Roles & Responsibilities: MITRE is seeking a Software Engineer to design, build, test, and deploy mission-focused software capabilities for network diagram visualization, outage reporting automation, and cloud integration. This role supports development of data-driven tools that transform raw data into refined information that helps operational and engineering teams understand system status and make informed decisions. The selected candidate will help develop practical, secure, and maintainable capabilities using cloud-native software, relational and graph-oriented data models, web-based visualization approaches, and automated report generation. Responsibilities may include some or all of the following: * Design and implement data models, data pipelines, and analytic services to represent network assets, relationships, status, dependencies, and availability information.
* Evaluate and apply relational and graph data approaches, including PostgreSQL and graph database technologies such as Neo4j, to support network topology analysis and visualization needs.
* Develop Python-based services, APIs, data transformation utilities, and automation scripts that support visualization, reporting, testing, and deployment workflows.
* Create validation logic, regression tests, data quality checks, and repeatable test procedures to ensure visualization and reporting outputs remain accurate as source data, schemas, and deployment environments evolve.
* Package, deploy, and troubleshoot software components using Docker, Kubernetes, and related configuration, orchestration, and platform technologies.
* Deploy software to government cloud environments, including deployment planning, environment configuration, integration testing, and operational readiness activities.
* Apply information assurance and secure software engineering practices, including configuration control, vulnerability-aware development, access control considerations, and support for compliance-oriented review activities.
* Support integration events with sponsor, contractor, and mission partner teams by preparing technical artifacts, troubleshooting interfaces, capturing issues, and helping drive practical resolution of integration blockers. Basic Qualifications: * Typically requires a minimum of 5 years of related experience with a Bachelor's degree; or 3 years and a Master's degree; or a PhD with relevant experience who can immediately contribute at this job step.
* Demonstrated experience developing, testing, and deploying software in mission, operational, enterprise, cloud, or other complex technical environments.
* Strong software development experience in Python (or similar language) and familiarity with modern software engineering practices, including code review, automated testing, configuration management, and maintainable design.
* Experience designing, querying, and integrating relational databases, preferably PostgreSQL, including schema design, SQL, data validation, and data access patterns.
* Experience building web-based visualization, dashboard, reporting, or data exploration capabilities using modern web application patterns.
* Experience developing automation that converts structured data into human-readable reports, graphics, forms, tables, or PDF documents.
* Experience with Docker and Kubernetes, including containerized application deployment, configuration, troubleshooting, and environment promotion.
* Experience applying DevSecOps practices and building or maintaining continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipelines, including automated testing, security scanning, quality checks, and repeatable deployment workflows.
* Familiarity with secure software development, information assurance, deployment controls, and operational constraints in classified or compliance-sensitive environments.
* Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to explain technical tradeoffs, document assumptions, and produce clear engineering artifacts.
* Must be eligible to obtain and maintain a Secret U.S Government issued Security Clearance. Per the U.S. Government's eligibility requirements, you must be a U.S Citizen to be considered for a security clearance.
* This position requires a minimum of 3 days a week on-site. Preferred Qualifications: * Experience working in Commercial Cloud Services (C2S), or comparable restricted mission environments.
* Experience using graph database technologies, graph data models, or graph query languages to represent network topology, dependencies, asset relationships, or operational status.
* Experience with visualization libraries or tools such as D3.js, Cytoscape.js, Plotly, Dash, Grafana, or comparable technologies for interactive diagrams, dashboards, and operational views.
* Experience with network modeling, infrastructure monitoring data, configuration management data, asset inventories, service dependency mapping, or mission system status reporting.
* Experience with report generation and document automation tools or libraries such as ReportLab, WeasyPrint, LaTeX, HTML-to-PDF pipelines, templating engines, or comparable PDF/document generation approaches.
* Experience developing operational metrics, up-time and down-time calculations, incident summaries, outage graphics, and recurring status products for technical or mission stakeholders.
* Experience using AI-assisted or agentic software development tools, such as Codex, ChatGPT, Cursor, Windsurf, or comparable tools, to support implementation, testing, documentation, code review, refactoring, or engineering analysis while applying sound technical judgment and appropriate security controls.
* Experience with Kubernetes deployment patterns, Helm, GitOps, infrastructure as code, or automated deployment workflows in controlled environments.
* Experience supporting information assurance activities, Risk Management Framework (RMF) artifacts, vulnerability remediation, security scanning, and system hardening.
* Experience supporting formal test events, integration events, regression test planning, interface troubleshooting, or operational readiness reviews.
* Advanced degree in Software Engineering, Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Data Science, Systems Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mathematics, or a related technical discipline.
