Software Engineer

G2 Ops, Inc. • Virginia Beach, VA

2d • $85,000 - $100,000 • Hybrid

About The Position

G2 Ops is seeking a motivated, collaborative mid-level Software Engineer to support Java-based modeling tool capabilities, SysML model generation, and AI-assisted engineering workflows. The role contributes to software engineering, model-based systems engineering, and digital engineering for mission-critical defense and technology initiatives. The position is based at the G2 Ops office in Virginia Beach, Virginia, with an in-office setting and hybrid or flexible scheduling potentially available according to program requirements.

The engineer will develop and maintain Java software components and application extensions; build automated data processing, visualization, and workflow-generation capabilities; and maintain parsers and data models for structured JSON inputs that drive model generation. The role also involves extending internal utility libraries that wrap modeling APIs and collaborating with AI engineering teams to align plugin behavior with language-model output and improve AI-assisted generation workflows.

The position includes diagnosing issues across user interfaces, parsing, API integration, and backend generation logic; improving code quality, validation, and testing across multiple repositories; and coordinating with cross-functional teams on iterative feature delivery. The work supports systems engineers in developing high-quality models for defense systems and involves software engineering, AI integration, and model-based systems engineering.

This is a full-time position supporting mission-focused customer environments. The successful candidate must be able to obtain and maintain an active DoD Secret clearance. Outside employment or activities must not create conflicts of interest with company or customer responsibilities.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical field.
• At least 3 years of professional Java development experience.
• Experience designing and maintaining object-oriented systems in production codebases.
• Strong proficiency with JSON parsing and serialization, and schema-driven data models.
• Ability to debug complex workflows across user interfaces, parsing, API integration, and backend logic.
• Experience integrating software with REST or HTTP-based APIs.
• Strong communication skills and ability to collaborate across technical teams.
• Ability to obtain and maintain the required security clearance.

Nice To Haves

• Experience building plugins for Cameo Systems Modeler, MagicDraw, or similar modeling tools.
• Familiarity with SysML, MBSE, and model-based engineering concepts.
• Experience with modeling tool APIs, sessions and transactions, and diagram automation.
• Experience with Eclipse-based plugin environments or JavaFX/Swing UI development.
• Experience integrating AI/LLM capabilities into engineering workflows.
• Familiarity with prompt and schema design for structured LLM output.

Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain Java-based software components and software application extensions.
• Implement capabilities for automated data processing, visualization, and workflow generation, including system architecture, component relationships, and process workflows.
• Build and maintain parsers and data models for structured JSON inputs used to drive model generation.
• Use and extend internal utility libraries that wrap modeling APIs for creating semantic and presentation elements.
• Collaborate with AI engineering teams to align plugin behavior with LLM output expectations and improve AI-assisted generation workflows.
• Diagnose and resolve issues across user interfaces, parsing, API integration, and backend generation logic.
• Contribute to code quality improvements, validation logic, and testing strategies across a multi-repository codebase.
• Support iterative feature delivery and coordinate with cross-functional teams to align plugin capabilities with modeling workflows.

Benefits

• Company-paid medical, dental, and vision insurance for eligible employees and family members.
• Company-paid life insurance and short-term and long-term disability insurance for eligible employees.
• 401(k) plan with discretionary employer matching.
• 10 paid holidays.
• Paid time off (PTO).
• Educational assistance.
• Professional development opportunities.
• Performance recognition programs.
• Resources supporting long-term career growth and work-life balance.
