Secure our Nation, Ignite your Future
Each day U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) oversees the massive flow of people, capital, and products that enter and depart the United States via air, land, sea, and cyberspace. The volume and complexity of both physical and virtual border crossings require the application of “big data” solutions to promote efficient trade and travel. Further, effective “big data” solutions help CBP ensure the movement of people, capital, and products is legal, safe, and secure. In response to this challenge, ManTech, as a trusted mission partner of CBP, seeks capable, qualified, and versatile Application Developers, Big Data and Cloud Engineering Subject Matter Experts to develop, implement and innovate new AI based analytics into applications to support law enforcement personnel to assess various threats from entering the country.
The Technical Lead/ SME Application Developer will:
Lead a team of Java developers to deliver, maintain and optimize analytics into the CBP IT enterprise;
Design and optimize micro-service platforms for AI/ML models to be supportable on-prem and into cloud based architectures;
Conduct hands-on development for new services, tools and applications.
Within three to six months of joining the contract team, the Technical Lead-Model Operations will be expected to:
Lead, develop and maintain end-user focused, object-oriented, data-driven analytic applications using DevOps and Agile development principles and technologies to support CBP threat analysis and targeting.
Independently identify technical solutions for business problems, directly contribute to conceptual design, and routinely collaborate with Enterprise/Application architects, Database Architects, Data Scientists, and mission stakeholders for building and transitioning on-prem applications to a hybrid cloud environment on Amazon Web Services (AWS).
Develop new code, modify existing application code, conduct unit and system testing, and engage in rigorous documentation of developed and delivered application use cases, data flows, and functional operations.
Demonstrate understanding of required design, service response and interoperability requirements of analytics services into the CBP enterprise.
Actively participate in formal and informal design reviews, solution sessions, and project milestone meetings as well as contribute to project document artifacts for presentation to both technical and non-technical audiences.
Integrate with, and materially contribute to, project portfolio teams as a matrixed resource to provide development and issue resolution expertise in collaboration with data scientists, intelligence analysts, developers, and other participants at the direction of a project manager.
Mentor junior developers and actively contribute to the development of a community of practice focused on enhancing technical skills, sharing best practices, and promoting enhanced mission domain knowledge.
Qualifications/ Required Experience:
Demonstrated strong full-stack development expertise in Java and Object-Oriented Design.
Recent hands-on experience with Java 8+ and the newer language features.
Extensive hands-on experience using Spring framework to develop Micro Services.
