Junior Software Developer, Public Sector; Hybrid

Trillium Professional is now seeking an Assistant Software Developer for work in Boston, MA for a hybrid position!

The MDM team supports critical shared services that help connect and validate data across multiple systems. This work plays an important role in identity resolution, golden record generation, and downstream data delivery for Health and Human Services programs. The team operates in a complex, high‑impact environment and is looking to add a developer who can contribute to day‑to‑day support, learn existing services and patterns, and grow into a long‑term member of the team.

This is not a role that requires prior experience in a specific MDM product or platform. The ideal candidate is curious, adaptable, comfortable learning new technologies, and interested in supporting systems that integrate data across a broad public‑sector landscape.

• Support the maintenance and enhancement of existing data services, APIs, and related processes.
• Assist with investigation and resolution of lower‑tier technical issues and production support requests.
• Make small, bounded updates to existing APIs, payloads, and service configurations under guidance.
• Run established jobs and operational processes as needed and help validate outcomes.
• Contribute to larger implementation efforts by taking on clearly defined development and support tasks.
• Partner with technical leads and analysts to understand how data moves across systems and how services support business processes.
• Help document changes, issue patterns, and support procedures to improve team knowledge sharing.
• Follow established privacy, security, and compliance guardrails when working with sensitive data and systems.
• Collaborate with team members across MDM, program management, and adjacent data teams.

Pay rate is $65/hour.

• Some hands‑on coding experience through internships, academic projects, research, technical analyst work, or early professional experience.
• Basic familiarity with software development concepts such as APIs, structured data, and system‑to‑system data exchange.
• Some SQL experience and comfort working with data.
• Demonstrated ability to learn new tools, technologies, and technical patterns quickly.
• Strong problem‑solving and analytical thinking skills.
• Strong communication skills and willingness to ask questions, take direction, and incorporate feedback.
• Ability to work in a regulated environment with strong attention to privacy, security, and operational guardrails.
• Interest in contributing to a mission‑driven public‑sector technology environment.

• Experience with Python, Java, SQL, SAS, or similar technologies.
• Internship, fellowship, or early‑career experience supporting production systems, integrations, or operational workflows.
• Exposure to healthcare, payer, human services, government, or other regulated data environments.
• Familiarity with APIs, JSON, and troubleshooting data flows.
• Experience contributing to technical projects with concrete outcomes.
• Exposure to sensitive data environments, including HIPAA‑governed contexts, is a plus.
• Experience working with legacy systems, enterprise platforms, or existing codebases is a plus.
