Education Business Unit :
This division has been operating and growing in Japan for over 40 years. It is the Japanese distributor of U.S.-manufactured OMR (Optical Mark Reader) devices, importing and selling them locally. The company provides and supports systems using the data output from these scanners (e.g., entrance exam scoring). It also helps resolve client challenges by offering BPO services to handle entrance exam processes.
The team delivers services by understanding customer needs in the education field and offering tailored solutions to support the development of the exam processing market.
This project involves upgrading systems that use OMR devices. The data from the OMR is used for cleaning, scoring, and more. You’ll manage the entire development process—requirements definition, modifications, testing, delivery, and support. Communication with the client is also an essential part of the role. Although OMR is used, this is a typical development project.
Position Highlights :
- Involvement in the full system development process
- Freedom to control how the project is managed within a given schedule
- Ideal experience for someone aspiring to become a Project Manager
- Opportunity to propose system enhancements using your own knowledge and skills (Since many clients are conservative, your suggestions may be adopted and contribute to many exam takers.)
