• Analyze user requirements to derive software design and performance requirements
• Architect and implement scalable front‑end and back‑end solutions
• Develop and optimize algorithms to meet strict performance, timing and system constraints
• Provide technical leadership across multiple software development teams
• Oversee software development efforts to ensure alignment with project constraints and delivery timelines
• Collaborate with system and hardware engineers to define requirements, interfaces and system capabilities
• Evaluate and recommend technologies, tools and development processes
• Support system design decisions including COTS/GOTS integration, reuse strategies and architecture trade‑offs
• Review, test and validate software components to ensure adherence to design and quality standards
• Ensure quality control across all developed and modified software

• Produce and review technical documentation and reports
• Mentor developers and delegate programming and testing responsibilities across teams

Qualifications

U.S. citizenship and a national security clearance (TS/SCI+FSP) are required. You should hold a bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a related discipline from an accredited institution, or have four (4) additional years of software engineering experience to substitute for the degree. Fifteen (15) years of experience as a software engineer on programs of similar scope and complexity is also required.

• Front‑end development expertise (10+ years) with JavaScript, TypeScript, React, Java, or Spring Framework
• Experience designing and developing complex, large‑scale software systems
• Strong experience with system architecture, performance optimization and algorithm development
• Experience leading multiple development teams and large software efforts
• Ability to work across the full software development lifecycle

What Will Set You Apart

• Experience with containerization and orchestration technologies (Docker, Kubernetes)
• Experience with messaging systems such as RabbitMQ
• Experience with application server administration (e.g., Tomcat)
• Strong background in modern DevOps practices and scalable system design
• Experience selecting and implementing software development methodologies
