ASP.NET Full Stack Developer - Bitly

ASP.NET Full Stack Developer Job Description Sidekick Interactive is a young and dynamic company which primarily develops mobile applications (native iOS and Android solutions) for a variety of different clients. We’ve worked on innovative and demanding projects for the City of Montreal, car2go, startups and european clients, to name a few.
