About this role
This job posting is Full-Stack Software Engineer to design, build, and deliver secure, highly interactive applications for mission-focused users. The ideal candidate has strong experience with Python, Django REST Framework, React, TypeScript, modern state management, MySQL, Docker Compose, and Git-based development. You should be comfortable optimizing complex canvas-based interfaces, profiling React performance, designing efficient data models, and making safe, backward-compatible changes in mature codebases. You will own work from loosely defined requirements through deployment, using GitHub Actions and AWS services such as EC2, S3, and ECS, while maintaining robust end-to-end test coverage with tools such as Playwright, Selenium, or Cypress. This role requires thoughtful use and review of AI coding tools, including the ability to recognize generated-code failures, protect sensitive information, distinguish AI-assisted development from agentic workflows, and apply least-privilege controls to agent tools and permissions. You will also help meet security and compliance requirements by addressing STIG/SCAP findings, Fortify results, and DAST findings from tools such as OWASP ZAP. Success requires a strong product mindset, care for usability in information-dense operator workflows, and the confidence to lead customer meetings, gather requirements, demonstrate work, and clearly explain technical decisions. Experience with GIS technologies, WebSockets, SSO and identity systems is a plus.
