Java Developer

Annapolis Junction, MD

Full Time

Entry Level

Software Engineer — Java / Spring (Data Dictionary Platform)

Make an Impact Where It Matters Most

At Intelliforce, we build mission-ready technology that helps the intelligence community move with speed, precision, and confidence. In this role, you will help build and sustain the Data Dictionary Capability, a platform that defines how mission data is structured, validated, and shared across critical systems. Your work will strengthen interoperability, improve data quality, and help ensure teams across the mission can rely on consistent, trusted data.

What Makes This Opportunity Stand Out

This role gives you the chance to work on a platform that sits at the foundation of how mission systems communicate. You will help shape the features, services, and data models that make specifications usable across programs, while working closely with engineers, stakeholders, and program teams in a fast-moving environment. The work blends backend development, user interface support, REST services, database design, and deployment activities, so you stay close to both the engineering and the mission.

At Intelliforce, your work is visible and your impact is real. Because we support prime programs, our teams stay close to meaningful mission work with strong momentum. Because we are a small business, leadership is accessible, communication is direct, and strong engineering gets noticed. Add in long-term stability, strong benefits, and a people-first culture, and this becomes more than another software role. It is a chance to help shape a mission platform other systems depend on.

Here’s What Your Day-to-Day Could Include

Design and develop features for a Java and Spring-based application that manages data specifications
Maintain and enhance a user interface used to define attributes and valid values
Build and support RESTful services that provide programmatic access to specifications
Support database development and data persistence strategies
Participate in testing, deployment, and documentation activities
Communicate progress, technical decisions, and risks clearly to teammates and leadership
Work collaboratively in a fast-paced environment while maintaining strong engineering standards

Minimum Qualifications

Clearance: Top Secret Clearance with Full Scope Polygraph, must be active. We do not have the ability to sponsor clearances
Citizenship: Must be a U.S. Citizen. We cannot sponsor visas
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a related technical discipline from an accredited college or university, plus relevant Software Engineering experience supporting programs of similar scope and complexity
Additional experience may be substituted for a degree where permitted by the labor category

Required Skills

Strong experience with Java development, including enterprise applications
Experience using the Spring framework
Experience designing and implementing RESTful web services
Familiarity with relational databases, particularly PostgreSQL or similar SQL platforms
Experience with user interface development, design, and testing
Knowledge of web technologies including XML and JSON
Experience working in Linux environments
Familiarity with container technologies such as Docker and Kubernetes
Experience with software deployment pipelines
Familiarity with issue tracking or task management tools
Ability to communicate technical concepts clearly and professionally

Desired Skills

Experience with J2EE application development
Familiarity with additional ticketing systems such as Redmine
Experience working in collaborative, cross-functional engineering teams
Ability to work effectively with minimal supervision in a mission environment

Compensation Range: $189,000.00 - $243,000.00

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability Form CC-305
OMB Control Number 1250-0005

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
