Dayton, OH (On-Site/Office)
You'll serve as the single technical owner for a federal mission‑planning platform transitioning from sustainment to cloud‑ready microservices. Half of your time is hands‑on-diving into .NET and SQL code, tuning performance, and breaking down a monolith. The other half is spent as a liaison: reviewing a Systems‑Integrator's pull requests, translating risks for government stakeholders, and ensuring every release meets stringent cybersecurity controls.

Responsibilities
  • Lead design and code reviews for backend (.NET Core/C#) and frontend (TypeScript/JavaScript) components.
  • Refactor legacy schemas, optimize large‑scale SQL queries, and write data‑migration scripts.
  • Own CI/CD pipelines (GitLab, SonarQube), adding automated SAST/DAST gates to accelerate ATO cycles.
  • Map RMF/STIG/NIST 800‑53 controls to implementation; author POA&Ms and brief accreditation status.
  • Maintain living architecture in Cameo SysML, Confluence, and ICDs, ensuring full requirements traceability.
  • Influence 10‑15 external engineers without direct authority, driving coding standards and DevSecOps best practices.
  • Prepare executive‑level risk briefs and technical decision packages for senior leadership.


Minimum qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 8 + years developing production software with C#/.NET and advanced SQL (PostgreSQL or MS SQL).
  • 3 + years leading code reviews and driving quality gates in a CI/CD environment.
  • Active (or clearable) Secret security clearance and willingness to work on classified networks.
  • Hands‑on experience implementing RMF or STIG hardening on DoD or civilian‑agency systems.


Preferred qualifications
  • Master's degree in Computer Science, Systems Engineering, or related field.
  • Prior role as the technical bridge between a government customer and a third‑party integrator.
  • Expertise with Docker/Kubernetes and FedRAMP‑authorized cloud services.
  • Familiarity with Cameo SysML, S1000D, or DOORS‑Next for model‑based systems engineering.
  • Demonstrated success influencing cross‑functional teams without direct line authority.
