Job description

Description

This is an exciting opportunity to join a rapidly growing company that provides Artificial Intelligence systems and software engineering services/solutions to DoD and Federal clients. We seek a Full‑Stack Engineer with a dual focus on data engineering and tactical data link (TDL) systems. The successful candidate will design, develop, and maintain secure end‑to‑end data pipelines that ingest, process, and deliver mission‑critical information to U.S. and allied forces, including AI‑based decision support software. This role blends traditional full‑stack responsibilities with the specialized knowledge of tactical data links such as Link‑16, Link‑22, and DTN‑Evolved. Our work includes developing advanced AI algorithms, microservice‑based architectures, and command‑and‑control (C2) messaging systems to support warfighting requirements. This role will collaborate with cross‑functional teams to deliver modular, scalable, and high‑performance software solutions.

The ideal candidate will have a strong background in software engineering, with expertise in modern programming languages and microservice architectures. You will work alongside experienced engineers, military operations experts, and senior leadership to support the development of innovative defense technologies. You'll contribute to a mission‑critical effort that includes real‑time operator displays, advanced algorithms, and interoperable defense software.

Key Responsibilities

• Software Design & Development:
  • Design and implement microservice‑based software architectures to support scalable, modular systems.
  • Design and maintain ETL/ELT pipelines (Airflow, dbt).
  • Store and query large volumes of mission data in cloud (AWS Redshift, Snowflake, or Azure Synapse). Ensure data quality, lineage, and audit‑ability.
  • Translate TDL packets into ingestible formats (JSON, protobuf).
• Collaboration & Integration:
  • Collaborate across teams, including systems engineers, AI/ML specialists, and program managers, to ensure modular, scalable system design.
  • Work with cross‑functional teams to integrate software solutions into broader defense systems, ensuring compatibility and performance.
• Technical Excellence:
  • Write clean, efficient, and maintainable code adhering to best practices and DoD/DoW cybersecurity standards.
  • Participate in code reviews, testing, and debugging to ensure high‑quality deliverables.
  • Stay abreast of emerging technologies and industry trends to continuously improve software solutions.
• Agile Development:
  • Contribute to Agile development processes, including sprint planning, stand‑ups, and retrospectives.
  • Support the adoption of SAFe or other Agile methodologies to ensure efficient project execution.

Qualifications

• High‑energy individual thriving in a fast‑paced, collaborative environment with significant growth opportunities.
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field from an accredited university.
• Proficiency in a compiled language like Golang and at least 5 years of Python experience for software development and integration.
• Experience with microservice/container‑based architectures (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes).
• SAFe or other Agile certifications are a plus.
• Strong problem‑solving skills and ability to work effectively in a team‑oriented environment.
