Sr. Web Backend Developer
Nexiva Inc
Job Title : Sr. Web Backend Developer
Location : Alexandria, VA Onsite
Duration : Long-Term
Start Date : November 15, 2026
Interview Type : In-Person
Project : Digital Modernization
Project Overview: Web Modernization and SmarTrip Mobile App 2.0
The organization is currently executing two strategic digital modernization initiatives: the Web Modernization Project and the SmarTrip Mobile App 2.0 Project. Both projects are actively underway and are critical to enhancing the customer experience across digital channels.
The Web Modernization Project involves the complete redevelopment of the front-end experience for the organization's primary website and SmarTrip website, replacing the existing platform that was last significantly refreshed in 2016. While a separate vendor is responsible for the website front-end implementation, backend development resources are required to develop, integrate, test, and deploy the supporting SmarTrip backend services and APIs necessary to enable the new website functionality.
The modernized platform will continue to serve as the primary digital channel for transit information, customer self-service capabilities, and SmarTrip account management.
The SmarTrip Mobile App 2.0 Project focuses on enhancing the existing iOS and Android mobile application by introducing new features and improvements designed to provide a more personalized, intuitive, and user-friendly customer experience. Support is required for application integration, development, configuration, testing, deployment, and production implementation of the backend components that support the mobile application and related services.
Duties and Responsibilities
- Analyze, design, develop, and implement technical designs.
- Evaluate customer requirements and provide effective solutions.
- Participate in problem resolution related to system design and reviews.
- Review and recommend approval of functional and technical design documents, system implementations, program enhancements, and updates to web applications.
- Analyze and evaluate system changes to determine feasibility, alternative solutions, and backup procedures.
- Develop, upgrade, and enhance General Orders Track Rights System and Site-Specific Work Plan application programs while ensuring compliance with approved standards.
- Successfully complete mandatory security awareness training on an annual basis.
- Review and assist with system hardening and vulnerability remediation.
- Participate in mandatory peer code reviews as part of the code commitment process to ensure secure coding practices are followed before code is merged.
