  • Apply Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC) practices to design, develop, test, deploy, and maintain enterprise applications and integrations.
  • Implement and support enterprise service management (ITSM/ESM/PPM) solutions aligned with business processes and user experience goals.
  • Support and participate in deployment processes, including version control, release management, and continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD) practices.
  • Build and manage integrations using RESTful APIs, webhooks, and iPaaS/middleware tools to enable seamless data exchange between systems.
  • Monitor, troubleshoot, and resolve issues related to application performance, workflows, integrations, and system functionality.
  • Support and participate in change management processes to ensure controlled, reliable deployment of system updates and enhancements.
  • Develop and maintain technical documentation, including configurations, integrations, and user guides.
  • Develop and execute testing strategies, including functional and integration testing, to ensure solution quality.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams (project managers, analysts, stakeholders) to deliver high-quality, customer-focused solutions.

**Up to 2 days of telework after probation period.**
Minimum Qualifications:

  • Knowledge of system design concepts (scalability, modularity, performance optimization).
  • Knowledge of workflow automation and electronic forms development.
  • Understanding of IT service management (ITSM) or project management processes.
  • Knowledge of data security and privacy practices, particularly in protecting sensitive information (e.g., student data).

  • Ability to analyze business requirements and design effective technical solutions.
  • Strong troubleshooting, debugging, and performance optimization skills.
  • Effective written and verbal communication skills.
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities and deliver within established timelines.
