Successful engineers at Metron are comfortable asking the right questions, working directly with researchers, engineers, users, and customers, and iterating toward practical solutions.

This role is primarily focused on implementing core application logic, with occasional user interface development.

• Build reliable, maintainable applications, services, APIs, and supporting software infrastructure.
• Contribute to intuitive GUI/frontend applications and visualizations that make complex technical information understandable and useful.
• Collaborate directly with research scientists, engineers, project managers, operators, and customers to understand technical and operational needs.

• At least 3 years of professional software development experience building applications or production software systems
• Strong foundation in object-oriented design and software development, with experience in Java, C++, or C#
• Experience developing applications, services, or APIs, along with experience contributing to GUI/frontend application development
• Strong engineering fundamentals, sound technical judgment, and the ability to collaborate effectively with researchers, engineers, and end users
• U.S. CITIZENSHIP REQUIRED; successful candidates will be subject to a security investigation and must meet eligibility requirements for access to classified information

• Active SECRET security clearance
• Experience writing high-performance, multi-threaded (parallel/concurrent) software
• Experience developing high-quality software in an environment where readability, maintainability, testing, and disciplined engineering practices are valued
• Experience in defense, national security, or other mission-driven environments
• Experience with TypeScript and React or other modern frontend development frameworks
• Experience using Python, particularly for scientific computing, data processing, modeling and simulation, or transitioning research software into operational applications.
• Experience with data-intensive or distributed systems, including databases, messaging systems, and asynchronous processing
• Experience with cloud and containerized deployment environments such as AWS, Docker, Kubernetes, and CI/CD pipelines
