3 FT Positions | Cary
Come join a winning team!
e-Emphasys is a fast-growing enterprise software company that makes the industry’s leading ERP platform for Heavy Equipment dealerships. These are the guys who sell or rent-out the big yellow machines we see every day on our roads or construction sites. What we don’t always think about are the other big yellow machines in the mining, agriculture, forestry and material handling industries. We help their dealerships improve their performance, too. We are a smart bunch of folks who take great pride in the company we have built together. Today, we are over 250 employees with customers in seventeen countries. We are completely employee-owned, which means we decide what type of company we want to be. That’s pretty cool. We are always on the look-out for outstanding talent to join us on our journey. If you are looking for a true meritocracy where good ideas are championed from any corner, and you can check your ego at the door (but never your sense of humor) we may be the next right home for you. Oh, and we offer a competitive compensation package and a full benefits program – health, dental, vision, life, 401K – to every employee. That’s why so many of our folks have been with us for 10-15 years. We have the happiest customers and employees in the business.
