  • Lead the development of an AI-enabled decision platform that automates air defense workflows.
  • Accelerate C2 decision cycles by enhancing cross-domain data fusion and providing real-time operational recommendations.
  • Implement DevSecOps practices including containerization, orchestration, CI/CD, automated testing in constrained environments.

What we're looking for

  • 6+ years of experience designing and delivering mission-critical software systems in secure environments.
  • 6+ years of architecting software solutions, including APIs and microservices, for restricted settings.
  • 6+ years of implementing DevSecOps practices with containerization, CI/CD, and automated testing.
