• Establish and promote coding, quality, reuse, and performance standards.
• Identify and remediate technical debt, inefficient code, and data-quality issues.
• Provide hands‑on support during production incidents, troubleshooting sessions, and SRT calls.
• Mentor and guide developers while partnering closely with team members.
• Review data flows from SAP and non‑SAP sources into reporting applications.
• Support data validation, reconciliation, audit checkpoints, and the resolution of data mismatches.
• Collaborate with other squads that share enterprise reporting and data capabilities.
• Assist with federal and state reporting requirements and related application support.

• Strong experience developing enterprise applications with Java and Spring Boot.
• Experience with Angular, REST APIs, SQL, and PostgreSQL or comparable relational databases.
• Demonstrated experience as a senior developer, technical lead, or team lead.
• Ability to guide a development team while remaining hands‑on technically.
• Experience with technical design, backlog refinement, code reviews, testing, and deployment support.
• Knowledge of data integration, ETL processes, and data quality practices.
• Experience troubleshooting production issues and supporting critical applications.
• Strong communication, collaboration, and problem‑solving skills.

• Experience with IBM Data Stage or comparable ETL technologies.
• Familiarity with SAP and non‑SAP data sources.
• Experience supporting reporting platforms or regulated data environments.
• Knowledge of data reconciliation, audit controls, and reporting data validation.
• Experience working across multiple application or delivery squads.

The successful candidate will be a collaborative technical leader who can help the team work more efficiently, improve application quality, and provide hands‑on guidance throughout the software development lifecycle.

This position is only open to applicants who can be engaged on a W-2 basis. 1099 contractors and Corp-to-Corp arrangements will not be considered for this position.
