Dhhs Programmer Analyst

Programmer Analyst 6/Senior Technical Lead Developer

The Lead Developer will provide technical leadership to the application development team, including the design, development, implementation, and support of complex Java applications within the MDHHS Infectious Disease area. The resource will collaborate closely with business stakeholders to ensure that the technical design and implementation of the eCR Rules Engine Project align with business requirements, technical standards, and operational needs. The Lead Developer will play a critical role in streamlining business processes, maintaining data integrity, ensuring compliance with State of Michigan Enterprise Architecture (SEM) and SUITE standards, and implementing appropriate application security measures. In addition to providing technical leadership and guidance to other developers, the resource will actively participate in application development, enhancement, integration, maintenance, and implementation activities. The resource will also contribute to technical analysis, solution design, and the development of technology roadmaps for supported applications to ensure long-term sustainability and alignment with departmental objectives. The eCR Rules Engine project will address critical MDHHS business needs, particularly benefiting MDSS and other downstream systems through the development of a centralized, enterprise-wide solution. Strong technical oversight is essential to review and ensure that the solution's architecture, technical design, and code development align with State of Michigan development standards and best practices. Without appropriate technical leadership and oversight, design deficiencies and coding errors could result in data integrity issues, increased maintenance costs, and potential inaccuracies in the information processed and reported to state and federal agencies. Ensuring technical quality, scalability, security, and compliance from the outset will help minimize these risks and support the long-term sustainability and reliability of the enterprise solution.
