Responsibilities

Peraton is seeking a Senior Web Developer (UI, Training Content & Adoption Tools) with instructional technology experience to support platform UI development and lead the development of web-based training content and adoption tools for a federal data integration program. You will build accessible online learning resources and the training metrics dashboard that tracks adoption across government partner offices. This is a fully remote position.

The Department of the Interior (DOI), U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), and NOAA's National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) have identified a critical gap in the federal government's ability to conduct comprehensive Endangered Species Act (ESA) research. While FWS operates an authoritative web-based platform for managing data for terrestrial and freshwater species, it does not currently include NMFS marine and anadromous species data forcing agencies to rely on separate, manual processes. This program closes that gap by integrating marine and anadromous species data into the existing FWS platform, creating a single, unified experience for all ESA-listed species.
