Speed Camera Operator Jobs in Gaithersburg, MD (NOW HIRING)

Cyber Platforms Software Engineer, Senior

The Opportunity:

We build software for large, fast-changing cyber problems where speed, scale, and complexity demand better tools. As a Senior Software Engineer, you'll work across production systems used by operators, analysts, and cyber experts today, while also helping develop new capabilities from early technical concept to deployed product.

On our team, you'll move across the stack through back-end services, data systems, user-facing tools, automation, containers, and cloud infrastructure. You'll bring judgment to ambiguous problems, make practical technical tradeoffs, and work close to users to understand where software holds up or breaks down in real-world use.

What You'll Work On:

• Build software that helps operators make sense of fragmented, high-volume cyber data.
• Make complex cyber workflows more reliable, observable, and repeatable at enterprise scale.
• Take new cyber capabilities from early technical concept to prototype and deployed product.
• Apply AI, analytics, and decision-support techniques to reduce analyst burden and improve operator decision-making.
• Develop orchestration and human-in-the-loop systems that help cyber teams coordinate, prioritize, and act.

This role is for engineers who want to build software that is used now and help define the next generation of cyber capabilities.

Join us. The world can't wait.

You Have:

• 3+ years of experience building, shipping, and supporting production software through software engineering in a professional environment
• 2+ years of experience building back-end services, APIs, data workflows, or platform components with Python
• Experience working with Docker or Kubernetes, containers, and reproducible development or deployment workflows
• Experience building, deploying, or operating software on cloud platforms such as AWS
• Experience designing or operating production systems that use databases, APIs, queues, caches, background jobs, or distributed-system patterns
• Experience owning technical delivery for a feature, service, product area, or engineering workstream
• Ability to obtain a Secret clearance
• Bachelor's degree in CS, Computer Engineering, or Information Systems

Nice If You Have:

• 2+ years of experience building front-end applications with React, TypeScript, or modern front-end frameworks
• Experience building software for cyber operations, cyber defense, threat detection, security operations, or related environments
• Experience working with cyber ranges, digital twins, adversary simulation, vulnerability research, reverse engineering, or detection engineering
• Experience with operational data such as logs, telemetry, network data, endpoint data, or security events
• Experience building AI-enabled, agentic, or LLM-based applications that were deployed to users or integrated into production systems
