About this role
Sparksoft serves government clients with cloud-based IT solutions, and this role offers the chance to work on meaningful, national-impact projects as a mid-level full stack developer. You'd design and build applications in AWS using Java and microservices architecture, working within Agile teams across backend systems, APIs, and integration layers. The position balances technical depth—requiring 5+ years of Java experience, hands-on work with Spring Boot, Docker, and CI/CD pipelines—with broader full stack exposure, including some frontend JavaScript and Python scripting for automation.
The role emphasizes code quality, security practices, and continuous improvement. You'd participate in peer reviews, mentor junior developers, and contribute to refining development methodologies. Level 2 support and troubleshooting are part of the scope, alongside collaboration with both technical and business teams. A hybrid arrangement based in Maryland keeps you connected to the office while offering flexibility.
Candidates must hold or be able to obtain a Public Trust clearance and have lived in the United States for at least three of the past five years. Sparksoft offers competitive compensation, 401(k) matching, comprehensive health coverage, flexible time off, and professional development opportunities. This is a solid fit if you have substantial Java and microservices experience, thrive in government-sector work, and want to grow into a mentoring role.
