Application Developer

Are you ready to solve some of the most complex technical challenges in national security?

As a Senior CNO Software Engineer and Reverse Engineer with an active TS/SCI with Poly, you will be at the forefront of the Computer Network Operations (CNO) mission.

This is not a passive maintenance role you will actively design, prototype, and deploy mission-critical capabilities that directly support tactical operations.

You will bridge the gap between cutting edge research and real-world application, working alongside elite analysts, operators, and data scientists to deliver high-impact, scalable solutions.

Whether you are building rapid-response prototypes or architecting long-term software systems, your work will have a direct, measurable impact on national security.

• Innovate & Prototype: Design, develop, and modify end-to-end toolsets and prototypes that operate seamlessly within highly constrained mission environments.
• Reverse Engineer & Analyze: Dive deep into complex systems to understand their inner workings, augmenting existing toolsets to keep our capabilities ahead of the curve.
• Collaborate Across Disciplines: Partner closely with cross-functional teams including operators, analysts, and external development shops to translate mission needs into robust software requirements.
• Consult & Guide: Serve as a trusted technical advisor, guiding customers on operational direction and the deployment of various software products.
• Uphold Excellence: Participate in collaborative peer code reviews to ensure the highest standards of software reliability and security.
• Experience:
• 12 or more years of software engineering experience with a Bachelor’s degree.
• Or 10 or more years of experience with a Master’s degree.
• Or 16 or more years of experience (substituting years of additional software engineering experience in place of a Bachelor's degree).
• Core Technical Expertise: Proven, hands-on experience in Reverse Engineering.
• Programming Proficiency: Strong development skills in C, C++, and Python.
• Collaboration & Integration: Demonstrated ability to coordinate with cross-functional teams (analysts, operators, developers) to deliver holistic software solutions.
• Lifecycle Support: Experience supporting and maintaining fielded software systems in active environments.
• Modern Tooling: Familiarity with version control systems (Git, Subversion) and the Atlassian suite (Jira, Confluence, Bamboo).
