About the RoleWe are seeking a hands-on Full-Stack Software Engineer to join our rapidly growing engineering team focused on building foundational Generative AI capabilities for cybersecurity solutions. In this role, you'll design, build, and deploy enterprise-grade applications and end-to-end GenAI integrations, working across both UI and backend systems. This is a highly technical, fast-paced environment where you will contribute directly to engineering deliverables and collaborate closely with cross-functional partners.
Candidates must be self-driven, comfortable iterating quickly, and capable of working independently in a hybrid onsite model.
Key Responsibilities- Design, build, and maintain full-stack applications, including APIs, services, and user interfaces.
- Develop single-page applications using modern frameworks and robust backend services in Python and Java.
- Architect and implement generative AI solutions using frameworks such as LangChain, LangGraph, OpenAI Agent frameworks, and ADK.
- Deploy and manage applications in cloud environments (Google Cloud Platform preferred; other clouds accepted).
- Analyze complex engineering challenges and contribute to scalable, secure, high-performance solution designs.
- Collaborate with engineering partners and cybersecurity stakeholders to deliver high-impact features.
- Contribute to iterative development cycles; quickly adapt to evolving requirements.
- Operate as an individual contributor with a strong hands-on coding focus (80%+).
Minimum Qualifications- 7-10 years of professional full-stack engineering experience (mid-senior, hands-on).
- 5+ years building enterprise-grade applications with strong attention to scalability, performance, and security.
- 5+ years developing single-page applications using:
- Python, Java
- JavaScript / TypeScript
- React.js, Next.js, Tailwind, Bootstrap, or similar frameworks
- 2+ years of hands-on generative AI development using tools such as:
- LangChain, LangGraph
- OpenAI Agent Frameworks
- ADK or similar toolkits
- 2+ years deploying AI or application workloads on public cloud environments (Google Cloud Platform preferred; AWS/Azure acceptable).
- Strong problem-solving ability with demonstrated experience learning emerging technologies quickly.
- Ability to work onsite 3 days/week in one of the approved locations.
Nice to Have- Cloud integration expertise
- Experience with OpenShift

- Military background (acceptable but not required)
Additional Notes- The team is recently established and rapidly scaling.
- Candidates must be proactive, self-motivated, and comfortable in a dynamic environment.
- Past challenges included applicants being too senior/architectural; this role requires deep hands-on engineering.
- Relocation may be considered but candidates must reliably meet hybrid attendance requirements.
