Ascension LLC is seeking a hands-on Lead Developer to architect and deliver a modern, scalable WebApp that replaces legacy FileNet-based workflows with a Microsoft-centric solution. This role is critical to the success of a high-visibility Proof of Concept (POC) supporting WSSC’s digital transformation initiative.

The ideal candidate is a full-stack technical leader who thrives at the intersection of application development, document management, and enterprise integration, with proven experience building React-based applications integrated with backend services and platforms such as SharePoint and Oracle.

This individual will play a central role in designing, developing, and integrating end-to-end workflows including order submission, document processing, metadata-driven search, and automated approval workflows. The work directly supports WSSC’s objective to modernize warehouse operations and replace legacy scanning/document systems with a cloud-enabled, intelligent document processing architecture .

Summary of the Contractor Role

The Lead Developer will be responsible for designing and delivering a functional WebApp (React preferred) that supports both:

• Warehouse Order Management workflows (submission, approval, resubmission, backorder processing)
• Document scanning and processing workflows (OCR/ICR, metadata extraction, indexing, retrieval)

This role requires a developer who is:

• Solution-oriented and highly technical, capable of translating business workflows into scalable applications
• Self-driven and adaptable, able to work in a fast-paced POC environment with evolving requirements
• Detail-oriented, ensuring data validation, document integrity, and workflow accuracy
• Collaborative, working closely with architects, stakeholders, and integration teams

The developer will implement key system capabilities including:

• React-based UI development
• Oracle EBS integration for validation and data retrieval
• SharePoint Embedded integration for document storage, tagging, and retrieval
• OCR/ICR processing integration (Azure Document Intelligence preferred)
• Workflow automation (approvals, notifications, versioning)

This role is essential to demonstrating feasibility, scalability, and user experience for a future enterprise-wide implementation.

• Configure and integrate SharePoint Embedded for document storage, metadata tagging, versioning, and retrieval
• Implement OCR/ICR processing workflows using Azure Document Intelligence or similar tools
• Build metadata-driven search and document retrieval interfaces
• Develop workflow automation including approval routing, notifications, and status tracking
• Create batch monitoring dashboards for scanning operations and document processing
• Ensure secure authentication and SSO integration (Microsoft AD)
• Collaborate with Solution Architect and stakeholders to refine requirements and system design
• Conduct testing, debugging, and performance optimization
• Document system architecture, APIs, and development processes
