Job summary

DefenseStorm is seeking a Junior Product Engineer to help shape GRID platform features through specification-driven, agentic development. You will translate customer problems into precise specs, guide AI agents, and review outcomes to ensure customer value.

This is a remote-friendly, Atlanta-based role blending product, design, and engineering collaboration. You will define requirements, break work into increments for agents, and validate results with tests and demos.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's or master's degree in computer science or related field.
• 0-4 years of experience building and maintaining production software systems.
• An AI-native mindset and genuine interest in building software through agentic workflows.
• Strong ability to turn ambiguous problems into precise specifications and measurable acceptance criteria.
• Proficiency with software engineering so you can evaluate agent-produced architecture, data flow, tests, edge cases, and security.
• Comfort iterating quickly, learning from failures, and improving instructions based on results.
• A high standard for reviewing and validating work rather than accepting generated output at face value.
• Clear communication, sound judgment, ownership, and a collaborative mindset.

Responsibilities

• Collaborate with product, design, engineering, and customer-facing teams to shape the right outcomes.
• Define clear problem statements, requirements, acceptance criteria, and implementation constraints.
• Break initiatives into small, independently deliverable increments for agent execution.
• Direct AI agents through iterative development workflows.
• Review generated implementations for correctness, maintainability, security, and alignment with the specification.
• Validate results through tests, demonstrations, and customer-focused evaluation.
• Diagnose failures to improve context, specifications, and the agent harness.
• Other duties as assigned by management
