Full Stack Web Development

The job of Web Developers is to plan, build, test and maintain internet sites and applications. Some relevant part of their work is customer-oriented: either when designing new applications or when suggesting improvements in existent projects. This work-relationship can be very delicate and requires a broad view of the market, business management processes, marketing, and other necessary skills.

A developer needs to master several technologies and in different layers. Let's take a brief look at some of them:

In the presentation layer, we have HTML, CSS, and Javascript as required technologies. They should also be familiar with other optional technologies such as Actionscripting (Flash), Silverlight, among others. Knowing HTML and CSS is the minimum possible hard skill to have in order to start being effectively productive in Secure Group

In the business rule layer, the PHP language and ASP.NET technology are the starting points. There are, however, several technologies such as JSP, ColdFusion, Ruby on Rails, CGI, among others that can be very useful as well. Of course, to master any of these languages ​​it's required knowledge of programming logic in order to minimize time and effort and maximize results.

In the data layer, knowledge of the SQL language and some of the most commonly used databases on the web, such as MySQL and SQL Server, is indispensable.

In order to progress in our development path and Level Up or Step Up, our Web Developers must:

• Meet the criteria of the Level & Step Chart for the chosen path (Individual Contributors Path or Management Path)
• Score at least a grade 4 in the KAI of the position in order to reach Level 3.

Secure Group Knowledge

The first item we require proficiency regarding our company is the Secure Group Management Model (yes, the content in this wiki!). Besides that, we also need our employees to understand our products in all aspects as described in the following table:

Secure Group Knowledge	What's Expected	Impact	Product	Minimum Grade
User Documentation	Good, user-level knowledge regarding the product and its functionalities. From the user documentation, all employees across the company are required to be well aware of our solutions’ core features and functions such as the Password Advisor or how to send an automatic crash report.	This knowledge helps us facilitate a user-centric approach internally, which we believe is essential to develop our business and solutions. The user documentation helps team members understand user behavior and needs more thoroughly and feel the impact of their everyday efforts.	Secure OS	4

Sales Documentation	Employees should gain significant knowledge regarding the business side of Secure Group. They need to be aware of commonly used concepts in our day-to-day activities such as our business and distribution model, value proposition, selling prices, key selling points, and target audience.	The information in the Sales Documentation supports employees in their daily routine. It conveys the overall business vision within the company. This documentation contributes to making employees aware of how our solutions are distributed, who are our key partners and target market to know exactly the people towards whom team members’ efforts should be aimed. Alignment on company-wide priorities is also achieved through clear communication of our value proposition and key selling points, helping everyone understand the things that matter most.	Secure OS	3

Support Documentation	People within the company need to be aware of commonly occurring problems with our solutions. From the Support Documentation, employees should also extract general level knowledge regarding support processes, the issues that we’re currently having product-wise, and the approach to troubleshooting them.	The Support Documentation helps employees understand short-term priorities more clearly and communicate more openly why they’re needed. It also gives them general knowledge of how to spot and report a problem, which helps us facilitate a company-wide contribution to product development. Last but by no means least, it helps team members understand customers' pains and behavioral patterns to strengthen our user-centric approach.	Secure OS	3

Functional Documentation	Through the Functional Documentation, employees should get a thorough understanding of the solutions and their multiple features. People that work closely with the products must understand exactly how they function, how users interact with them, how to configure different settings, and what’s the expected behavior of different software solutions.	The information in the Functional Documentation helps employees whose work is closely connected with our solutions, to gain significant in-depth knowledge into their functionalities that far exceeds users‘ understanding. Such thorough product expertise helps us remain objective, evaluate market data more adequately, and constantly increase our internal expertise.	Secure OS	4
