Basic Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a related field with 8–12 years of relevant experience, or a Master’s degree with 6–10 years of experience. May also possess a Doctorate.
• Expert knowledge of Java with substantial hands‑on programming experience
• Extensive experience with Web development and commonly used front‑end tools and languages (React, HTML, CSS, JavaScript)
• Extensive experience with unit testing tools such as Junit and Mockito

• Understanding of sound software development principles and practices
• Ability to effectively communicate verbally and in writing
• Ability to obtain SF‑85 Public Trust (Tier 2) suitability determination
