The e123 SaaS platform is a wide-ranging application built in ColdFusion. Clients in the insurance space use the platform for enrollment, policy administration, billing and numerous other functions.

The Application Developer works on updating the platform to incorporate new integrations for clients and carriers, extends the existing functionality, adds flexibility and choice to the platform and fixes any bugs that our clients may experience. You will work from tickets that outline the specifics of each task and work to understand those requirements.
