About the role

This is a web-based application with off-line capability implemented centrally at MN.IT Services@DHS and accessible via secure URLs.

• Developing a check-in mechanism moving data from the local computer to the centralized data store while resolving any conflicts due to the possibility of concurrent updates to both sets of data
• Detecting and preventing problems related to browser limitations related to HTML5 and associated standards support (i.e. space limitations, non-support of indexeddb, etc.)
• Ensuring the above functionality is architected in such a way as to be generally usable by any similarly-designed MN.IT application
• The web application supports approximately 3,000 external users offering online/offline connectivity for user workflows.
• The system will be built to MN.IT@DHS technical standards, which comply with Statewide Enterprise Architecture standards.
