Build systems that shape how a city works. Portland Permitting and Development (PP&D) is undergoing a major digital transformation—and we’re looking for a technical lead to help drive it. As the Web Applications & Integrations Lead on the Portland Permitting & Development (PP&D) Vertical Apps Team, you’ll play a key role in reimagining how residents, businesses, and developers interact with the City. Your work will directly improve the permitting experience—making it faster, more intuitive, and more accessible for the people who rely on it. This is more than a maintenance role. It’s an opportunity to modernize critical civic systems, influence technical direction, and help a large organization deliver digital services that truly work for its community.

Real technical influence: Help shape architecture, standards, and modernization strategy. Complex, meaningful challenges: Work across legacy and modern systems in a high-impact domain. Collaborative environment: Partner with engaged stakeholders who care about outcomes.

Connect complex systems: Architect and maintain integrations across Saas and on-prem platforms, ensuring secure, reliable data exchange. Shape technical direction: Influence decisions around architecture, business logic, and integration patterns in modern, database-driven applications. Modernize without disruption: Improve legacy systems and deployment practices while maintaining continuity for critical city services. Raise the bar: Strengthen development standards, automation, and source control practices to improve team velocity and quality. Collaborate across the organization: Partner with stakeholders, leadership, and vendors to deliver solutions that are both practical and user-centered The Tech Environment:You’ll work across a diverse and evolving stack, including:Core platforms: Smart.
