Job description

Concept Plus is seeking a Mid-Level Software Developer to support client IT systems within a CI/CD DevSecOps environment. This role is responsible for developing and maintaining applications, ensuring code is integrated, tested, and deployed efficiently across development, security, and operations workflows. The position requires knowledge of client IT processes and technology stack, including DevSecOps pipelines, Cloud One environments, and Oracle/Java-based systems operating across classified and unclassified DISA and cloud environments.

The Developer supports system modernization by working within Agile teams to deliver secure, scalable, and high-quality solutions.

  • Cloud Operations: Support secure provisioning and monitoring of cloud environments, typically AWS GovCloud or Azure Government.

  • Design, develop, and maintain applications using modern software development practices

  • Contribute to CI/CD pipeline execution, ensuring code is integrated, tested, and deployed efficiently

  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams including DevSecOps, QA, and Cloud Engineering to support end-to-end delivery

  • Develop and maintain APIs, services, and backend components

  • Participate in Agile ceremonies, including sprint planning, backlog refinement, and reviews

  • Ensure code meets security, performance, and quality standards

  • Support automated testing and validation within the DevSecOps pipeline

  • Troubleshoot and resolve defects, performance issues, and integration challenges

  • Contribute to documentation and knowledge sharing to support team onboarding and system understanding
