Lead Software Architect (ColdFusion Legacy Support & Java Modernization)

We are seeking an expert-level Senior ColdFusion Developer to step in as the lead software architect for a nationwide enterprise providing concierge, security, janitorial, and maintenance services . In this role, you will be responsible for managing, maintaining, and upgrading a suite of mission-critical internal applications from Adobe ColdFusion 2021 to 2025, which are currently backed by older Microsoft SQL Server databases . A strong understanding of JavaScript is essential, as you will be supporting and modernizing legacy applications—such as budget tracking and time-and-attendance systems—that currently rely on older JavaScript libraries . The ideal candidate will also have extensive experience managing high-traffic integrations via REST/SOAP APIs (including Twilio for SMS broadcasting and Microsoft Azure), and finding creative ways to maintain high-availability systems with minimal maintenance windows. Importantly, the ultimate goal for the organization is to update and transition these legacy applications to modern, containerized Java-based platforms, so prior experience converting ColdFusion applications to Java is a huge plus.
