About Us:
eSimplicity is a modern digital services company that works across government, partnering with our clients to improve the health and lives of millions of Americans, ensure the security of all Americans—from soldiers and veterans to kids and the elderly, and defend national interests on the battlefield. Our engineers, designers, and strategists cut through complexity to create intuitive products and services that courageously equip Federal agencies with solutions to transform today for a better tomorrow for all Americans.
Purpose and Scope:
We are seeking a Senior Full Stack Engineer (Front End) to serve as a consultative partner to internal teams and clients on Agentic AI and modern web delivery. You will lead discovery conversations, translate ambiguous needs into clear technical options, and propose pragmatic solutions—then help prototype and ship them end-to-end. You will help define engineering practices and standards at eSimplicity while staying hands-on across the stack with a strong frontend focus and adapting as project needs change.
Responsibilities:
- Lead discovery and consulting sessions with clients and internal teams to clarify goals, constraints, and success metrics; separate true needs from wants.
- Propose Agentic AI-enabled solutions: identify high-ROI opportunities; outline architectures for agent orchestration, tool integrations, data access, and guardrails; communicate tradeoffs and risks.
- Prototype and deliver frontend-first experiences in React/TypeScript with Tailwind or CSS-in-JS; build accessible, reusable components and maintain design system consistency.
- Design, build, and iterate on secure APIs (REST/GraphQL; OpenAPI), integrations, and data flows using Node.js (preferred) or Python; leverage Postgres and Redis.
- Drive consistency and quality across front-end implementations in multi-app or micro frontend environments.
- Communicate clearly: author decision records, design docs, runbooks, and client-facing summaries; present options and recommendations to mixed audiences.
- Participate in Agile processes including daily standups, demos, retrospectives, and sprint planning; collaborate closely across engineering, DevOps, UX, Product, and Scrum Master roles.
Required Qualifications:
- Minimum of 7 years related experience delivering production web applications on small, cross-functional teams.
- Exceptional communication and writing skills; adept at facilitation, stakeholder alignment, and translating complex topics for mixed audiences.
- Demonstrated consultative problem-solving: discovery, option framing, impact/risk analysis, and solution proposals.
- Hands-on experience enabling Agentic AI solutions (e.g., multi-step/agent orchestration, tool-use integration, prompt/eval harnesses, safety/guardrails).

- Familiarity with web accessibility (WCAG and Section 508) and performance optimization best practices.
- Experience with modern web application frameworks such as React.js, Next.js, and Node.js.
- Testing with Jest and Testing Library plus Playwright or Cypress; BDD with Cucumber is a plus.
- Deep understanding of APIs; familiarity with JSON, Web APIs, REST APIs, JSON-RPC, RESTful practices, and GraphQL; experience defining APIs with OpenAPI.
- Experience using modern, open-source software frameworks to prototype and deploy full-stack web applications, including all aspects of server-side processing, data storage, networking, content delivery, and monitoring.
