Job Description:
Client is seeking a Technical Specialist contractor analyst/designer/developer (>10 years experience) for a 12-month engagement for the Engineering Application Services Department (EAS) to enhance and maintain a mission-critical application for the department called HiCAMS.
HiCAMS is a custom client-server PowerBuilder application used to track work materials and payments on North Carolina Division of Highways Construction projects. We also have many Java C and interfaces with various internal and external systems that need to be maintained and enhanced. Additionally there is a list of new interfaces and web applications tied to HiCAMS that our clients want to have developed in the future.
The initial assignment will be to solve a Java upgrade problem in our Red Hat Linux server environment. Our Linux administrator wants to upgrade Linux but the upgrade causes our Java interfaces to fail. We need someone who can diagnose the error/problem and create a solution to allow the upgrade and our Java interfaces to work.

After those assignments are complete this person would work on a part of the HiCAMS team to analyze/design/code/test/implement/support data windows in PowerBuilder 10.0 to replace approximately 100 sample test result spreadsheet formats that were coded using an outdated 3rd party software tool. Additional work will involve analyzing/designing/coding/testing bug fixes and other functional enhancements to the system and its interfaces.
