Client: State of Iowa, Department of Management, Division of Information Technology (DOM DoIT)

Position Overview

-          Code samples or a portfolio are required upfront with every submission, including front-end and UI work. Do not submit candidates who cannot provide them. Candidate who are submitted without code samples or portfolio will be rejected.  Links can be inputted on the resumes.

DOM DoIT is seeking two senior-level developers focused on .NET development and front-end, UI/UX work to support and enhance enterprise applications serving Iowans across state programs. These are hands-on roles for developers who build the .NET backend and the user-facing front end, and who can hit the ground running with modern best practices.

The current environment uses Bootstrap and Material. The State is transitioning toward an enterprise design system across teams and AWS in the future. Candidates must already understand enterprise design systems and be able to work within one independently, without foundational training. Accessibility is the core purpose of this role. Every deliverable must meet WCAG 2.1 AA and Section 508, and accessibility is weighted as heavily as the technical focus.

These positions are fully remote. Candidates located in Iowa are preferred.

Role Weighting

-          .NET and C# development: approximately 40 percent

-          Front-end development, UI, and UX: approximately 40 percent

-          Middleware and APIs: approximately 10 percent

-          SQL Server: approximately 10 percent

-          Accessibility: a heavy, core requirement across all of the work above

Key Responsibilities

-          Develop, enhance, and support enterprise applications using .NET and C#, including MVC and Web Forms where they remain in the environment.

-          Build front-end interfaces using HTML5, CSS, Sass, and JavaScript, translating designs into responsive, production-quality pages and components.

-          Apply UX and UI best practices and design thinking in the front end, including layout, interaction patterns, and usability, and collaborate with designers on implementation details.

-          Implement and extend components within the current Bootstrap and Material environment and the enterprise design system as it rolls out, understanding how a design system differs from a component library or framework.

-          Code to WCAG 2.1 AA and remediate accessibility issues, testing with assistive technologies such as JAWS and automated tools such as axe.

-          Design, build, and maintain backend services and APIs, with supporting middleware and SQL Server work as needed.

-          Apply secure coding practices, including appropriate use of encryption APIs, and handle classified and sensitive data in accordance with state requirements.

-          Manage source control, deployments, and CI/CD processes using Azure DevOps.

-          Troubleshoot and resolve production issues across applications and environments.

Required Qualifications

-          Bachelor's degree in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), design, computer science, or a related field, or equivalent professional experience. A graduate degree in HCI is preferred. A degree in design or HCI combined with a solid coding background is preferred. Multiple degrees and certifications are valued.

-          Strong .NET and C# development experience, and strong front-end development experience. These two areas are the core of the role.

-          Demonstrated UX and UI knowledge: design thinking, usability principles, responsive design, and experience turning designs into working interfaces. A portfolio should show UI work, not only backend code.

-          Front-end depth in HTML5, CSS, Sass, and JavaScript.

-          Formal WCAG training and demonstrated experience coding and testing for WCAG 2.1 AA, including hands-on use of accessibility testing tools.

-          Recent experience (within the last three years) with current frameworks and modern best practices. Legacy system experience older than three years will not align with the State's upcoming standardization efforts.

-          Experience working within an enterprise design system.

-          Experience with Azure DevOps and CI/CD pipelines.

-          Working knowledge of SQL Server, APIs, and middleware integrations.

-          Experience supporting enterprise production applications, and experience handling classified or sensitive data.

Preferred Qualifications

-          Accessibility certification (for example, DHS Trusted Tester, IAAP WAS, or CPACC) or equivalent formal training.

-          Experience supporting government or healthcare systems.

-          Experience with Angular, GitHub, and AWS services.

-          Experience modernizing existing applications rather than building greenfield solutions.

Vendor Submission Guidance

-          Code samples or a portfolio are required upfront with every submission, including front-end and UI work. Do not submit candidates who cannot provide them.

-          Candidates must arrive at interviews prepared and on time, ready to demonstrate hands-on execution and discuss practical examples, including Web Forms, design systems versus Bootstrap, and Sass and HTML5. Assurances that a candidate can learn quickly on the job are not a substitute for existing proficiency.

-          Prior candidate pools missed the mark on at least one core requirement in every case, most often formal WCAG training and hands-on front-end experience. Screen against every core requirement before submitting.

-          Highest priority: .NET and C# development, hands-on front-end development with UX and UI knowledge, WCAG accessibility with formal training, and enterprise design system experience.

-          Strong preference: CI/CD, classified data handling, and government or healthcare experience.

-          Supporting skills: SQL Server, middleware and API development.

-          Nice to have: Angular, AWS, GitHub.

Ideal Candidate

-          The ideal candidate is a developer who is strong in .NET and equally strong at the front end: they build the interface Iowans actually see, to design standards, accessibly, and they can show that work. They already work the way these teams are moving: modern practices, an enterprise design system, and accessible code tested with real tools, without foundational training or a long ramp-up.

-          Primary skill set: .NET, C#, HTML5, CSS, Sass, JavaScript, UX and UI design implementation, WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility and testing tools, REST APIs, Azure DevOps, CI/CD, enterprise design systems.

Position focus: accessibility first, with .NET development and front-end
