The Software Engineer develops, maintains, and enhances complex and diverse software systems (e.g., processing-intensive analytics, novel algorithm development, manipulation of extremely large data sets, real-time systems, and business management information systems) based upon documented requirements. Works individually or as part of a team. Reviews and tests software components for adherence to the design requirements and documents test results. Resolves software problem reports. Utilizes software development and software design methodologies appropriate to the development environment. Provides specific input to the software components of system design to include hardware/software trade-offs, software reuse, use of Commercial Off-the-shelf (COTS)/Government Off-the-shelf (GOTS) in place of new development, and requirements analysis and synthesis from system level to individual software components.
Nightwing is seeking an experienced UI Front End Software Engineer (SWE3) in support of Nightwing CODEX, directly meeting mission-critical needs in partnership with mission customers. This individual will lead a team of UI developers, designing front-end architecture and coding standards while remaining hands-on in development across the full software product lifecycle in an agile environment. Responsibilities span analyzing user requirements to derive design and performance standards, developing and debugging software, integrating systems, and implementing algorithms to meet performance goals. The ideal candidate has front end experience, translates UX/UI designs into accessible, production-ready interfaces, and mentors junior developers while collaborating closely with system engineers and product stakeholders to resolve technical problem areas.
Responsibilities
Lead and mentor a team of UI/front-end developers, providing technical guidance, standards, and code review
Architect and implement scalable, maintainable front-end solutions using modern frameworks
Translate prototypes and design specifications into functional, responsive, and accessible interfaces
Collaborate with backend engineers to design and integrate APIs, ensuring efficient data flow between front-end and back-end systems
Contribute to full-stack development efforts as needed, including backend services, database interactions, and deployment pipelines
Establish and enforce front-end coding standards, best practices, and component reuse across the team
Partner with UX/UI and systems engineers to ensure design intent is preserved through implementation
Identify and resolve performance bottlenecks, cross-browser issues, and technical debt
Participate in sprint planning, technical estimation, and architectural decision-making
Ensure compliance with accessibility standards (e.g., Section 508, WCAG) throughout development
