We're working with a global leader in defense technology and emergency response innovation on this exciting opportunity. You will help build the mission-critical C2IMERA platform for the US Air Force, working in a fast-paced environment where the software you write directly impacts national security and incident management.

This is a high-growth role for a software engineer ready to jump into the cockpit of complex C2 systems using Java, JavaScript, and React. If you want to move past the basics and start outthinking the status quo with a team that is already ten steps ahead, this is your chance.

The Role

• Design and debug mission-critical software source code using Java and C++ within an Agile framework.

• Build and maintain modern web interfaces using JavaScript and React to support Air Force emergency response efforts.

• Participate in the full SDLC, utilizing Jira, Confluence, and Bitbucket/Git for seamless team collaboration.

• Develop automated tests and maintainable code within a Continuous Integration (CI) pipeline.

• Own the delivery of application components while working alongside senior engineers to master technical design and system architecture.

What You'll Need

• 0-2 years of experience with a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a related field (or equivalent experience).

• An active US Secret security clearance or higher is mandatory for this mission.

• Hands-on proficiency in Java or C++ with a strong grasp of Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) principles.

• Experience working with JavaScript frameworks (React preferred) and basic web technologies like HTML, CSS, and REST/JSON.

• Familiarity with version control (Git) and a self-motivated drive to learn NoSQL databases (MongoDB) and server-side JavaScript.

What's On Offer

• Competitive salary range up to $104k with a comprehensive benefits package including health, wellness, and retirement plans.
