YOU SHOULD APPLY IF YOU:

• Have experience building backend software or developer tooling that real users depend on, and want to grow that experience on a DevInfra team supporting a high-stakes defense program.
• Want to own meaningful pieces of shipped work - backend services, pipelines, tooling, and infrastructure - alongside senior engineers who will give you feedback and context.
• Love building platform and infrastructure tooling that enables other software engineers to scale their output.
• Enjoy working end-to-end on a problem: writing the Go/Python service, standing up the AWS infrastructure via Terraform, wiring it into CI, and debugging it when it misbehaves in production.
• Are curious about the layers you haven't touched yet and ready to learn them on the job.
• Are a U.S. Person because of required access to U.S. export controlled information, and are eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Top Secret security clearance.

NICE TO HAVE

• At least 3+ years working with a variety of programming languages such as Rust, Go, C++, Java, Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, etc.
• Professional software development lifecycle experience using tools such as version control, CI/CD systems, etc.
• Experience building backend software systems with various data storage and processing requirements.
• Experience with industry-standard cloud platforms (AWS, Azure), CI/CD tools, and software infrastructure fundamentals (networking, security, distributed systems).
• Experience with modern build and deployment tooling (e.g. NixOS, Terraform).
• Ability to quickly understand and navigate complex systems and established code bases.
• Familiarity with industry-standard monitoring and logging tools.
• A bias toward rapid delivery and iteration.
• You've built or invented something: an app, a website, a game, a startup.
• Previous experience working in an engineering setting: a startup (or startup-like environment), engineering school, etc. If you've succeeded in a low-structure, high-autonomy environment you'll succeed here.
• Exposure to containers, SBOM tooling, or vulnerability scanning (Syft, Grype, Trivy).
• Prior work on a platform, devinfra, SRE, or developer-productivity team.
