Job description

Software Engineer
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 advance 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.
What We Look For
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

About this Role
If you want to build systems that actually think - this one's for you. We're looking for a Software Engineer to join a team working at the cutting edge of agentic AI, developing a production-grade platform that powers intelligent, autonomous workflows in a real operational environment. You'll work hands-on with agentic primitives like skills, prompts, and subagents to create adaptive, context-aware capabilities - and you'll collaborate directly with cyber analysts to turn complex operational challenges into high-impact technical solutions.
This isn't a prototype-and-shelve situation. You'll be building, maintaining, and evolving a live platform that matters to the people using it. You'll integrate diverse data sources and external APIs, design real-time analytics pipelines, and help shape how agents operate and deliver results in demanding, complex environments. If you're excited about the intersection of AI, automation, and national security, we'd love to talk.
In this role, you will:
  • Develop agentic integrations with Python that leverage multiple AI models, APIs, and data sources in production
  • Build tools and agentic workflows within modern frameworks like PydanticAI, Langgraph, and DeepAgents
  • Work directly with key stakeholders and cyber analysts to understand operational workflows and identify high-impact automation opportunities
  • Design and implement real-time analytics pipelines in Python, leveraging Apache Kafka for stream processing and Elasticsearch for indexing and querying
  • Maintain and troubleshoot a production-grade agentic platform serving real users in an operational environment

Requirements
  • 3 years of software development experience with strong Python proficiency (or 7 years of experience in lieu of a B.S. in a technical discipline)
  • B.S. in a technical discipline, or 4 additional years of experience in place of the degree
  • Hands-on experience building and maintaining production applications servicing hundreds to thousands of users
  • Understanding of AI development concepts, including prompt engineering, context management, structured outputs, and tool/function calling
  • Experience developing resilient, scalable stream processing applications using modern messaging and event-streaming platforms
  • Experience leveraging AI coding assistants for code generation, refactoring, debugging, and automation

Preferred Skills
  • Experience with agentic workflows and multi-agent orchestration
  • Background in cybersecurity or familiarity with security operations workflows
  • Experience managing deployments in AWS Cloud with Kubernetes
  • GitLab CI/CD automation
  • Experience with retrieval systems such as RAG, vector databases, or semantic search
  • Experience analyzing cybersecurity-related datasets, including network traffic and OS events
  • Knowledge of end-to-end SIGINT collection and analysis systems
  • Experience with production CNO capabilities and operations

Benefits at Bitwise
  • 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.

Salary Range
$197,500 - $232,500
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.
What to Expect After Applying
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.
