• Perform unit, functional, integration, and performance testing; troubleshoot application, database, and data-processing defects; optimize system performance; and support IRIS Mirror, high-availability, backup/recovery, and production sustainment environments.
• Develop maintainable and secure code that meets VA software-quality standards, participate in code reviews, maintain technical documentation and design artifacts, and support version control and CI/CD practices using GitHub, Azure DevOps, and related engineering tooling.
• Support production deployments, upgrades, incident resolution, platform modernization, containerization, automation, and observability efforts while collaborating across engineering, operations, data, customer, and contractor teams.
• Take on additional tasks and responsibilities as needed to support team objectives and ensure the success of the project.

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Engineering, or a related technical discipline, with 5+ years of experience developing enterprise applications using InterSystems Caché and/or InterSystems IRIS.
• 3+ years of hands-on ObjectScript development experience, including strong knowledge of IRIS classes, globals, SQL, relational database concepts, and data-access patterns.
• Experience designing and implementing REST APIs, web services, system integrations, and enterprise data-processing solutions.
• Experience troubleshooting complex software applications, databases, and data-processing workflows in production environments, including automated testing, code review, version control, Agile development, and DevOps/CI/CD practices.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to produce clear technical documentation and develop secure, readable, maintainable, and well-structured solutions.
• Strong communication and collaboration skills with the ability to work independently while partnering effectively across engineering, operations, data, and customer teams.

Additional Qualifications:

• Experience with VX130, VistA, FileMan, MUMPS, InterSystems HealthShare/Ensemble, IRIS Mirror/high-availability architectures, or Department of Veterans Affairs healthcare systems.
• Experience with IRIS on Linux, containers/Kubernetes, virtual machines and/or bare metal, along with engineering tools such as GitHub, Azure DevOps, Jenkins, Fortify, OpenAPI/Swagger, Visual Studio, and Python.
