Job description

Leidos has immediate openings for a software engineer to help us shape, develop, and deliver new software solutions leveraging state-of-the art technologies to our customers and launch new products and capabilities.
As part of an Agile Team, you'll design, develop, and deliver software applications and products following agile processes tailored to maximize the speed of delivery of those solutions to government customers and into the commercial marketplace. You'll learn, master, and improve the Continuous Integration Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) processes and tools we use to develop, test, integrate, and deploy our Cloud-based solutions into multiple hosting environments, such as AWS, Azure, and others. You'll learn new technologies and tools and apply what you've learned to overcome technological challenges with innovative solutions. You'll collaborate other software engineers and share your knowledge with the team and the organization to make us all better at what we do. You'll perform technical spikes and develop prototypes to help test product concepts and achieve customer validation. You'll contribute to the team's objectives by participating in Kanban or sprint planning, daily scrums, product reviews, and retrospectives. You'll learn our agile tooling, contribute to backlog planning and estimates, decompose backlog into technical tasks, and keep your tickets updated daily. You'll always respect the opinions of others, accept constructive criticism, share your views with a passion for improving the entire team's performance, and collaborate openly and positively with your teammates.
Primary Responsibilities:
  • Design, develop, troubleshoot, and debug software source code using modern software development languages and tools, such as Java, Go, Python, C#, C++, React.

  • Identify potential roadblocks and develop around them.
  • Plan and estimate development tasks and work to improve performance metrics.
  • Develop maintainable code that implements user stories.
  • Develop automated unit and integration tests leveraging a continuous integration process.
  • Own delivery of small parts of a system or application
  • Work closely with other engineers to develop the best technical design and approach for new product development.
  • Build software solutions where the solution is not always well defined but always considers the customer first.

Basic Qualifications:
  • BS degree and 2 - 4 years of prior relevant experience or Masters with less than 2 years of prior relevant experience.
  • Experience with Object Oriented Programing practices and patterns (Java, Python, or Go preferred, applicants will be tested).
  • Experience with JavaScript and JS frameworks such as React.
  • Solid understanding of software development process fundamentals.
  • Strong, self-motivated desire to learn new programming languages, tools, frameworks, and techniques.
  • Ability to complete tasking independently with minimal direct supervision.
  • Ability to work and collaborate effectively within a multi-disciplined engineering team.
  • Experience with LEAF (Leidos Enterprise Application Framework)

Preferred Qualifications:
  • Familiarity with basic web technologies (HTML, CSS, XML, REST, JSON)
  • Familiarity with Virtualization Technologies (VMWare, VirtualBox)
  • Familiarity with Cloud Technologies (AWS, Azure, GCP)
  • Knowledge of a version control system (e.g., Git).
