Full Stack Security Developer - IAM
A leading technology and cybersecurity organization is seeking a
Full Stack Security Developer to join its core Cybersecurity team in
Philadelphia, PA on a
contract basis. This role will focus on architecting, developing, and maintaining security-focused applications supporting Identity and Access Management (IAM), using technologies including
Angular, Java 17, Spring Boot, Spring Security, Node.js, REST APIs, MySQL, MongoDB, and AWS. This is a hybrid opportunity requiring the candidate to work
onsite 2-3 days per week.
This is an opportunity to take a
lead role in building security tools that operate at enterprise scale. The team manages multiple applications supporting the security organization and is looking for a developer who can do more than simply execute requirements-they want someone who can
design solutions, bring new ideas to the table, lead technical efforts, mentor team members, and collaborate directly with stakeholders. You'll work across the full development lifecycle while helping the team continue its cloud-native journey and migrate applications to AWS. If you enjoy solving complex problems, working in a security-first environment, and having ownership over the solutions you build, this role offers strong opportunities to expand your full-stack, cloud, and cybersecurity expertise.
