This role is for a hands-on engineer and someone who loves writing code, building systems end-to-end, and solving real-world technical challenges in secure, distributed environments.

Design and implement APIs, data pipelines, and simulation runtime logic that connect and enable mission applications.
Develop software using modern programming languages such as Java, Python, C++, or TypeScript/Angular.
Write clean, testable, and maintainable code following secure coding and software engineering best practices.
Build and integrate modular microservices to improve scalability, maintainability, and interoperability.
Build and deploy containerized, cloud-native services using Docker, Kubernetes, and CI/CD pipelines (GitLab, Jenkins, or equivalent).
Implement Infrastructure-as-Code and automation scripts to accelerate deployment and configuration management.
Contribute to secure deployments across hybrid or disconnected environments (IL4–IL6, AWS GovCloud, or on-prem).
Develop distributed systems and data integration frameworks using message buses such as Kafka or Redis.
Engineer data flow between analytic, AI, and simulation components to support real-time mission use cases.
Collaborate with system engineers and architects to ensure interoperability across software ecosystems.
Build and manage databases (PostgreSQL, MongoDB, graph DBs) and model complex data relationships.
Develop data services that feed analytics pipelines or integrate AI/ML outputs into runtime systems.
Work with serialization and exchange formats such as JSON, Protobuf, GeoJSON, or KML.
Write, test, and deploy software within secure or classified environments.
Automate testing and monitoring to ensure performance, reliability, and repeatable deployments.
Support the transition of prototypes to operational systems, focusing on maintainability and observability.

Must be a U.S. citizen and be willing to obtain and maintain a secruity clearance, as needed.
4–6 years of professional software engineering experience.
Strong full-stack or systems engineering background.
Proficiency in one or more of the following: Java, Python, C++, or TypeScript/Angular.
Experience building containerized, cloud-native solutions using Docker, Kubernetes, and CI/CD pipelines.
Understanding of distributed systems and message buses (Kafka, Redis, etc.).
Exposure to DevSecOps, Zero-Trust, or ATO/RMF processes in DoD environments.

Experience developing or integrating analytics and AI models into production systems.
Familiarity with databases such as PostgreSQL, MongoDB, or graph databases.
Experience deploying code in IL4–IL6 or edge/disconnected environments.
Knowledge of Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform, CloudFormation, or CDK).
Active Secret clearance (TS/SCI preferred).
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical field.
