Metric5 is looking for a motivated Full Stack JavaScript Developer for work on a highly visible project for our NGA/DoD customer.
The ideal Full Stack JavaScript Developer has hands-on experience working in a true Agile environment performing software engineering tasks across multiple teams, with expertise spanning front-end and back-end development. Our software engineers serve in critical roles to design, build, test, and maintain software products to ensure strong functionality and optimization.
As a software engineer at Metric5, you will be responsible for the technical design, development, documentation, and engineering of software solutions using React, NestJS, Node.js, Type Script, and Vite within a modern cloud-native ecosystem.

You will work with containerized deployments on Open Shift/Kubernetes managed through Helm charts and ArgoCD in a Git Ops workflow.
The successful candidate will work directly with customers, test engineers, and other team members throughout all stages of the development lifecycle to implement application enhancements. You have a passion for high-quality, reliable, and maintainable code. You are agile and retrospective, and not afraid to identify what we are doing wrong so we can fix it, and what we are doing right so we can improve on it.
