Your Mission

You will play a key role in developing and implementing our AI-enabled product while collaborating closely with stakeholders to translate complex requirements into intuitive, high-impact solutions. 

You Will Excel in This Role If You Are:

• Experienced leading small engineering teams while remaining a primary implementor, spending the large majority of your time hands-on
• Skilled in full-stack development — language secondary, though you'll ship quickly in TypeScript, Python, and React
• Fluent with AI-native IDEs and comfortable using them as your default way of working
• Strong in version control habits
• Comfortable working in hybrid (on-prem/cloud) and air-gapped deployment environments
• Practical experience with containers
• Familiar with production cross-cutting concerns: identity/SSO, RBAC, audit logging, encryption, and observability
• Experienced guiding engineers through code review, conventions, and pairing
• Capable of gathering requirements and communicating status to stakeholders

A Day in the Life:

• Lead development of a customer-specific implementation within the platform's architecture baseline
• Remain a primary implementor while directing a small team (2–6 engineers)
• Make account-specific technical trade-off decisions, coordinating with technical leadership on platform-level questions
• Gather requirements, prioritize delivery work, and communicate status to customer-facing stakeholders and internal leadership
• Guide engineers through review, conventions, and pairing
• Own releases end-to-end, including delivery into hybrid and air-gapped environments

What We Are Expecting From You:

• Active TS/SCI with Polygraph clearance; U.S. citizenship
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mathematics, or similar (4 years of experience may substitute)
• 10+ years of experience in the design, development, and deployment of software systems
• Fluency with AI-native IDEs
• Strong version control habits
• Understanding of hybrid deployment (on-prem and cloud), including air-gapped deployment
• Practical experience with containers
• Skilled in at least two mainstream programming languages — language is secondary; expect to ship quickly in TypeScript, Python, and React, using tech like Postgres, RAG, and vector stores
• Familiarity with production cross-cutting concerns: identity/SSO/OAuth/OIDC, MFA, RBAC, session management, audit logging, encryption, object + relational storage, APIs, CI/CD, and observability
• Experienced across all phases of the software development lifecycle
• Experience gathering requirements, prioritizing delivery work, and communicating status to stakeholders
• Spends roughly 90% of time on hands-on implementation while guiding 2–6 engineers via review, conventions, and pairing; owns releases end-to-end
• Experience providing technical direction and leadership to less experienced staff

Nice to Have:

• Tech-lead experience on multi-service products
• Generative AI / agentic feature delivery experience
• Experience supporting RMF/ATO (security control evidence, finding remediation, accreditation documentation)
• Experience with physical security or facility accreditation practices, such as ICD 705 or similar frameworks
• Familiarity with tools used by security and compliance teams
