UI/UX Engineer

Turn statutory Medicare reporting obligations into forms real submitters can complete correctly the first time.

This position is contingent upon contract award.

The CMS Fee-for-Service Data Collection System (FFSDCS) is the mission system through which the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services collects statutorily mandated data from drug manufacturers, clinical laboratories, ground ambulance organizations and hospitals. You will design and build the submission, certification and help-desk-facing interfaces those organizations use.

The measure of success here is unusually concrete: every design decision either reduces rejected submissions and help-desk volume during a high-stakes collection window, or it does not. Accessibility is not a checkbox at the end — it is a delivery requirement on every user-facing change.

• Four statutory collections: Average Sales Price, Clinical Laboratory Fee Schedule, Ground Ambulance, and Off-Campus Hospital Outpatient acquisition data
• Approximately 17,800 registered reporting users across those collections
• High Value Asset, FISMA Moderate application in the CMS Cloud (AWS GovCloud)
• ReactJS front end against Java/Spring Boot microservices, Amazon Aurora, Kubernetes
• Government Design System and the CMS-licensed KendoUI component library
• Two-week sprints with production releases multiple times per month

Hybrid role. Baltimore, Maryland area strongly preferred for proximity to the CMS Woodlawn campus. Eastern Time core hours in support of a Monday to Friday, 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM ET service window. All work is performed within the United States.

• Design and implement ReactJS interfaces for submission forms, file-upload validation feedback, registration and identity-management flows, and in-app guidance across all four modules
• Own Section 508 and WCAG 2.1 AA conformance for every user-facing change: build accessible components, run automated and assistive-technology testing, and produce conformance evidence
• Partner with the user researcher and module subject matter experts to turn research findings and help-desk trend data into iterative UX improvements and first-pass submission-acceptance gains
• Contribute production-quality code through the government GitHub workflow: pull requests traced to JIRA stories, peer review, 90% or greater automated test coverage on new code, and pipeline accessibility checks
• Support reporting-cycle readiness through freeze-aware release planning, pre-window usability validation and post-window retrospectives with the Customer Support Team

This position is contingent upon contract award. Candidates selected will receive a contingent offer and will begin the federal suitability and credentialing process, which can take several weeks to several months. Employment begins only upon award and successful adjudication.

• U.S. work authorization, and residence in the United States for at least three of the last five years — a CMS background-investigation eligibility requirement
