Full Stack Developer

Accountabilities:

As a senior technical expert, you will oversee software development initiatives from initial concept through production deployment, ensuring solutions meet business objectives, technical requirements, and client expectations. Your responsibilities will include:

• Lead the full software development lifecycle for digital products, from requirements gathering and architecture to development, testing, deployment, and transition to ongoing product support.

• Define project scope, estimate levels of effort, and determine technical approaches for client engagements, internal initiatives, and business development opportunities.

• Design, develop, and maintain scalable full-stack applications, with a strong focus on backend engineering, system reliability, and long-term maintainability.

• Transform manual workflows into automated and agentic processes using custom software, low-code platforms, and generative AI technologies.

• Establish software development standards, tools, version control practices, CI/CD pipelines, automated testing procedures, documentation, and release management processes.

• Determine when to leverage low-code and no-code solutions, including Microsoft Power Platform and Power Automate, and when custom development is more appropriate.

• Build and integrate APIs and connect applications with diverse data sources, including PDFs, spreadsheets, data lakes, IoT sensor feeds, point-cloud surveys, and BIM models.

• Deploy applications across multiple client-hosted production environments while addressing different infrastructure constraints, security requirements, and release procedures.

• Implement secure development practices covering authentication, authorization, encryption, vulnerability scanning, and dependency management.

• Evaluate emerging technologies, development tools, and platforms based on cost, scalability, support requirements, and long-term sustainability.

• Translate business challenges and operational needs into technical requirements, system architectures, and actionable development plans.

• Document architectural decisions, communicate technical trade-offs, and provide technical direction, code reviews, and guidance to project teams and junior developers.

• Develop reusable components, technical playbooks, and documentation to improve development efficiency and support future projects.

• Assess solution maturity and determine when prototypes and early-stage concepts are ready for production and commercial deployment.

Requirements:

The ideal candidate combines extensive software engineering experience with strong architectural judgment, practical problem-solving abilities, and the communication skills needed to collaborate with technical and non-technical stakeholders. The following qualifications are expected:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical discipline with at least 10 years of relevant experience, or a Master's degree with at least 5 years of experience.

• At least 5 years of experience in architecture and engineering, professional services consulting, or a comparable environment developing operational or client-facing software solutions.

• Proven experience managing the complete software development lifecycle, from concept definition and requirements gathering to architecture, development, testing, and production launch.

• Strong full-stack development skills using C#, .NET, Python, JavaScript, and TypeScript.

• Experience with modern front-end frameworks such as React, Angular, or Vue.js.

• Solid knowledge of backend engineering, database architecture, and data management across SQL Server, PostgreSQL, and NoSQL platforms.

• Experience designing and deploying cloud-native applications using Azure, AWS, or Google Cloud Platform, including containerization and serverless architectures.

• Proficiency in API design, systems integration, and connecting applications to complex data environments.

• Experience implementing secure software development practices, including authentication, authorization, encryption, vulnerability scanning, and dependency management.

• Demonstrated ability to establish and improve software development practices, including source control, CI/CD, automated testing, build pipelines, and release management.

• Familiarity with Microsoft Power Platform, Power Automate, and the integration of large language models and generative AI into software solutions.

• Ability to translate complex business requirements into technical specifications and scalable system architectures.

• Strong communication, collaboration, and problem-solving skills, with the ability to explain technical decisions and trade-offs to non-technical stakeholders.

• Experience providing technical leadership, conducting code reviews, and mentoring junior team members without direct people-management responsibilities.

• Ability to exercise sound technical judgment when selecting development tools, platforms, and implementation approaches.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Master's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or another relevant technical discipline.

• Experience developing custom plugins and extensions for Autodesk products such as Revit and Civil 3D, Bentley platforms, or comparable design software APIs.

• Familiarity with transportation, aviation, aerospace, or infrastructure systems, including Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), Transportation Systems Management and Operations (TSM&O), or digital twins.

• Experience integrating Building Information Modeling (BIM) and design models with real-time operational data.

• Background in productizing prototypes and delivering commercial software solutions, including SaaS platforms and reusable software products.

• Relevant certifications in cloud computing, software development, architecture, or cybersecurity.

• Candidates must be permanently authorized to work in the United States. Visa sponsorship and visa transfers are not available for this position.

Benefits:

• Opportunity to take software solutions from early-stage concepts through commercial launch and deployment in real-world client environments.

• Ability to shape and establish development standards, tools, and engineering practices for an expanding digital solutions capability.

• Exposure to the full software development stack, including modern cloud infrastructure, automation, low-code platforms, and generative AI.

• Opportunity to solve complex technical challenges across aviation, federal, transportation, aerospace, and health and science sectors.

• Close collaboration with multidisciplinary teams of architects, engineers, and scientists whose expertise directly influences the products and solutions being developed.

• Employee-owned organizational environment built around integrity, accountability, curiosity, and teamwork.

• Opportunity to contribute to innovative products and services with meaningful applications across critical industries.
