Pega Software Engineer (Mid-Level - TS/SCI with Poly Required)

Description

A day in the life:

As a Pega Software Engineer, you will take an existing technical architecture that includes Pega Platform and create various innovation prototypes to address specific issues or problems. You will have to understand the problem, look into possible solutions, and create prototype solutions to address the requested innovation. Once the prototype is complete, demonstrations and user feedback will follow. Documentation will be produced to help foster transition into production capabilities. 

Your responsibilities will include, but not be limited to:

• Review innovation problem statements to understand and contribute to prototype design
• Implement designs within the innovation environment
• Review and test software components for adherence to the design requirements and document test results
• Resolve software problem reports
• Utilize software development and software design methodologies appropriate to the development environment
• Document designs, implementations, and test cases during the SLDC of the innovation prototype
• Provide specific input to the software components of system design to include hardware/software trade-offs, software reuse, use of Commercial Off-the-shelf (COTS)/Government Off-the-shelf (GOTS) in place of new development, and requirements analysis and synthesis from system level to individual software components     

What you bring to the table:

• 5+ years experience as a Software Engineer in programs and contracts of similar scope, type, and complexity
• 1+ years of Pega experience implementing applications and workflows within Pega Platform
  Strong writing and analytical skills
• Experience within an enterprise client's environment particularly in building and deploying applications, and development experience with deep COTS/FOSS integration exposure
• A penchant to think out of the box when devising solutions is a must
• Experience with: Linux; Docker; AWS; Pega Systems; SAP Hana; Eclipse Rich Client Platform; AngularJS / Jquery / BackboneJS (other JS frameworks); JavaScript build frameworks (npm, nodejs, gulp, etc.); RESTful Services
• Strong troubleshooting skills
• A Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or related discipline from an accredited college or university OR 4+ years of additional software engineering experience on projects with similar software processes may be accepted in lieu of a degree
• Must possess an active US Government TS/SCI security clearance with Polygraph

Bonus Skills:      

• An innate desire to learn many different technologies and not go deep into any one would be best
