Job description

We are a federal IT company on a mission to make customer experience (CX) the center of every government solution.

Technology is our Passion. People are our Purpose.

We know tech, but we love people. NuAxis is home to thinkers and feelers; engineers and artists. We work hard and support each other along the way. Teamwork is more than just a buzzword for us, it's a state of mind.

We believe happy employees do amazing work, so join our team NOW! We are currently seeking a talented and motivatedIT Web Developer III for a Full-Time position.

A mid-to-senior web developer supporting both sides of the WHD program: sustaining the legacy ASP.NET / .NET 8 applications on IBM DB2 that serve the public today, and rebuilding those applications in Drupal 10+ on DOL's PACE containerized AWS platform. The role delivers sprint-based enhancements, defect fixes, and integrations, and uses DOL's secure AI coding tools as a required part of the development workflow.

Key Responsibilities

• Maintain and enhance WHD legacy web applications built on ASP.NET / .NET 8, Bootstrap, and AngularJS with IBM DB2, including Workers Owed Wages, Section 14(c), External User Portal, Survey (eWD10), SF-98, DirectoryAdmin, and ContactWHD.
• Resolve incidents and defects routed through ServiceNow, meeting the 30-minute O&M incident response window; package fixes into planned or emergency releases.
• Develop modernized applications in Drupal 10+ (custom modules, Webform, configuration management) backed by MySQL, preserving all existing functionality.
• Build and consume REST APIs and integrations with WISE/CAPS on Appian, SharePoint, Kafka, Login.gov, and DOL SSO, following provided API specifications and data contracts.
• Implement form behavior required across modernized applications: real-time inline validation, one-time submission, document upload, bilingual (English/Spanish) content, and tamper-evident audit logging.
• Write secure code that guards against OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities; remediate findings from static code analysis, container scans, STIGs, and SRRs.
• Use DOL's-provided secure AI coding tools (Microsoft Copilot) to generate a contract-mandated share of code (up to 50%), and review all generated code against DOL quality-check procedures.
• Commit all code and deployment scripts to the DOL OCIO GitLab repository; promote through development, staging, and production via the DevSecOps pipeline.
• Perform unit testing against acceptance criteria and participate in each sprint’s code review.
• Produce technical documentation and support manuals, and support data migration and decommissioning of replaced .NET applications.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
• 5+ years of professional web application development experience.
• Hands-on experience with C#, ASP.NET, and .NET (Core/6+), and with front-end technologies (HTML5, CSS, JavaScript, Bootstrap).
• Experience developing in Drupal (8/9/10+), including custom modules and Webform.
• Experience with relational databases and SQL (IBM DB2 and/or MySQL).
• Experience building and integrating RESTful APIs.
• Working knowledge of secure coding (OWASP Top 10) and Section 508 / WCAG accessible development.
• Experience with Git-based CI/CD pipelines and Agile delivery using Jira.
• Experience using AI-assisted programming tools (e.g., Microsoft Copilot, GitHub Copilot).
• Must obtain and maintain a favorable NACI / HSPD-12 background investigation.

Preferred Qualifications

• Acquia Drupal Developer certification.
• Experience with Appian integrations, Login.gov, or Kafka.
• Experience deploying to Kubernetes/AWS containerized platforms (EKS, Aurora).
• AngularJS experience for legacy application support.
• Prior federal web modernization experience

Our Profile:

We are an IT company with a unique mission—to make people the center of every federal IT solution. Our technologists have always gone the extra mile to help our federal clients succeed. And over the years, we saw a growing disconnect in how federal IT initiatives were built and managed.Time after time, programs failed because the focus was on the tools and products and not the people using them.

NuAxis is an Equal Opportunity Employer. Employment is contingent upon successful completion of a background investigation. Learn Moreabout our Benefits and Culture!
