DevOps/Software EngineerAn active TS//SCI clearance with polygraph is required for this role About this Role You'll join a Mission Intelligence team maintaining and advancing a business intelligence platform that drives data-driven decisions across the enterprise. This is a mission-essential system, and keeping it running reliably is your first priority - but that's far from all you'll be doing.
As a DevOps/Software Engineer on this team, you'll wear multiple hats: site reliability engineer, software developer, and analytic builder. You'll work to incrementally mature the platform using SRE principles, contribute production-grade code in Java and Python, and develop analytics that combine, normalize, and enrich large data sets to surface meaningful, mission-centric insights. You'll also design and implement ETL workflows, integrate new tools and technologies into the platform, and bring your technical judgment to bear when engaging with stakeholders to understand what they need and deliver solutions that matter.
This role has a mentorship dimension, too - you'll help guide more junior engineers and data scientists as the team continues to grow. Strong written communication is a must, as you'll be expected to contribute to both internal documentation and customer-facing materials.
This position is located in Ft. Meade, Maryland.
