  • Participate in Agile ceremonies, technical discussions, code reviews, and architecture planning.

  • Provide technical guidance, mentorship, and knowledge transfer to internal development teams.

  • Create and maintain technical documentation, including API specifications, deployment procedures, and development guidelines.

Required Qualifications

  • 5+ years of professional software development experience, including hands-on full-stack development.

  • Strong experience with Python and Flask for backend application development.

  • Hands-on experience with SQLAlchemy and Alembic for database operations and migrations.

  • Strong proficiency in JavaScript, TypeScript, HTML5, and modern CSS/SCSS.

  • Experience with Vue 2 and Vue 3, including class components, Pinia, and Nuxt 3.

  • Experience designing and integrating RESTful APIs, including JSON Schema.

  • Practical experience with Google Cloud Platform, particularly Cloud Run, Cloud SQL, Pub/Sub, and Cloud Build.

  • Experience building microservices and containerized applications using Docker.

  • Experience implementing automated CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions and Cloud Build.

  • Familiarity with event-driven architectures and asynchronous messaging using GCP Pub/Sub and CloudEvents.

  • Experience with authentication and authorization solutions such as Keycloak and JWT.

  • Experience implementing automated testing using pytest and Vitest.

  • Strong communication skills and the ability to collaborate with technical and non-technical stakeholders.

  • Experience working in Agile development environments.

Nice to Have

  • Experience with LaunchDarkly or similar feature flag management platforms.

  • Experience modernizing legacy applications or migrating systems to cloud-native architectures.

Project Environment

You will contribute to a large-scale digital modernization initiative focused on replacing legacy registry systems with modern, secure, and scalable digital services.

The project leverages cloud-native architecture, microservices, modern front-end frameworks, and automated delivery practices within Google Cloud Platform.

You will work closely with a cross-functional Agile team, including software developers, solution architects, product managers, UX/UI designers, and business analysts.

The role requires a collaborative, hands-on developer who can contribute to both application development and cloud-based delivery processes while supporting long-term maintainability and knowledge transfer.

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
