Description

The Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center (JCCC) builds and supports a suite of mission-critical web applications that power research, clinical operations, and administrative workflows across the organization. We are seeking a Full-Stack Software Engineer to provide technical leadership and drive the development of secure, reliable, and user-centered systems used by a diverse community of internal and external stakeholders.

In this role, you will lead full-cycle software development-from gathering requirements and architecting solutions to hands-on coding, testing, deployment, and documentation. You'll work across multiple technologies, including Python, Java, JavaScript, SQL, and modern Java frameworks such as Spring Boot, while designing responsive front-end interfaces and scalable back-end systems.

You will support multiple departments by ensuring smooth, secure application performance, and you will guide technical decisions related to deployment platforms (Tomcat, WildFly), version control (Git), and DevOps tools (Docker, Podman). Additional responsibilities include contributing to infrastructure planning, backup and disaster-recovery strategies, and multi-environment server management.

The ideal candidate brings strong programming and analytical skills, excellent communication abilities, and a collaborative mindset. We're looking for someone who is eager to stay current with emerging technologies-including AI tools and automation frameworks-to drive continuous improvement, enhance user experience, and support JCCC's mission to advance cancer research and patient care.
