Junior Developer

Launch your enterprise software career, paid from the start.

SkillStorm exists to turn early-career technologists into deployed professionals. We partner with Fortune 100 companies and U.S. government agencies to deliver skilled software talent, and you could be part of that pipeline. You'll begin with 12 weeks of paid, hands-on training, working on team-based projects that mirror real client work. When training wraps, you deploy directly to an enterprise or government client. There's no tuition and no cost to you. This is a salaried position from your first day, with a defined path from trainee to client-ready engineer.

We're looking for people at the start of their technical careers, including recent graduates and career changers with a technical background, who have solid fundamentals and want a structured way into enterprise software.

What you'll need:

• A bachelor's degree
• 2-3 years of W2 work experience, ideally in a technical role
• A working knowledge of programming fundamentals: data structures, algorithms, databases and SQL, and software development in an object-oriented language like Java or C#
• The ability to obtain a U.S. government security clearance
• Availability to work in office in Ashburn, VA
• Legal authorization to work in the U.S. as a SkillStorm W2 employee (C2C arrangements are not available)

You'll stand out if you bring:

• Strong problem-solving and logical reasoning skills
• Clear written and verbal communication with teammates and stakeholders

Your work on client assignment:

• Develop and improve applications using your client's languages, frameworks, and tools
• Write clean, efficient, maintainable code that meets professional standards
• Troubleshoot and resolve defects, and provide technical support
• Take part in code reviews, offering and receiving constructive feedback
• Work with stakeholders to turn business requirements into technical specifications
• Support testing and production deployments, and keep technical documentation current
• Stay sharp on industry tools and practices through ongoing training

What SkillStorm offers:

• Competitive salary from day one, with no out-of-pocket training costs
