Job description

Start your software career with a company whose entire business is launching them.

SkillStorm builds technology talent for Fortune 100 enterprises and U.S. government agencies. You'll spend 12 weeks in paid, hands‑on training working real, team‑based projects — then deploy directly to an enterprise or government client, effective day one. This isn't a course you pay for. It's a paid role with a clear path from "qualified" to "deployed professional."

We're hiring people early in their technical careers — including recent graduates, career changers with a technical foundation, and transitioning service members and veterans — who have the fundamentals and the drive, and want a structured path into enterprise software work.

Do you qualify? You likely do if you have one of the following:

• A bachelor's degree in a related technical field (Computer Science, Software Engineering, IT, or similar), or
• At least one year of W2 experience in a technical role, or
• Equivalent technical experience we'll review with you individually.

Plus a working understanding of programming fundamentals — data structures, algorithms, databases and SQL, and software development in an object‑oriented language such as Java or C#.

We review every applicant who clears one of those paths individually for fit. If you're not sure whether you qualify, apply — that's our call to make, not yours to rule yourself out of.

A strong fit also looks like:

• Solid problem‑solving and logical reasoning
• Clear written and verbal communication with teammates and stakeholders
• Ability to obtain a U.S. government security clearance
• Open to relocation for client placement
• Legally authorized to work in the U.S. on SkillStorm's W2 (not a C2C arrangement)

Veterans and transitioning service members:

this model — structured training, a clear mission, clearance‑eligible work, relocation handled — is built for the way you already operate. We actively want you in this pipeline.

What you'll do once deployed:

• Build and enhance applications using the languages, frameworks, and tools your client runs
• Write clean, efficient, well‑structured code to professional standards
• Diagnose and fix defects; provide technical support and resolution
• Participate in code reviews — give and receive constructive feedback
• Translate business requirements into technical specifications with stakeholders
• Support testing and deployment to production; maintain technical documentation
• Keep current with industry tools and techniques through ongoing training

Why people choose SkillStorm:

• Competitive salary — a paid role from day one, not paid training you fund
• Enterprise‑grade technology training and certifications
• Work for Fortune 100 companies and government agencies
• Health, vision, dental, and life insurance with 401(k)
• Continuous mentorship and support throughout training and placement
