About Neuma Consulting

At Neuma Consulting LLC, we believe that inspired lives produce inspired solutions. As a minority-owned, mission-driven government consulting firm based in Northern Virginia, we partner with defense and intelligence agencies to revolutionize how intelligence is produced, visualized, disseminated, and consumed. We are intentional about building an environment where talented people can do their best work—professionally and personally—while delivering high-impact solutions to some of the nation’s most critical missions.

Your work will enable and accelerate mission applications across DIA by providing secure, reliable, and scalable shared services.

The Challenge

As an engineer, your work will sit at the core of DIA’s application ecosystem. Every authentication request, shared dataset, cross-domain interaction, and system integration depends on the services your team delivers. This is not a single-application role—it’s an opportunity to build and evolve the foundational capabilities that many mission systems rely on every day. You’ll balance hands-on development with ensuring solutions are secure, performant, and designed to scale as mission needs evolve.

What You’ll Do

• Design, develop, test, and maintain full stack web applications and backend services
• Build and support enterprise capabilities including:
• REST-based APIs
• Shared data services
• Authentication and authorization services
• Operational dashboards and platform tools
• Develop modern applications using Node.js, TypeScript, and modern frontend frameworks
• Design and optimize data solutions leveraging PostgreSQL, Redis, Elasticsearch, MongoDB, and SQL technologies
• Collaborate with cross-functional Agile teams to deliver scalable and secure solutions
• Support system modernization and application enhancement efforts
• Participate in code reviews, testing, debugging, and troubleshooting activities
• Implement and maintain automated testing and CI/CD workflows
• Support secure development practices within classified environments

What You Bring

• 6 + years of progressive software engineering experience
• Active TS/SCI clearance (CI Polygraph preferred)
• Experience developing applications using Node.js and TypeScript
• Experience with SQL and PostgreSQL database development
• Experience with Redis and Elasticsearch
• Experience designing and consuming REST APIs and microservices
• Experience building frontend applications using Angular, React, Vue.js, or similar frameworks
• Experience working within collaborative, cross-functional Agile teams
• Experience with JSON, Java, JavaScript, SharePoint, XML, VBAs, Oracle, MongoDB, Solr, SQL, Open AI, or other AI technologies
• Experience using automated testing tools to support testing and maintenance activities
• Strong leadership, communication, and mentoring skills
