Job Description: We are seeking a Front-End Software Engineer with extensive experience related to front-end software development and who is capable of not only delivering a capability in that form but can also pass their knowledge on to others. The candidate will be responsible for creating the user facing side of the application as it operates in a web page. The candidate will take requirements from a teammate with User Interface/User Experience (UI/UX) expertise in the form of wireframes, site maps, diagrams/schematics, process maps, feature lists, mock-ups and visual specifications. Lean Agile is the development process used on the team so familiarity with that methodology is key. The ability to seamlessly connect the front end of the application to the data tier via the microservices and middleware components is expected. Responsibility for development of unit tests and the automated execution of those tests as well as participation in end-to-end testing is required.

Required Skills:

• Experience in Javascript, including Es6+ features and experience with modern frameworks (React or Lit).
• Experience with Java.
• Use of front-end markup languages, with experience implementing responsive designs using Bootstrap framework.
• Work closely with UI/UX designers, transform wireframes, mockup, and prototypes into designs to ensure seamless user experience aligns to HCI principles.
• Integrate front-end components with back-end services using RESTful APIs or GraphQL to fetch, display and update data in real-time applications.
• Implement front end best practices for performance optimization (e.g. lazy loading, code splitting); ensure secure communications between front end and back end services.
• Use GIT for version control; manage codebases and branching strategies.
• Use front end testing frameworks/tools (e.g. Playwright, Jest, Mocha, Cypress) to create unit tests, integration tests, and end-to-end tests to ensure code stability and high quality output.

What You'll Need To Succeed:

• Education: BA/BS in Information Technology or related field or the equivalent combination of education, technical certifications or training, or work experience
• Experience: 5 + years of related experience
• Security Clearance Level: TS/SCI with Polygraph
