As a Nelnet company, the perks at NBS go beyond our benefits package. You’re part of a community, invested in you as an individual and united by our mission to create opportunities for people where they live, learn and work.

We’re FACTS Student Information System (SIS), and just like our parent company, Nelnet, we are dedicated to diversification and growth. We are people driven. As opportunities arise to diversify and apply our customer service and software expertise, we look to develop our associates to grow along this same path as our company.


Things move fast here so we’re agile and innovative in how we work, consistently looking at how we can improve. We’re only as good as our people – that’s where you come in.

As a Software Engineer II at FACTS SIS, you will be a key component of the application development process.
