Assistant Next Js Jobs in Florida (NOW HIRING)

Job Summary:
Butler Aerospace & Defense is seeking a Full Stack Software Engineer to lead a development team focused on delivering advanced data analytics and AI capabilities. The engineer will be responsible for designing scalable platforms, ensuring data integrity, and developing responsive UI components.
Responsibilities:
• Design and implement a scalable platform that enables advanced analytics and AI driven development acceleration.
• Ensure data integrity, security, and compliance across all platform domains, incorporating archival, disaster recovery, and backup strategies.
• Define and publish robust APIs that expose data and services to front end clients and third party consumers.
• Develop responsive UI components using a modern React framework (e.g., Next.js, Shadcn UI Kit) to deliver dashboards, visualizations, and interactive data views.
• Create and maintain CI/CD pipelines in GitLab for automated testing, linting, and deployment to both cloud based and air gapped environments.
• Integrate third party services such as email/SMS notifications, and learning management standards (SCORM, xAPI, CMI5).
• Write comprehensive unit, integration, and end to end tests to protect against regressions and maintain high code quality.
• Document APIs, data models, and deployment procedures clearly to facilitate cross team collaboration.
• Leverage AI (e.g., Claude, other LLMs) as a core development assistant to accelerate coding, refactoring, test generation, and design validation.
Qualifications:
Required:
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field with supplemental experience (e.g. Aerospace Engineering with experience in software development).
• 6 years delivering full stack software solutions on complex, data intensive programs.
• Experience with version control software, preferably GitLab (repos, merge requests, pipelines).
• Strong grasp of design patterns, automated testing, continuous integration, and code quality practices.
• Familiarity with relational databases, messaging services, REST APIs, and object storage.
• Ability to design and implement responsive user interfaces and dashboards.
• Design and implement a scalable platform that enables advanced analytics and AI driven development acceleration.
• Ensure data integrity, security, and compliance across all platform domains, incorporating archival, disaster recovery, and backup strategies.
• Define and publish robust APIs that expose data and services to front end clients and third party consumers.
• Develop responsive UI components using a modern React framework (e.g., Next.js, Shadcn UI Kit) to deliver dashboards, visualizations, and interactive data views.

• Document APIs, data models, and deployment procedures clearly to facilitate cross team collaboration.
• Leverage AI (e.g., Claude, other LLMs) as a core development assistant to accelerate coding, refactoring, test generation, and design validation.
• Domain expertise in building end to end full stack solutions that address data flow, security, archival, and disaster recovery concerns.
• Strategic vision to design platforms that enable AI augmented development, ensuring that the solution remains adaptable as AI capabilities evolve.
• Ability to leverage AI tools (Cline AI Plugin for VSCode, generative code assistants) to enhance productivity, code quality, and architectural validation, reducing reliance on niche technical specialties.
Preferred:
• Agile methodology experience (Scrum, Kanban) and participation in cross functional Agile teams.
• Advanced DevOps toolset knowledge (Ansible, Nexus, GitLab Runner, Harbor).
• Proficiency in React, Next.js, Node.js, Shadcn UI Kit, FastAPI, and modern front end ecosystems.
• Experience with Apache Superset/Trino for cross platform data querying and analytics.
• Strong scripting abilities (PowerShell, Bash, Python).
• Prior exposure to Turnkey training or learning architectures.
• Experience with Kubernetes and cloud/air gapped deployment models.
• Experience with integrating email/SMS notifications.
• Experience with learning management standards (SCORM, xAPI, CMI5).
