Description
Gigster has partnered with a U.S. federal government agency to build and deploy multiple software solutions. The intention is to extend and augment the government team's capabilities when it comes to state-of-the-art technology planning and implementation.

The government team is implementing a new software platform that will service a vast array of interdepartmental use cases for day-to-day business. This solution will manifest as a website that users log into, and which displays many tools/services to accomplish a task. Each of these discrete tools/services will be implemented as a series of microservices, whereby each tool is a sort of plugin that is independently developed, deployed and made accessible within the platform. Gigster will be building one of these tools, while other teams work on other tools in parallel.

As a Senior Frontend Engineer, you will collaborate with a Gigster development team (engineering, program management) as well as government team leads to further clarify the scope of work, and implement the solution. You will work with all teams to ensure success at each stage of development (ideation through to deployment), and you will prioritize rapid, incremental deliverables to provide quick value to mission stakeholders. The primary code base will be Java/ReactJS, with additional tech expected to range across AWS, Kubernetes, NoSQL, Postgres, and Kong.

  • Advanced knowledge of JavaScript, jQuery, CSS, and HTML5.
  • Ability to clearly explain and justify ideas when faced with competing alternatives to enterprise clients and senior team members.
