**Project Overview:** The NOAA Fisheries National Permits System (NPS) provides a common front door to a large variety of commercial and recreational fishing permits issued by the National Marine Fisheries Services. The NPS consists of two web components; a public web site that enables users to apply for new fishing permits, renew existing permits, pay for permits through pay.gov, and receive the new electronic permits. A private back-end web site, is used by internal NOAA Fisheries personnel to administer the permits, reconcile payments and issue payment refunds, and generate ad-hoc and canned permitting reports. This effort is to migrate and modernize eleven Pacific Islands permits from a legacy Filemaker database into the NPS. The effort will encompass developing these eleven permits in the NPS, migrating the legacy data from Filemaker to Oracle, and develop static reports for these new permits. The NPS application is developed using JSPs and Java Servlets, with an Oracle backend. **Primary Responsibilities:** + Proficiently develop scalable and maintainable J2EE applications within an Oracle 19c web, application, and database tier. + Expertise in analyzing, executing, and streamlining DevOps practices.
