Products
The team already has complete engineering ownership of two customer-facing web applications: Verisign Account Manager (VAC) and Verisign Content Management System (VCMS). One more application will be transferred to the team in the very near future.
Verisign Account Manager is a web-based for account management application for Verisign registrar customers.
Verisign Content Management System is a custom content management platform consisting of a front-end for content creation and administration, and a backend exposing a set of API endpoints which are consumed by several other customer-facing portals offered by Verisign.
The business logic layer of both applications is implemented with Java and Spring Boot. VCMS relies on PostgreSQL for data persistence.
Team
We rely on Scrum to structure our work, with tickets prioritized in Jira. Our code is located in an internal GitHub; we follow Git Flow with pull requests, code reviews, and extensive automation. For continuous delivery, we use Jenkins with pipelines, and our product deployments are automated with Terraform and Ansible. We do builds for each code change as well as nightly builds, and we are working towards Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment.
While fluent in Java, it is beneficial if the candidate has experience working with some of the mentioned tools. Others can be learned as needed.
