The Sponsor designs, develops, tests, integrates and deploys solutions for critical requirements. The current solution is at the end of life stage, therefore new solutions need to be developed and incorporated; new and innovative technologies utilized to successfully meet the user requirements. The goal of the Sponsor is to design and deliver an enterprise-level system with a modular, segmented architecture that can support both large scale and small scale solutions in order to meet the requirements across a broad range of applicable use cases. In order to support the technical requirements, the Sponsor requires Information Technology (IT) activities to achieve the goal of designing, developing, testing, integrating and deploying the solutions. The Developer Engineer will develop interfaces and Application Programming Interface (APIs) to Commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) and products with tools focused on cloud and big data use with cloud services and develop stateless implementations from architectures in cloud service providers. They will input and interface to configuration management and data repositories (such as GIT and GITHUB); develop Standard Operating procedures (SOPs); and should be knowledgeable of Active Directory (AD) and other Sponsor access interfaces for credential management. The Developer will work with multiple COTS vendors to integrate products in multiple Linux environments and Windows; develop and maintain a rigorous versioning system that links training and validation for reproducibility; establish a DevOps environment and use DevOps tools such as, Jenkins, Kubernetes, Chef, and Terraform; and test software using automated test products such as Angular and Selenium. They will also adhere to the Sponsor’s security practices and procedures; prepare and deliver program and user level documentation; support the development of security documentation for software environment establishment; and interact with members of the technical team leads; to understand the current system, subsystems, and component specifications and be able to use experience to recommend changes to facilitate efficient and effective development.
