? Work toward continuous integration/delivery pipelines in Amazon Web Services (AWS).
? Meet agency data security standards and apply approved data encryption techniques.
? Analyze user requirements to define business objectives and implement them in an application, envisioning system features and functionality.
? Work independently and manage time effectively in a remote environment, communicating clearly in verbal and written form, and coming on-site as needed.
Required Technical Skills:
? 15 years of experience with Java Core, Java EE (JEE), the Java Persistence API (JPA), and the Java Persistence Query Language (JPQL).

? Experience with application load testing using Apache JMeter or similar.
? Experience with JIRA.
