** An active TS//SCI clearance with polygraph is required for this role **

Hey!

Bitwise is a leading provider of mission-focused intelligence solutions that advance national security for the Intelligence Community and Department of Defense. We're a small and growing company, so you can expect to hop in on the ground floor with us and be a consequential member of the team. You'll be more than a contract performer for us - you'll also be asked for ideas to improve our company and improve your career, and you'll contribute to our team culture. We value growth and community above almost all else, so we gather regularly for game nights, happy hours, tech talks, and plenty more. We think you'll like it here!

Remember, Bitwise is not a cult.

Bitwise hires talented engineers who are driven by purpose and who value a culture of technical excellence, growth, and overall wellness. We deliver new and innovative intelligence solutions to our customers at the very forefront of our country's national security missions. And we do it every single day. Our work matters, and so will you.

We ask that every new hire be able to:

• Contribute meaningful thought leadership - if not right away, over time
• Interact with our customers and earn their confidence in your abilities
• Be detailed, even if that means taking a little more time to get it right
• Contribute their ideas and ideals to improve all aspects of our company
• Allow us to invest in their education so we both grow together
• Know and live our core values every single day

We're looking for a skilled reverse engineer and CNO software engineer to work on high-impact, mission-centric projects at Ft. Meade, Maryland. In this role, you'll design, develop, prototype, modify, and integrate software solutions that directly support intelligence operations - both in quick-reaction scenarios and across longer development lifecycles.

You'll work closely with analysts, operators, data scientists, and fellow software engineers to deliver tactical mission support. That means rolling up your sleeves on everything from augmenting existing toolsets to building full end-to-end capabilities that operate within real-world mission constraints. You'll coordinate with cross-functional teams to derive and scope requirements, build prototypes that demonstrate your understanding of mission needs, provide technical consulting across a range of software products and technologies, and take part in peer code reviews to keep quality high and defects low.

This is a role for someone who thrives at the intersection of deep technical skill and mission purpose - someone who wants their code to matter.

• 12 years of experience with a B.S., or 10 years with an M.S. (4 years of additional software engineering experience may be substituted for a bachelor's degree)
• Reverse engineering experience
• Proficiency in C, C++, and/or Python - you should be able to produce and modify software systems in these languages
• Experience providing support for fielded software systems
• Ability to coordinate with cross-functional teams - including analysts, operators, and external development shops - to deliver holistic software solutions
• Familiarity with Git and Subversion
• Experience with Atlassian tools including Jira, Confluence, and Bamboo
• Active TS//SCI clearance with polygraph

• Experience with any of the following languages: Java, JavaScript, Bash, PowerShell, Perl, C#, or Rust
• Experience developing CNO-specific software for Linux, Windows, or embedded environments
• Experience with vulnerability research and exploit development
• Knowledge of end-to-end SIGINT collection and analysis systems
• Experience with production CNO capabilities and operations

• Top salaries because we're top performers
• Pick your PTO - Everyone values time and money differently, so we give you the flexibility to choose between 3 and 5 weeks of PTO with a corresponding adjustment to your pay. Your choice, your balance.
• All 11 federal holidays, paid!
• Up to 2 snow days, paid!
• We'll quadruple (4x!) the first 6% you contribute to your 401(k), giving you up to a 24% company match. Contributing less than 6%? Unclaimed matches come right back to you as extra income, giving you a guaranteed 24% that goes to your retirement, to your paycheck, or both. C'mon now!
• 100% employer-paid medical, dental, vision, life, and disability insurances. That's a lot. Already covered on health insurance? No problem - we'll trade you this benefit for a boost to your salary instead.
• $5,250 annual education assistance for training, certifications, tuition, and even student loan repayments.
• Spot bonuses for obtained certifications, customer recognition, and just about anything else that makes us go "Hot damn!". We hope to say that many times about you.

$287,500 - $338,000

This range includes our flex income and depends upon your annual work hours.

Salary is determined on an individual basis following the interview process and considering various factors such as years of experience, skills, education, and certifications.

You'll get an email from us right away to acknowledge your application. After that, we'll:

• Send over additional company materials for you to review
• Schedule a video call to talk about you, our company, and your place in it
• Craft a delightful offer package for you and record a video walkthrough
• Work closely with you through onboarding. We'll keep it joyful and easy.
