Each posting is classified from its text, not its title: the kind of work, how much of it is production code, pre-sales weight, time at customer sites, travel, remote arrangement, level and posted base pay. The site also publishes the aggregates: median pay by level, metro, company and kind of work, and which companies started hiring FDEs each week. Every page under https://nextmove.md/fde is served this way; the index of pages is https://nextmove.md/llms.txt. # Mid-Level Software Developer Canonical URL: https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/a000ce3ee50e6823 TeamWorx Security posts a mid-level FDE role to build what the customer runs, remote, hiring in Maryland, at $90,000–$130,000 base, below the mid-level FDE median of $149,000 across 106 postings with pay.

The candidate must be eligible to obtain and maintain federal suitability, a government-issued PIV credential, and required system access. The Opportunity TeamWorx Security is seeking a Software Developer to build applications, automation, and tools for a federal government client. The work replaces manual processes and disconnected spreadsheets with practical software that people use every day to plan work, manage requirements, and make decisions. The client is an enterprise organization serving many business lines, so projects change often.

What You'll Be Doing - Develop, test, deploy, and maintain applications, automation, and integrations using Python, JavaScript, Google Apps Script, SQL, APIs, and modern web frameworks. - Work with government stakeholders and senior developers to understand requirements, build working versions quickly, and refine them based on user feedback. - Build data-driven tools, dashboards, and interfaces that make complex information easy to use. - Deliver in short Agile sprints, including testing, user acceptance, production support, and updates to existing tools. - Take ownership of assigned work through production, raising risks and blockers early and documenting your code so others can support and extend it. What We Think You'll Need - Bachelor's degree in computer science, software engineering, or a related field, or equivalent professional experience. - 5 or more years of software development experience. - Experience across front-end interfaces, back-end services, APIs, and databases. - Proficiency with Python, JavaScript, and SQL. - Hands-on experience developing with Google Workspace and Google Apps Script. - Experience with version control, testing practices, and troubleshooting production issues. Nice to Have - Experience with CI/CD and cloud deployment. - Experience integrating AI or workflow automation into applications. - Familiarity with federal requirements such as Section 508 accessibility.
