Summary: A leading IT Consultancy is looking for a Full Stack Engineer Developer with active SC Clearance to work on a government project. The role involves designing, building, testing, and operating secure full-stack services while delivering high-quality code across front-end and back-end systems. The position requires expertise in modern development standards and DDaT guidance. The role is remote and on a contract basis.
Key Responsibilities:
- Implement standards-compliant JavaScript/HTML front-ends and back-end services in Node.js and Spring Boot; design and expose RESTful APIs with policy-compliant API management; build microservices with robust integration to data, messaging, and UI layers.
- Integrate with relational/NoSQL stores (MongoDB/DocumentDB) and event streams (Kafka); ensure idempotency and reliable messaging.
- Implement IDAM/IdP, SSO, RBAC, SSL/TLS, and KMS usage within apps and pipelines; handle secrets safely and follow least-privilege patterns.
- Build observable services with AWS telemetry (metrics, logs, traces), well-defined SLOs, and automated alerts; maintain high availability and performance.
- Manage work in Jira/Confluence; use GitHub with trunk/GitFlow practices; implement CI/CD with quality gates, automated tests, and security scans; contribute to documentation and runbooks.
- Ensure services meet DWP expectations for security and performance.
Key Skills:
- Front-end & language: JavaScript, HTML; responsive UI patterns and web standards.
- Back-end: Node.js and Spring Boot microservices; RESTful API design and API management (policies, rate limiting, security), EKS (Kubernetes), Containerisation (Docker).
- Integration: data-layer integration; event-driven design with Kafka; NoSQL (MongoDB/DocumentDB).
- Security: IDAM/IdP, SSO, RBAC, SSL/TLS, KMS (key management and envelope encryption patterns), Graph API.
- Cloud operability: telemetry and logging on AWS; performance and availability monitoring.
- Tooling & delivery: Jira, Confluence, GitHub, CI/CD pipelines; automated testing and code reviews.
- Demonstrable delivery of citizen- or staff-facing services at scale using JavaScript/HTML, Node.js, Spring Boot, REST APIs and event-driven integrations on AWS.
- Proficient in Kubernetes & Containerisation of Applications (primarily using Docker).
- Track record of embedding security, observability and automation (tests, builds, deployments) into the development life cycle; strong CI/CD discipline and Git best practices.
- Experience collaborating in multi-disciplinary teams to meet security, accessibility, performance and reliability standards expected in digital services.
