Job Description
Help redefine how the DoD makes multi-billion-dollar force-design decisions. In this role, you'll fuse physics-driven simulation, interactive computing, and verified AI code-generation to create next-generation wargaming platforms. If building ultra-low-latency APIs, taming high-volume geospatial data, and leading with clean, production-ready Python gets you fired up, lets talk.
What youll do
- Own the service layerdesign, build, and scale FastAPI micro-services and lightning-fast ZeroMQ messaging pipelines running in Kubernetes and bare-metal clusters.
- Wrangle data at speed & scaleshape and query multi-TB Postgres/PostGIS datasets, orchestrate Redis for sub-millisecond state, and keep everything rock-solid under bursty load.
- Glue the stack togetherexpose crisp, well-versioned REST & WebSocket endpoints for the frontend crew and simulation kernel.
- Ship continuouslyautomate CI/CD, observability, and security hardening to DoD standards; push to prod with confidence.

- Cloud-native chopsDocker, Kubernetes, and one major provider (AWS, GCP, Azure, or GovCloud).
- Active Secret clearance or eligibility to obtain one.
- C++ or Rust skills for bridging high-performance simulation modules.
- Hardened services for FedRAMP / STIG compliance.
- Observability mindsetPrometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry.
- TS/SCI clearance.
- Health care plan with 100% premium coverage, including medical, dental, and vision.
