TL;DR · Senior Software Factory Engineer

As a Senior Software Factory Engineer, you will join the engineering team to modernize a mission-critical submarine combat system. You will lead the transformation of a large monolithic C++ codebase into secure, scalable Java-based microservices while strengthening software factory capabilities for reliable delivery. Your daily responsibilities include designing and maintaining automated build, test, integration, and deployment pipelines in multi-repository environments. You will manage and migrate existing Bamboo and Bitbucket infrastructures to GitLab, establishing robust Git workflows, versioning strategies, and artifact management. The role requires expertise in CI/CD pipelines, DevOps practices, and tools such as Bazel, CMake, Gradle, Maven, and Make. You will collaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate DevSecOps practices into the lifecycle of distributed applications while mentoring team members on modern software-factory tools and engineering standards for high-consequence mission systems.

What you'll do

  • Lead the modernization of a monolithic C++ codebase into Java-based microservices.
  • Design and maintain automated build, test, integration, and deployment pipelines for multi-repository environments.
  • Execute the migration of existing Bamboo and Bitbucket infrastructure to GitLab.
  • Establish standardized Git workflows including branching strategies, pull requests, and repository governance.
  • Develop build infrastructure using tools like Bazel, CMake, Gradle, Maven, or Make.
  • Implement scalable versioning, release management, and configuration-management strategies across multiple technology stacks.
  • Integrate DevSecOps practices and security scanning into the software delivery lifecycle.
  • Mentor team members on modern software factory tools and engineering best practices.

What we're looking for

  • U.S. citizenship is required.
  • Must be able to obtain a Department of Defense Secret security clearance.
  • Bachelor's degree in Software Engineering or a related STEM field plus 8 years of experience, or a Master's degree plus 6 years of experience.
  • Expertise in CI/CD pipeline design, implementation, automation, and troubleshooting using tools like Bamboo, Bitbucket, GitLab, or Jenkins.
  • Experience migrating build pipelines and repositories from platforms like Bitbucket and Bamboo to GitLab.
  • Proficiency with build systems such as Bazel, CMake, Gradle, Maven, or Make for multi-language environments.
  • Familiarity with Java-based microservices and experience with legacy C++ systems is a plus.
  • Knowledge of DevOps principles, artifact management, infrastructure automation, and secure software-delivery practices.
