Program Overview
About The Role
Peraton is seeking a Senior Web Developer (UI, Training Content & Adoption Tools) with instructional technology experience to support platform UI development and lead the development of web-based training content and adoption tools for a federal data integration program. You will build accessible online learning resources and the training metrics dashboard that tracks adoption across government partner offices. This is a fully remote position.
The Department of the Interior (DOI), U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), and NOAA's National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) have identified a critical gap in the federal government's ability to conduct comprehensive Endangered Species Act (ESA) research. While FWS operates an authoritative web-based platform for managing data for terrestrial and freshwater species, it does not currently include NMFS marine and anadromous species data forcing agencies to rely on separate, manual processes. This program closes that gap by integrating marine and anadromous species data into the existing FWS platform, creating a single, unified experience for all ESA-listed species.

Tips for Your Developer Tools Job Search
Showcase your own tooling projects
Hiring managers for developer tools roles expect to see code you've shipped publicly. Link to open-source libraries, CLIs, or SDKs you've built or contributed to, and write a sentence in each project description explaining the problem it solved for other developers.
Quantify developer experience improvements
Generic claims like 'improved build performance' don't land. On your resume, anchor every impact to a metric developers care about: reduced CI run time, faster local setup, or lower API error rates. Numbers that reflect developer productivity cut through.
Filter openings by the platform layer you target
Developer tools is a broad category. Narrow your search with terms like 'platform engineering,' 'DX engineer,' 'SDK,' or 'internal tooling' to surface roles that match your specialty. Applying to a precise match beats applying broadly to any posting with 'tools' in the title.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists developer tools openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Prepare a live demo for the technical screen
Many developer tools interviews include a walkthrough of something you've built. Have a short, rehearsed demo of a real project ready to share in a browser tab or terminal. Interviewers notice when you can explain tradeoffs in design decisions without prompting.
Negotiate around your tech stack preferences
Developer tools teams often have flexibility on languages and toolchains. In offer discussions, clarify which parts of the stack are fixed and which are open. Expressing a grounded preference for a particular runtime or build system signals hands-on depth, not inflexibility.
Developer Tools Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most developer tools engineers?
The companies hiring the most developer tools engineers right now include SAIC, Implify, and Amazon Web Services, with the largest share of openings in California, Michigan, and Virginia, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Demand is highest at cloud platform companies, infrastructure startups, and enterprise software teams building internal developer platforms.
How many developer tools jobs are remote?
About 56% of developer tools openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting how distributed the engineering culture tends to be in this specialty. Roles focused on developer experience, documentation tooling, and SDK development are the most likely to be fully remote, while platform engineering roles that require close collaboration with on-site infrastructure teams skew toward hybrid arrangements.
How do you become a developer tools engineer?
Start by building something other developers can use, even a small CLI or library, and publishing it publicly so hiring managers can evaluate your work directly. Deepen your understanding of build systems, package distribution, and API design patterns. Contributing to established open-source tooling projects builds both practical skill and a visible record. Move toward roles with 'platform,' 'DX,' or 'developer experience' in the title to enter the specialty formally.
How do you get hired in developer tools with little experience?
Focus on shipping something small but polished, such as a command-line tool, a testing helper library, or a VS Code extension, and document it well. Apply to companies that have an internal tooling team rather than a dedicated developer tools product, where the bar for prior specialty experience is lower. Highlight any role where you've automated workflows, improved a build process, or written tooling for teammates, even if that wasn't your official job title.
What does the developer tools interview process look like?
Most developer tools interviews include a resume screen, a technical phone screen covering systems design or language fundamentals, and a take-home or live coding exercise focused on building a small tool or extending an existing API. Final rounds typically include a system design discussion around extensibility and performance, a walkthrough of a past project you've shipped, and a conversation with engineering leadership about developer experience philosophy and team roadmap.
Where can I find and apply to developer tools jobs?
