Java Developer (3+ years, Angular / React) - DHS CBP Program

NeatDevs LLC is a small federal subcontractor with a long-running seat on a U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) program in Ashburn, VA. We are hiring a Java Developer with 3+ years of experience to build full-stack features on a modernizing CBP platform. CLEARANCE: U.S. citizenship is required under the federal contract, and you must be able to obtain a DHS/CBP Public Trust (background investigation; no clearance needed to apply). An active or recent DHS Public Trust lets you start in weeks instead of months. Tell us if you have one. LOCATION: On site in Ashburn, VA one day a week; remote the rest. WHAT YOU'LL DO Build and maintain full-stack features in Java with Angular or React front ends on a modernizing CBP platform.

Pair with senior engineers on integrations with legacy systems, the best way to learn the domain. Work inside the program's SAFe / Kanban cadence and brief your work in sprint reviews with the government customer in the room. WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR BS/BA in computer science or a related field and 3+ years of Java development; Angular or React and Python are a plus. Someone who can explain a technical decision to a non-technical customer without either talking down or giving in. Comfortable learning a new domain fast; customs and trade systems reward curiosity.
