Job description
DHA Operational Medicine and Blood Management

Position Summary:
Stratitia is seeking a Mid-Level Full Stack Developer to serve as a core member of an Agile team supporting the Defense Health Agency's operational medicine and blood-management software portfolio. You will translate operational needs into secure, tested software spanning user interfaces, services, data stores, and external interfaces.
Why This Role Matters:
The software supports time-sensitive donor, inventory, distribution, and transfusion workflows. Success requires more than feature delivery: the right candidate will protect traceability, transactional accuracy, system interoperability, and dependable operation when connectivity is disrupted or limited.
What You Will Do:
-
Design and implement front-end and back-end components for prioritized features, enhancements, and defect corrections.
-
Translate user stories, functional rules, interface specifications, and acceptance criteria into production-quality software.
-
Develop and support APIs, services, data-access components, and adapters used to exchange information with external systems.
-
Implement validation, auditability, error handling, and transactional controls appropriate for regulated healthcare and logistics workflows.
-
Diagnose complex defects across application, database, interface, and deployment layers; provide clear root-cause analysis.
-
Contribute to offline-first or limited-connectivity capabilities, including synchronization, retry, idempotency, and conflict handling.
-
Create unit and integration tests, participate in peer reviews, and improve automated regression coverage.
-
Estimate work, identify dependencies and technical risks, and communicate progress within Agile planning and delivery ceremonies.
-
Partner with architecture, test, data, DevSecOps, cybersecurity, and functional teams to move changes through release readiness.
-
Maintain technical documentation, interface details, configuration records, and evidence supporting secure Government delivery.
Required Qualifications:
-
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Information Systems, Information Technology, or a related technical discipline.
-
Three to seven years of relevant software-development experience delivering full-stack applications.
-
Demonstrated proficiency in an object-oriented back-end language or runtime and a modern web user-interface framework.
-
Hands-on experience with RESTful APIs or other application interfaces, relational databases, SQL, source control, and automated testing.
-
Experience implementing business rules, data validation, exception handling, and defect corrections from documented requirements.
-
Working knowledge of secure coding, dependency management, logging, configuration management, and code-review practices.
-
Ability to troubleshoot across application layers and collaborate effectively with distributed, cross-functional teams.
-
Strong written communication skills for design notes, test evidence, operational impacts, and technical decisions.
Preferred Qualifications:
-
Experience with C#/.NET or Java; JavaScript or TypeScript; and React, Angular, Vue, or a comparable user-interface framework.
-
Experience with SQL Server, PostgreSQL, Oracle, or another enterprise relational database, including schema changes and performance tuning.
-
Experience designing synchronization, reconciliation, or resilient data-exchange workflows for disconnected or degraded networks.
-
Familiarity with healthcare interoperability or enterprise interfaces, including REST, SOAP, messaging, file exchange, HL7 v2, or FHIR.
-
Experience with containers, CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure automation, code-quality gates, or cloud-hosted platforms.
-
Knowledge of Section 508 accessibility, OWASP guidance, DoD DevSecOps, RMF/ATO, STIGs, or Government vulnerability-management processes.
-
Experience with military health, blood operations, medical logistics, regulated inventory, barcode-enabled workflows, or chain-of-custody systems.
Compensation and Benefits - Competitive Salary; Paid Time Off; Medical, Dental and Vision coverage; STD + Life Insurance; 401(k) Retirement Plans with Company Match
Conditions of Employment - Employment is contingent upon Government approval, successful completion of applicable pre-employment background checks and fingerprinting, and the candidate's ability to obtain and maintain any access, credential, suitability, or security clearance, and to meet any training requirements associated with the position.
