Technical Lead, Drupal

For People is improving government digital services for the disadvantaged population. We work directly with government agencies to modernize software, systems, and platforms so that they better serve people.

Every month, hundreds of thousands of people go looking for facts about Medicare and Medicaid. They are researchers, reporters, policy staff, and health care providers. When the data is hard to find, a file is too large to post, or a column quietly changes its name between releases, their work slows down or goes wrong.

This project supports the website where the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) publishes that data for the public. It holds a large catalog of datasets, lookup tools, and dashboards from many parts of the agency, available as downloads, interactive tools, and a public API. As Technical Lead, you will be the top technical authority for the team that builds and runs it.

You will keep the site fast, secure, and accessible, and you will lead the engineering behind its next stage, including larger data files, self-service publishing for the CMS offices that own the data, and bringing CMS data that is now spread across other agency websites onto one site.

This position is a full-time position contingent on For People being awarded a federal contract. If awarded, this position’s expected start date is February 2027.
