Java Developer

Job Title

The position is responsible for providing ongoing maintenance and support of complex Java applications and developing enhancements to Electronic Death Registry System (EDRS) and Birth Records System (BRS) for MDHHS. BRS and EDRS are large critical applications used by the agency for recording births and deaths statewide. These applications support online collaboration, from the creation of records to the production of certified copies of birth and death certificates. Changes are being constantly made to enhance the stability and functionality of these systems. The resource is integral to developing and maintaining the applications, automated processes, streamlining critical business processes, data integrity, SEM/SUITE compliance, and securing the applications. The resource also performs as a technical lead and provides technical guidance to the other developers in the department. As a technical lead, the resource participates in a variety of analytical assignments that provide for the enhancement, integration, maintenance, and implementation of projects. The resource also provides technical oversight to developers in the team that support other critical applications. Not having a resource on staff will lead to MDHSS manually documenting and developing screen plans that can lead to errors causing data integrity issues and can eventually lead to incorrect information being processed and reporting of the patient information.
