Kforce has a client that is seeking a remote Software Engineer IV to join their team. Summary: They are modernizing their product UI by transitioning from a legacy JSP/HTML-based front end to a modern Angular application. This is not a lift-and-shift rewrite, it is a ground-up UI rebuild and workflow redesign to improve usability, performance, scalability, and long-term maintainability. The client is seeking a senior, hands-on engineer responsible for designing and building Angular applications from scratch, establishing best practices, and helping migrate existing UI capabilities into a modern, component-driven architecture. A key expectation is the ability to work independently with minimal oversight while collaborating effectively with product, UX, and backend teams. Key Responsibilities:
  • Software Engineer IV will build and evolve Angular UI applications from the ground up, including application structure, routing, state patterns, and reusable component architecture
  • Drive modernization of legacy UI functionality from JSP/HTML into Angular with a focus on improving workflows, not just recreating screens
  • Implement scalable UI components and patterns to support consistency across the platform
  • Partner with backend/API teams to integrate UI with modern services and enable a future-ready platform
  • As a Software Engineer IV, you will contribute to migration planning to ensure smooth transition and minimal user disruption during phased rollouts
  • Deliver with high ownership: break down problems, propose solutions, and execute with minimal oversight

Requirements:

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or Related Major
  • 10+ years of professional software engineering experience with substantial front-end delivery
  • Strong, hands-on experience building production SPAs using Angular and TypeScript
  • Experience modernizing or migrating legacy UIs (e.g., JSP, server-rendered HTML) into modern SPA architectures
  • Demonstrated ability to design and implement applications from scratch (architecture + delivery), not just feature work
  • Ability to work independently, drive tasks to completion, and communicate clearly across engineering/product/UX teams
  • Technical Skills (Angular modules/packages)

The pay range is the lowest to highest compensation we reasonably in good faith believe we would pay at posting for this role. We may ultimately pay more or less than this range. Employee pay is based on factors like relevant education, qualifications, certifications, experience, skills, seniority, location, performance, union contract and business needs. This range may be modified in the future.

We offer comprehensive benefits including medical/dental/vision insurance, HSA, FSA, 401(k), and life, disability & ADD insurance to eligible employees. Salaried personnel receive paid time off. Hourly employees are not eligible for paid time off unless required by law. Hourly employees on a Service Contract Act project are eligible for paid sick leave.

Note: Pay is not considered compensation until it is earned, vested and determinable. The amount and availability of any compensation remains in Kforce's sole discretion unless and until paid and may be modified in its discretion consistent with the law.

This job is not eligible for bonuses, incentives or commissions.
