtual event is required.

I’m hiring a Junior Web Developer for our growing team. This position is for biBerk, a direct insurance company. We’re looking for someone interested in writing clean and efficient HTML and CSS. This individual will help to maintain our Content Management System, Intranet, and will gain experience in other areas of the business. While experience with TypeScript, JavaScript, SASS, and CMS systems are preferred, it’s not required. As with all of our positions, this position also offers opportunities for growth.

I’ve posted numerous times before about the 9/11 tragic events. Please take time to remember those that have lost their lives in the events of September 11, 2001.

Last year, we had to cancel TechBash 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Unfortunately, this year is no different. Due to the increase in positive cases in Pennsylvania and the continued threat and spread of the Delta variant, we’ve decided that it’s best to put safety first. We’re extremely disappointed in the fate of this year’s event but know we’ll be able to see you all in person soon enough. We’d prefer to be in an environment were there is little concern for spreading of the virus.

Windows 10 has a special mode that has been coined “GodMode”. This mode enables several features such as administrative tools, Internet options, network and sharing center options, power options, programs and features, troubleshooting, user accounts, and more.

I’m hiring a Quality Assurance Test Engineer for our growing team. This position is for biBerk, a direct insurance company. I’m looking for a QA Test Engineer who can demonstrate experience with both manual and automated testing. Anyone with experience in Test Automation Center (TAC), Selenium, SpecFlow, Gherkin, Postman, and other automated tools should apply. Many of our back office applications have either a Microsoft SQL server or Cosmos DB data store and either an ASP.NET MVC or Angular front end. As we continue to revamp our applications, we’re automating more and more tests as we move to continuous integration and deployment.
