  • Be a member of a cross-functional team with members including user experience professionals, product managers, engineers and other functional specialists
  • Craft technical solutions across the entirety of a system, including UI development, API development and everything in between 
  • Adhere to lean-agile engineering principles 
  • Advocate for and use modern software engineering best practices such as API-first design, continuous integration, version control, and automated testing
  • Analyze systems to identify technical debt, instability, unreliability, and other opportunities for improvement, and design, document, and communicate solutions
  • Represent Blue Tiger's culture of delivery when interacting with government stakeholders and other contractors

What we’re looking for:

  • At least five years of experience working as a full-stack software engineer on products with significant data requirements
  • Experience using various standards, languages, frameworks, techniques, and libraries such as HTML5, CSS3/Sass, Responsive Design, Python and related frameworks
  • Proficiency and familiarity with cloud technologies and solutions
  • Proficient in database design, implementation, and management.
  • In-depth knowledge of how to deliver application architectures and code that are highly scalable, available, and performant
  • Expertise using version control systems such as GitHub
  • Ability to author developer-friendly documentation such as API documentation and deployment operations
  • Proven ability to apply good software engineering principles and practices
  • Ability to select and use the best tools for the job, particularly open-source solutions
  • Ability to communicate technical concepts clearly to non-technical audiences
  • Experience working within a scrum/agile development methodology and environment

We value diversity and inclusion and encourage all interested candidates to apply. If you have more experience beyond what is detailed here, we’d be happy to take a look. If you meet most but not all of the requirements, we still want to hear from you!
