ABOUT THE TEAM
Air Dominance & Strike (AD&S) is responsible for autonomous robotics systems like the Fury unmanned fighter jet and the Barracuda family of advanced effects. The AD&S Mission Systems Deployment & Infrastructure team owns the path our software takes from a developer's commit to running on a vehicle in the field. That includes our CI/CD pipelines and build infrastructure, the software-in-the-loop (SITL) environments engineers rely on to test before deploying to hardware, and the on-vehicle Kubernetes infrastructure that manages software deployed on mission systems. A core part of this role is solving software delivery in environments that don't look like typical cloud deployment and getting builds securely into classified and disconnected government systems where standard internet-based delivery isn't an option. We are looking for engineers who want to own the full delivery chain, from build to test to field deployment, for systems where getting this wrong has real operational consequences.
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS
- BS, MS, or PhD in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, or related field.
- 3+ years of experience building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines and build infrastructure in a production environment
- Production-grade software development experience (C++, Rust, Python, Go, or equivalent) in a Linux environment
- Deep experience with Kubernetes and container orchestration, including deploying and managing services in constrained or non-standard network environments
- Comfort navigating complex, multi-stage delivery pipelines and diagnosing failures across build, test, and deployment stages
- Experience with Git & GitHub, including branching/release strategies for shipping software to production
- Travel up to 30% of time to build, test, and deploy capabilities in the real world
- Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance
- Track record of high ownership and bias for action
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
- Experience delivering software into classified, air-gapped, or otherwise disconnected environments
- Familiarity with building and maintaining software-in-the-loop (SITL) or hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) test infrastructure
- Experience running Kubernetes on constrained or embedded hardware (e.g., k3s or similar lightweight distributions)
- Experience with systemd and Linux system-level service management
- Experience deploying, debugging, and testing infrastructure on physical systems in both lab and test site environments
- Familiarity with artifact repositories, package management, and secure software supply chain practices (e.g., signed builds, provenance tracking)
- Familiarity with government reference architectures or accreditation processes relevant to fielding software on DoW systems
- Active Secret U.S. security clearance
