Stay up to date and evaluate emerging technologies and development practices to identify how they might improve our systems.
Develop a deep understanding of the CoStar business, and how the technical work we are doing aligns with that strategy.

Significant, hands-on experience designing and implementing solutions using Amazon Web Services (AWS) services.
Experience modeling and implementing large-scale relational and NoSQL database systems.
