Job description

Software Engineer, Operational Data Flows

Make an Impact Where It Matters Most

At Intelliforce, we build software that helps mission data move securely, reliably, and at the speed operations demand. In this role, you will create, sustain, and troubleshoot complex operational data flows that support storage, transport, management, security, compliance, and knowledge store management. You will also work directly with mission customers to explore raw data, clean and enrich it, transform it into usable formats, and improve how operational data moves across the environment. This is a strong fit for an engineer who likes solving hard data problems and building capabilities that keep mission systems running smoothly.

What Makes This Opportunity Stand Out

This role gives you the chance to work where data engineering and mission operations meet. You will help shape the reliability, distribution, and performance of operational data flows while partnering directly with mission customers to turn raw data into mission-ready outputs. The work is practical, visible, and closely tied to how teams access and use critical information every day.

At Intelliforce, your work is visible and your contributions carry weight. Because we support prime programs, our teams stay close to meaningful mission work with real momentum. Because we are a small business, leadership is accessible, communication is direct, and strong engineering gets noticed. Add in long-term stability, strong benefits, and a people-first culture, and this becomes more than another software role. It is a chance to improve the flow, quality, and reliability of data that mission teams depend on.

Here’s What Your Day-to-Day Could Include

• Create, sustain, and troubleshoot complex operational data flows
• Support data storage, transport, management, security, compliance, and knowledge store management
• Use Apache NiFi to process and distribute data across operational environments
• Work with mission customers to explore raw data and transform it into required formats
• Clean, enrich, and convert data to improve downstream usability
• Improve existing operational data flow processing, distribution, and reliability
• Monitor system health and support observability across data flow environments
• Automate repeatable tasks and support infrastructure-as-code practices

Minimum Qualifications

• Clearance: Top Secret Clearance with Full Scope Polygraph, must be active. We do not have the ability to sponsor clearances
• Citizenship: Must be a U.S. Citizen. We cannot sponsor visas
• Master’s degree in computer science or related discipline from an accredited college or university, plus five years of experience as a Software Engineer in programs and contracts of similar scope, type, and complexity
• Or bachelor’s degree in computer science or related discipline from an accredited college or university, plus seven years of experience as a Software Engineer in programs and contracts of similar scope, type, and complexity
• Or nine years of experience as a Software Engineer in programs and contracts of similar scope, type, and complexity

Required Skills

• Experience using the Linux CLI and suite of tools
• Experience creating, managing, and troubleshooting complex operational data flows
• Experience using Apache NiFi canvas to process and distribute data
• Experience with monitoring and observability tools such as Grafana and Prometheus
• Experience with IaC principles and automation tools including Ansible
• Experience with the Atlassian Tool Suite, including JIRA and Confluence

Desired Skills

• General HPC technical knowledge regarding compute, network, memory, and storage components
• Experience with corporate data flow processes and tools
• Experience with corporate data security and compliance procedures and policies
• Experience writing scripts using Bash and Python

Compensation Range: $179,000.00 - $237,000.00
