High Side Operations Software Engineer
The Opportunity:
As a back-end developer, you know that a good site or system needs the right combination of clean code, APIs, analytics, and infrastructure to develop a user-focused solution. We're looking for an experienced back-end developer with the software engineering skills it takes to identify potential risks, contribute to solution development, and create efficient and effective systems for our clients.
As a back-end developer at Booz Allen, you'll use the latest architectural approaches and open-source frameworks and tools to deliver solutions. Using your software engineering experience, you'll work with the development team to create custom tools, systems, and sites with consistent performance and scalability.
In this position, our team's mission is to rapidly develop, test, and mature digital, data, and AI-enabled capabilities that improve situational awareness and accelerate coordinated decision-making across the Department. Within this effort, we enhance warfighter access to data by delivering software products and data-integration services that close critical Combined Joint All-Domain Command and Control (CJADC2) capability gaps. The team focuses on improving cross-domain data movement, strengthening mission applications within Maven Smart Systems, and establishing reliable data transport across systems and classification levels. Together, these efforts enable timely, secure, and mission-relevant data flow to support the warfighters. This position is located in Washington D.C.
