  • Translate operational requirements into technical architectures and implementation plans.
  • Ensure code quality, performance, and security through established engineering best practices.

Mission Integration and Deployment :

  • Embed with mission stakeholders to understand operational workflows and requirements.
  • Rapidly prototype, iterate, and deploy solutions in operational environments.
  • Support deployment lifecycle from initial design through production sustainment.
  • Continuously improve deployed solutions based on user feedback and mission needs.
  • Technical Leadership and Collaboration :

  • Collaborate closely with deployment leads, engineers, and mission stakeholders.
  • Provide technical guidance and mentorship to engineering team members.
  • Support troubleshooting, debugging, and resolution of complex technical challenges.
  • Contribute to development of reusable technical components and deployment patterns.
  • Platform and System Optimization :

  • Support integration and optimization of enterprise data platform environments.
  • Develop pipelines, applications, and integrations that enable operational decision-making.
  • Identify opportunities to improve system scalability, performance, and reliability.
  • Stay current with emerging technologies and platform capabilities.
  • Qualifications :

  • Strong software engineering experience in secure, mission-critical environments.
  • Experience designing and deploying scalable software systems.
  • Proficiency in modern programming languages such as Python, Java, or similar.
  • Experience working with enterprise data platforms or distributed systems.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and ability to operate in complex operational environments.
  • Ability to collaborate effectively with technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Active clearance or eligibility preferred.
  • Experience supporting defense, intelligence, or federal government customers strongly preferred.
  • Experience with platforms such as Foundry, Apollo, or similar systems highly valued.
  • Military, intelligence, or national security experience is a plus but not required.
  • Why This Role :

    This is an opportunity to work on mission-critical software systems that directly support national security operations. You will operate in small, highly capable teams with significant ownership, autonomy, and ability to influence technical direction and mission outcomes.

    You will gain exposure to complex operational environments while working alongside experienced engineers, mission operators, and federal stakeholders.
