Technical Skills
• Minimum 10 years of professional experience in software engineering and/or data engineering
• Practical experience with at least one high‑level programming language used in DoD environments (e.g., Python, Java, C#) with code samples or demonstrable work
• Strong data engineering and analytics experience (SQL, ETL, data pipelines)
• Experience with relational databases and querying large datasets
• Experience with data visualization tools (e.g., Power BI, Tableau, Python visualization libraries)
• Experience in CI/CD workflows (build/test/deploy automation)
• Familiarity with basic software engineering best practices (version control, unit testing)
Operational & DoD Context
• Experience working in DoD or cleared contractor environments
• Ability to communicate technical approaches and status to senior stakeholders
DESIRED QUALIFICATIONS (nice‑to‑have)
• Experience with classification guidance or classification compliance workflows (including Security Classification Guides)
• Experience with UNIX/Linux environments
• Experience in cloud platforms commonly used in DoD (e.g., AWS GovCloud, Azure Government)
• Experience with modern data tooling (Python libraries, Airflow, dbt, Spark)
• Background in cross‑functional technical problem solving with hybrid software + analytics focus
• Master’s degree in Computer Science, Data Science, Engineering, or related field
