Job Summary

A Washington, DC-based software solutions provider founded in 2017, specializes in delivering mission-critical and enterprise solutions to the federal government. Originating from the Department of Defense's software factory ecosystem, the company focuses on Command and Control, Cybersecurity, Space, Geospatial, and Modeling & Simulation. The company leverages commercial technology to enhance the capabilities of the DoD, IC, and their end-users, with innovation driven by its Innovation centers. The company has a presence in Boston, MA, Colorado Springs, CO, San Antonio, TX, and St. Louis, MO.

Why the company?
  • Environment of Autonomy
  • Innovative Commercial Approach
  • People over process

  • We are seeking a passionate Software Data Engineer to support the Army Software Factory (ASWF) in aligning with DoDM 8140.03 Cyber Workforce requirements and broader compliance mandates. The Army Software Factory (ASWF), a first-of-its-kind initiative under Army Futures Command, is revolutionizing the Army's approach to software development by training and employing self-sustaining technical talent from across the military and civilian workforce. Guided by the motto "By Soldiers, For Soldiers," ASWF equips service members to develop mission-critical software solutions independently-especially vital for future contested environments where traditional technical support may be unavailable. This initiative also serves as a strategic prototype to modernize legacy IT processes and build technical readiness across the force to ensure battlefield dominance in the digital age.

    Required Skills:
    • Active DoD Secret Clearance (Required)
    • 4+ years of experience in data science, data engineering, or similar roles.
    • Expertise in designing, building, and maintaining scalable ETL/ELT pipelines using tools and languages such as Python, SQL, Apache Spark, or Airflow.
    • Strong proficiency in working with relational and NoSQL databases, including experience with database design, optimization, and query performance tuning (e.g., PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, Cassandra).
    • Demonstrable experience with cloud data platforms and services (e.g., AWS Redshift, S3, Glue, Athena; Azure Data Lake, Data Factory, Synapse; Google BigQuery, Cloud Storage, Dataflow).
    • Solid understanding of data warehousing concepts (e.g., Kimball, Inmon methodologies) and experience with data modeling for analytical purposes.
    • Proficiency in at least one programming language commonly used in data engineering (e.g., Python, Java, Scala) for data manipulation, scripting, and automation.
    • CompTIA Security+ Certified or otherwise DoDM 8140.03 (formerly DoD 8570.01-M) compliant.

    Nice to Have:
    • Familiarity with SBIR technologies and transformative platform shifts
    • Experience working in Agile or DevSecOps environments
    • 2+ years of experience interfacing with Platform Engineers and data visibility team, manage AWS resources, and GitLab admin
