About the Role

We are seeking a Senior Full-Stack Product Engineer to join a high-priority, newly funded product engineering team developing an agentic AI platform that processes large-scale datasets for real-time intelligence delivery.

In this hybrid product engineering and forward-deployed engineering (FDE) role, you will bridge the gap between software development and real-world deployment. You will work directly with end-user operators in sensitive environments, translate high-stakes operational requirements into production-ready software, and build full-stack features end-to-end.

Key Responsibilities

• Full-Stack Development: Design, build, and deploy core product capabilities across a modern tech stack (React, Python, PostgreSQL, Redis, and S3).
• Forward-Deployed Problem Solving: Partner directly with defense and intelligence operators on-site to identify unmet operational needs and rapidly turn them into robust product features.
• Enterprise System Integration: Deploy, integrate, and harden applications within sensitive government IT environments, including enterprise data platforms, Identity and Access Management (IdAM), SIEM tools, and cross-domain solutions.
• End-to-End Feature Ownership: Own development lifecycles from architecture and prototyping through field testing, user acceptance, and continuous operational support.
• Field Deployments: Travel up to 40–50% to operational test beds and customer installations across primary defense hubs.

Mandatory Qualifications

• Active Security Clearance: Current, active US Security Clearance (TS/SCI strongly preferred; candidates holding an active Secret clearance may be considered). Clearances in process cannot be accepted.
• US Personhood: Must qualify as a US Person under federal export regulations without sponsorship.
• Experience: 4 to 10 years of professional software engineering experience as a full-stack or product-focused individual contributor.
• Government / Defense Exposure: Demonstrated track record building, testing, or deploying software tailored to US government, defense, or national security missions.
• Modern Full-Stack Capabilities: Hands-on proficiency with modern web frontends (React) paired with relational and key-value datastores (PostgreSQL, Redis) and object storage (S3).
• Integration Expertise: Practical experience integrating software with government enterprise infrastructure (IdAM, SIEM, data platforms, or secure enclaves).
• Communication & Stakeholder Presence: Exceptional interpersonal and technical communication skills with direct experience collaborating with non-technical stakeholders and military/civilian operators.
• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical discipline (or equivalent practical technical foundation).
• Mobility: Willingness and ability to travel 40% to 50% domestically.

Preferred Qualifications

• Practical experience with DoD Risk Management Framework (RMF) or deploying to AWS GovCloud / secure cloud enclaves.
• Balanced full-stack proficiency with particular strength in frontend architecture and user workflow design.
• Hands-on exposure to agentic AI workflows, LLM application development, or large-scale data retrieval pipelines.

Incentive Equity: Meaningful equity grant in a well-capitalized, profitable enterprise.

Benefits: Full health, dental, and vision coverage, 401(k) retirement plans, flexible PTO, and comprehensive travel coverage.
