Software Engineer, Java Platform IntegrationMake an Impact Where It Matters Most
In this role, you will support Application Integration efforts by helping maintain, modernize, containerize, and deploy Java-based applications across evolving mission platforms.
You will work across software development and platform integration, updating Java code, building Docker containers, creating Helm charts, supporting Kubernetes deployments, and working with Terraform-based infrastructure. You will also serve as a technical resource for teammates who need help resolving development, integration, or deployment issues.
This is a strong fit for a software engineer who enjoys writing code but also wants to stay close to how that code is packaged, deployed, and operated.What Makes This Opportunity Stand Out
This role gives you ownership beyond the application code itself. You will see your work through from development and refactoring into containerization, deployment, integration, and operational support.
You will help modernize existing software for stronger interoperability, package applications for containerized environments, support Kubernetes deployments, and work with infrastructure automation that helps make releases more repeatable and reliable.
At Intelliforce, your work is visible and your technical judgment matters. Because we support prime programs, our engineers stay close to meaningful mission work and the teams relying on what they build. Because we are a small business, leadership is accessible, communication is direct, and strong engineering gets noticed. Add in long-term stability, strong benefits, and a people-first culture, and this is an opportunity to work across both software engineering and modern platform delivery.Here's What Your Day-to-Day Could Include
