Job Description
You build what reporters actually touch: a mobile-first, bilingual reporting form that asks a member of the public far less than it asks a clinician. Every screen you ship must pass automated and manual accessibility testing, so you build accessible from the first line. Full time, W-2, hybrid from Fairfax, Virginia, starting November 2026.
What you will do- Build the responsive reporting application on the U.S. Web Design System, one codebase across a defined device and browser matrix.
- Build separate public and healthcare-provider paths from a shared form definition, including paths that suppress fields that do not apply.
- Announce suppressed fields to assistive technology through live regions, and keep step count and progress accurate on every branch.
- Build rules-based validation and targeted in-form assistance, including lookups and structured data entry.
- Build save-and-resume so a partially completed report survives the session.
- Build secure document upload: allowlist by type and file signature, size caps, quarantine and scan before a file becomes available.
- Build the redesigned landing page, navigation and interactive FAQ content.
- Instrument the reporting funnel for usage analytics, with aggregate counts only.
- Build console screens for the configuration engine under the Technical Lead's design.
- Write unit and integration tests with every change; peer review every change by the Technical Lead.
- Fix defects raised by the QA and Accessibility Specialist within the release cycle.
What you need- Bachelor's degree in computer science or a related field and 5 years of web application development; 9 years of experience may substitute for the degree.
- Production experience with React or an equivalent component framework, plus Node.js or TypeScript.
- Accessible front-end work: semantic HTML, ARIA, keyboard support and focus management, tested against WCAG 2.1 AA.
- Responsive, mobile-first delivery across browsers and devices.
- Complex form work: conditional logic, client and server validation, file upload.
- Experience in at least one of: healthcare informatics, public health surveillance systems, healthcare data management, or healthcare-related IT.
- Ability to obtain and keep a federal Public Trust determination.
What sets a candidate apart- U.S. Web Design System (USWDS) on a federal site.
