Job Title Senior Java Full Stack Developer & DevSecOps EngineerWork Location & Reporting Address Dearborn, MI 48124Vendor Rate $50.70/Hr.Contract duration 6Target Start Date 05 May 2026
Job Details:Key Responsibilities
- Full Stack Development (Primary Focus)
Backend Excellence: Design and develop scalable microservices using Java 21+ and Spring Boot, focusing on the Core Order Creation and Validation domains.
Frontend Innovation: Build responsive, modular UI components using React and NodeJS within a Micro-frontend (MFE) and Backend-for-Frontend (BFF) architecture.
API Design: Develop secure, performant RESTful APIs and integrate them with Apigee and Ford s APS (Authorization Policy Server) for fine-grained access control.
Data Management: Write optimized queries and manage schemas for PostgreSQL (Cloud SQL) and MongoDB, while leveraging Redis (MemoryStore) for caching.
- DevSecOps & Pipeline Ownership
Pipeline-as-Code: Build and maintain Tekton pipelines (Ford standard) to automate the build, test, and deployment of your services.
Shift-Left Security: Proactively manage and remediate findings from Ford s security stack: Cycode (Hardcoded secrets), 42Crunch (API vulnerabilities), SonarQube (Code quality), and FOSSA (Open-source compliance).
Governance Compliance: Ensure all deployments meet Ford s Governance Scan requirements to maintain an "Always-Green" production-ready status.
- Cloud-Native Operations & Observability
Containerization: Containerize applications using Docker and manage deployments to GCP Cloud Run and CaaS/GKE clusters.
Infrastructure-as-Code: Use Terraform to provision application-tier resources like Pub/Sub topics, Cloud Storage buckets, and Database instances.
Full-Stack Monitoring: Implement telemetry and alerts using Dynatrace and Cloud Monitoring, and integrate Amplitude to track business-level insights and user journeys.
Technical Requirements
- Development Stack (Mandatory):
Java: Expert knowledge of Java (21+) and the Spring Boot ecosystem (Data, Security, Cloud).
Web: Proficiency in React, NodeJS, and modern state management. Experience with MFE patterns is highly preferred.
Database: Hands-on experience with PostgreSQL and NoSQL (MongoDB).
- DevSecOps & GCP (Mandatory):
CI/CD: Hands-on experience with Tekton Pipelines and GitHub Actions.
Security: Proven ability to troubleshoot and fix vulnerabilities identified by Cycode, 42Crunch, and SonarQube.
Cloud: Experience deploying to GCP Cloud Run and understanding of VPC/Networking basics within a managed landing zone.
- Tools & Scripting:
Proficiency in Terraform for application-level IaC.
Strong scripting skills in Bash or Python for automation.
Core Competencies
The "T-Shaped" Engineer: Ability to pivot seamlessly between writing a complex Spring Boot feature and debugging a failing Tekton build step.
Analytical Problem Solving: Ability to troubleshoot distributed systems issues, from a React rendering bug to a PostgreSQL deadlock or a Cloud Armor WAF block.
Adaptive Learning: Eagerness to master new Ford-specific tools (APS, Eventarc, etc.) as the platform scales.
Preferred Qualifications
Previous experience as a developer within the Ford Motor Company ecosystem.
Familiarity with Ford s Identity & Access Management (APS / Microsoft Entra ID).
Experience with Event-Driven Architecture using GCP Pub/Sub.
Understanding of Automation Testing frameworks (Cypress/Playwright) to integrate into the CI/CD loop.
Role Summary & Adaptability
As a Senior Full Stack Developer with DevSecOps expertise, you will be a core contributor to the Ford Order Fulfillment (OF) Platform. Your primary mission is to design and develop high-performance microservices and micro-frontends (MFE) while ensuring they are born "secure and deployable."
You will operate in a high-velocity Monorepo environment using Java/Spring Boot and NodeJS/React (MFE+BFF). Unlike traditional roles, you will own the full lifecycle of your code from initial feature development to configuring its Tekton pipeline and ensuring it passes all Ford-mandated security gates (Cycode, 42Crunch, etc.). This is a dynamic environment where the tech stack and Ford s architectural standards evolve; you must possess a growth mindset and the agility to adopt new GCP services and security protocols as they emerge.
