If you’re passionate about building a better future for individuals, communities, and our country—and you’re committed to working hard to play your part in building that future—consider WGU as the next step in your career.

Driven by a mission to expand access to higher education through online, competency-based degree programs, WGU is also committed to being a great place to work for a diverse workforce of student-focused professionals. The university has pioneered a new way to learn in the 21st century, one that has received praise from academic, industry, government, and media leaders. Whatever your role, working for WGU gives you a part to play in helping students graduate, creating a better tomorrow for themselves and their families.

The salary range for this position takes into account the wide range of factors that are considered in making compensation decisions including but not limited to skill sets; experience and training; licensure and certifications; and other business and organizational needs.

At WGU, it is not typical for an individual to be hired at or near the top of the range for their position, and compensation decisions are dependent on the facts and circumstances of each case. A reasonable estimate of the current range is:

Grade: Technical 406

Pay Range: $98,300.00 - $147,400.00

Job Description

As a Software Engineer I, you’ll contribute directly to building and evolving modern applications that support WGU’s digital experiences. You’ll work across the full stack, partnering with experienced engineers to design, develop, and deliver scalable solutions. This is a hands-on role where you’ll spend the majority of your time coding while also helping improve systems through maintenance and operational excellence. If you’re excited about learning, experimenting with new technologies, and contributing to emerging AI-driven initiatives, this role offers meaningful growth and impact from day one.

This is a full-time, in-office position requiring 5 days per week at our office in Salt Lake City, UT, designed to foster the collaboration and connection that fuel our best work.

Build, test, and maintain full-stack applications using Angular, Java, and Node.js
Contribute to both front-end and back-end development with a balanced 50/50 focus
Translate functional requirements into scalable, reliable technical solutions
Write clean, maintainable code and support documentation for your work
Collaborate with engineers across teams to deliver high-quality features on time
Support ongoing system improvements, including addressing technical debt and operational needs
Identify risks, gaps, or inefficiencies and partner with senior engineers to propose solutions

What You’ll Bring

Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or related field
2+ years of experience developing web-based applications and services
Proficiency in Angular, Java, and Node.js
Experience using GitHub for version control
Strong understanding of software development fundamentals, including testing, debugging, and system design
Experience working with databases and integrating third-party systems
Ability to communicate effectively and collaborate within a team environment

Bonus Points

Experience with Salesforce
Familiarity with AWS, Kafka, Jira, and Confluence
Exposure to AI tools such as Amazon Kiro
Experience working in Agile or Scrum environments
Experience building or supporting cloud-native applications

Experience in Lieu of Education

At WGU, our mission drives everything we do, including how we hire. Our interview experience is designed to give qualified candidates the opportunity to show their best work through meaningful conversations and collaboration.
We thoughtfully review every application and invite forward the candidates whose experience and potential best align with the role and our mission.

Introductory call (30 min)
