Who We Are
With three campuses along Colorado’s Front Range, FRCC is the state’s largest community college. We enroll close to 28,000 students annually from our diverse service area, which offers a variety of cultural and recreational activities.
Each year approximately 5,000 FRCC students transfer to four-year universities and FRCC offers more than 36 career training programs that prepare students for immediate employment and rewarding careers. Last year, more than 5,000 high school students took concurrent enrollment classes with us, earning college credit without having to pay college tuition. And we were recently ranked as one of the “Top Online Colleges” in the country by Newsweek.
One of FRCC’s main goals is to offer educational excellence for everyone. The college’s strong commitment to student success means we start by creating an inclusive and equitable environment—one where both students and employees feel they belong and are supported. FRCC’s focus on diversity, equity and inclusion is woven into the fabric of our college conversations and decision-making processes. We are actively seeking to hire a workforce that reflects the diversity of our student body.

Keeping Washington Clean and Evergreen
Build the future of software at Ecology — not just the next feature.
Ecology is at the start of a multi-year modernization effort, and we’re being blunt about it: our systems are outdated, complex, and overdue for reinvention. We’re moving toward modular, cloud-native, API-first architectures, and we need developers who don’t just tolerate change — they drive it.
This isn’t a role where you inherit polished systems. You’ll help dismantle monoliths, design clean microservices, and set the engineering standards that will guide an entire agency for years. If you’re energized by modernization, experimentation, and building golden paths where none exist yet, you’ll feel right at home.
We’re looking for two journey-level developers who care about clean architecture, thrive in Agile teams, and see modern tooling—including AI-assisted development—as a way to work smarter, not riskier. You’ll collaborate with product, architecture, security, and platform engineering partners to design secure, accessible, scalable applications that replace decades of legacy complexity.
If “we’ve always done it this way” makes your eyebrow twitch, then we’re the team for you!
The Department of Ecology is hiring two IT Application Development - Journey positions within the Information Technology Services Office (ITSO).
Location:
Headquarters Office in Lacey, WA .
Upon hire, you must live within a commutable distance from the duty station.
Schedule:
The positions are eligible for telework and flexible schedule options.
You may telework most of your work time with occasional in-person meetings and activities.
Schedules are dependent upon position needs and are subject to change.
Application Timeline:
Apply by December 17, 2025
The positions will remain open until filled. The agency reserves the right to make a hire at any time after application review begins. Applications received after the date above may not be considered.
Duties
Do you thrive in an Agile environment where experimentation, rapid iteration, and continuous improvement are the norm? Are you excited to use modern AI tools—from code generation to automated testing—to boost your productivity and enhance code quality? With a growth mindset and a willingness to learn, you can help shape reusable patterns, strengthen team practices, and advance Ecology’s long-term digital transformation. This is a role where you don’t just write code—you influence the future of how the agency builds software.
In this role, you will step into a journey-level application developer position at the forefront of Ecology’s digital modernization efforts. Each day, you will design, build, and refine cloud-native applications using MACH principles—microservices, API-first design, cloud-native patterns, and headless architecture. You will collaborate closely with product owners, testers, analysts, and fellow developers to deliver secure, scalable, and accessible solutions.
What you will do:
Modernize and Modularize Our Application Landscape
Analyze long-standing monolithic systems and help carve them into well-defined services.
Build microservices, adapters, and integration layers that peel functionality from legacy environments without breaking existing operations.
Apply MACH principles — microservices, API-first, cloud-native, headless — to drive consistency and long-term sustainability.
Design Clean, Scalable, Cloud-Native Applications
Build and document RESTful APIs and modern service interfaces.
Collaborate with architects to shape reference designs, reusable patterns, and organization-wide engineering standards.
Design systems that scale, adapt, and evolve rather than accumulate more complexity.
Establish the Playbook for Modern Development at Ecology
Create templates, shared libraries, and golden-path documentation that accelerate future development.
Influence CI/CD patterns, DevSecOps practices, and platform engineering norms.
Help define how new services are built, deployed, tested, and secured.
Use AI-Assisted Tools Responsibly and Effectively
Leverage AI tools for boilerplate, test generation, and safe refactoring.
Validate AI-generated code for accuracy, security, and maintainability — no blind trust, no shortcuts.
Share best practices with teammates adopting new AI workflows.
Build Quality and Security Into Everything
Write robust unit, integration, and contract tests that support automated pipelines.
Contribute to build-and-deploy workflows, test automation, security scanning, and secrets management.
Apply secure coding practices, meet state/federal compliance requirements, and build accessible interfaces that follow WCAG 2.1 AA.
Collaborate, Mentor, and Continuously Improve
Work in an Agile product team that iterates quickly and learns from experimentation.
Mentor peers transitioning to modern frameworks and architectural patterns.
Communicate clearly across technical and non-technical partners to drive shared understanding and progress.
Qualifications
For detailed information on how we calculate experience, please visit our Recruitment website .

Keeping Washington Clean and Evergreen
Build the future of software at Ecology — not just the next feature.
Ecology is at the start of a multi-year modernization effort, and we’re being blunt about it: our systems are outdated, complex, and overdue for reinvention. We’re moving toward modular, cloud-native, API-first architectures, and we need developers who don’t just tolerate change — they drive it.
This isn’t a role where you inherit polished systems. You’ll help dismantle monoliths, design clean microservices, and set the engineering standards that will guide an entire agency for years. If you’re energized by modernization, experimentation, and building golden paths where none exist yet, you’ll feel right at home.
We’re looking for two journey-level developers who care about clean architecture, thrive in Agile teams, and see modern tooling—including AI-assisted development—as a way to work smarter, not riskier. You’ll collaborate with product, architecture, security, and platform engineering partners to design secure, accessible, scalable applications that replace decades of legacy complexity.
If “we’ve always done it this way” makes your eyebrow twitch, then we’re the team for you!
The Department of Ecology is hiring two IT Application Development - Journey positions within the Information Technology Services Office (ITSO).
Location:
Headquarters Office in Lacey, WA .
Upon hire, you must live within a commutable distance from the duty station.
Schedule:
The positions are eligible for telework and flexible schedule options.
You may telework most of your work time with occasional in-person meetings and activities.
Schedules are dependent upon position needs and are subject to change.
Application Timeline:
Apply by December 17, 2025
The positions will remain open until filled. The agency reserves the right to make a hire at any time after application review begins. Applications received after the date above may not be considered.
Duties
Do you thrive in an Agile environment where experimentation, rapid iteration, and continuous improvement are the norm? Are you excited to use modern AI tools—from code generation to automated testing—to boost your productivity and enhance code quality? With a growth mindset and a willingness to learn, you can help shape reusable patterns, strengthen team practices, and advance Ecology’s long-term digital transformation. This is a role where you don’t just write code—you influence the future of how the agency builds software.
In this role, you will step into a journey-level application developer position at the forefront of Ecology’s digital modernization efforts. Each day, you will design, build, and refine cloud-native applications using MACH principles—microservices, API-first design, cloud-native patterns, and headless architecture. You will collaborate closely with product owners, testers, analysts, and fellow developers to deliver secure, scalable, and accessible solutions.
What you will do:
Modernize and Modularize Our Application Landscape
Analyze long-standing monolithic systems and help carve them into well-defined services.
Build microservices, adapters, and integration layers that peel functionality from legacy environments without breaking existing operations.
Apply MACH principles — microservices, API-first, cloud-native, headless — to drive consistency and long-term sustainability.
Design Clean, Scalable, Cloud-Native Applications
Build and document RESTful APIs and modern service interfaces.
Collaborate with architects to shape reference designs, reusable patterns, and organization-wide engineering standards.
Design systems that scale, adapt, and evolve rather than accumulate more complexity.
Establish the Playbook for Modern Development at Ecology
Create templates, shared libraries, and golden-path documentation that accelerate future development.
Influence CI/CD patterns, DevSecOps practices, and platform engineering norms.
Help define how new services are built, deployed, tested, and secured.
Use AI-Assisted Tools Responsibly and Effectively
Leverage AI tools for boilerplate, test generation, and safe refactoring.
Validate AI-generated code for accuracy, security, and maintainability — no blind trust, no shortcuts.
Share best practices with teammates adopting new AI workflows.
Build Quality and Security Into Everything
Write robust unit, integration, and contract tests that support automated pipelines.
Contribute to build-and-deploy workflows, test automation, security scanning, and secrets management.
Apply secure coding practices, meet state/federal compliance requirements, and build accessible interfaces that follow WCAG 2.1 AA.
Collaborate, Mentor, and Continuously Improve
Work in an Agile product team that iterates quickly and learns from experimentation.
Mentor peers transitioning to modern frameworks and architectural patterns.
Communicate clearly across technical and non-technical partners to drive shared understanding and progress.
