FAST Introduction

Fast Enterprises is a provider of essential software and services for citizens and government. In 1998, we changed the way government revenue agencies support their business with the introduction of GenTax®. We have expanded beyond Tax and now also perform implementations for Motor Vehicle, Driver License, Unemployment Insurance, and Child Support Engagement agencies.

Your FAST career has a meaningful and lasting social impact. 

Much of the work at FAST happens on our client sites as part of our product implementations. Individuals who understand the technical aspects of system implementation as well as the business needs of our clients fill these positions. Employees participate in the full project lifecycle, from requirements-gathering through production support. Technical Team Members should have strong technical and communication skills, enabling them to interact with clients and detail system functionality. All candidates should be flexible in regard to work location and comfortable working on site with clients.

As a Technical Team Member, you will have the opportunity to consult and collaborate with our clients to understand their
unique business processes, objectives and requirements, empowering them to use the FAST software to maximize productivity, improve customer service, and achieve operational objectives. You will work alongside an experienced Technical Lead where you will perform key daily activities that will contribute to project success and lead to your advancement to the Technical Lead role on future projects. We have sites across North America and abroad and candidates should be flexible with respect to work locations.
