Position Description: CGI is seeking to hire a Front-End Software Engineer with deep Angular expertise and strong cross stack experience in Java (Spring Boot) and NodeJS. In this role, you'll modernize a legacy application, design a scalable Angular application structure, and collaborate across the stack to deliver high quality, performant features on an aggressive timeline.
This role is ideal for someone who understands Angular as a full framework and can design clean, maintainable front-end systems that integrate seamlessly with Java and NodeJS services.
This is a Full Time; On-Site Employment Opportunity based in Cary, NC .
Your future duties and responsibilities: . Design modern Angular applications using standalone components, feature modules, shared libraries, and strict typing for long term maintainability.
. Build reusable, accessible, and responsive UI components using Angular Material, CDK, or custom design systems.
. Implement robust state management using RxJS, NgRx, or Component Store to ensure predictable UI behavior.
. Develop and optimize Angular data services, interceptors, and API integration layers using HttpClient and RxJS pipelines.
. Apply advanced Angular performance techniques: OnPush change detection, zone less patterns, lazy loading, and route level code splitting.
. Collaborate with backend engineers to design clean API contracts and integrate with Java (Spring Boot) microservices and NodeJS service layers.
. Modernize legacy front end codebases by refactoring outdated modules, removing anti patterns, and aligning with current Angular best practices.
. Build CI/CD ready front end pipelines with automated linting, testing, and build validation.
. Identify opportunities for AI assisted development, including code generation, test creation, and documentation acceleration.
. Contribute to design discussions around component hierarchy, routing strategy, shared utilities, and cross application patterns.
Required qualifications to be successful in this role: . 6+ years of Angular (Angular 10+ preferred), with strong understanding of framework internals.
. 3+ years of NodeJS for building supporting services, middleware, or integration tooling.
. 2+ years of Java (Spring Boot) for backend collaboration or full stack delivery (nice to have).
. Deep experience with:
o RxJS (operators, subjects, multicasting, error handling)
o NgRx or Component Store
o Angular CLI, workspace configuration, schematics
o Routing strategies, guards, resolvers, lazy loading
o Change detection optimization
. Experience with Dev Assist tools (code generation, diagramming, automation helpers).
. Experience with test automation (Jest, Jasmine/Karma, Cypress, Playwright) is a plus.
. Experience with AWS (CloudFront, S3, Lambda, API Gateway) is a plus.
. Strong ownership mindset - drives features from design through delivery.
. Comfortable working across multiple concurrent business capabilities.
