General

In this project, Software Factory will collaborate with Tellybean, a Helsinki-based startup that is developing an Android-based video-call system which connects to any TV. The Software Factory will help solve Tellybean's needs for device management, particularly continuous deployment of new software versions. Read more about Tellybean at http://tellybean.com/

We are looking for eager students who want to learn about Cloud technologies, continuous deployment, and how to structure projects to iteratively find the right solution to a business-level problem. Apart from core programming skills, this project needs a team with a diverse set of skills, including documentation, project management, architecture, security, and quality. If you can contribute to any of these, please apply!

Admission to the course is based on an online interview form. More information will be sent after registering.
