📋 Description

• Own the software design, architecture, delivery & deployment for the program • Be accountable for delivery; keep the effort honest about scope, schedule, and risk, and raise issues early. • Favor proven, open-source and off-the-shelf tools, and reuse what already exists, over building from scratch. • Sit with the customer and end users, gather requirements, and turn what they need into a design and a plan, including the user experience and UX direction. • Represent DEFCON's engineering to the customer and work the "how does our software get onto your network" conversation to a resolution. • Communicate clearly across many audiences: run stakeholder workshops and translate between the customer, the PM, subject-matter experts, and the optimization and data-science staff. • Drive the technical vision and keep the program aligned to it. • Coordinate across the PM, subject-matter experts, and the software team, sequence the work, define what "done" looks like, and unblock the team. • Lead a small software team as the effort grows. • Own the release cadence from capability intake through demonstration and deployment, aligned to government timelines. • Own the unclassified-to-secure delivery path: design so software built in the open runs unchanged once it moves into the government's secure environment. • Own the data and schema contract that lets the app ingest securely-prepared data it has never seen before, and keep unclassified fixtures and secure-side data in strict parity. • Drive the transfer process end to end: offline, self-contained packaging, the low-to-high move, and a secure-side smoke test, working it early so it stays off the critical path. • Keep sensible CI/CD hygiene (testing, security scanning) as a normal engineering practice, and coordinate with the security team on whatever accreditation the program ultimately requires.

🎯 Requirements

• 8+ years building and shipping production software, including at least one system owned end to end as the senior technical voice accountable for it, not just a component. • Front-end and data visualization engineering (e.g. React/TypeScript or equivalent): the deliverable is a data-visualization product, so you can architect and personally build its core surfaces. • A working lead, not just a director: this is a small team without other software depth early, so you write and review code directly while leading the developers on the effort. • Unclassified-to-secure delivery: building software in the open so it runs unchanged in a government secure or air-gapped environment, owning the data and schema contract, and driving the transfer. Sensible CI/CD hygiene expected; deep RMF and ATO ownership is a plus, not a requirement. • Requirements and architecture instincts: you can sit with a customer who does not speak software, pull out what they need, and turn it into a design and a plan. • Partnering with an optimization scientist: conversant enough in the analytic core (optimization, dependency management, critical-path analysis) to define the contracts between engine and UI and pressure-test feasibility, without owning the models yourself. • Leading small teams and coordinating across roles (PM, SMEs, data scientists, operations research and analytics, security), customer-facing in a government setting. • US Citizenship Required • Active Secret Clearance • Willingness to Travel up to 25% to customer site, Defcon AI HQ, and vendor facilities as required.

🏖️ Benefits

• A fully remote, results-based environment • Competitive salary, bonus, and equity package • 100% employer paid, comprehensive health insurance including medical, dental, and vision for you and your family • Unlimited PTO, with your manager’s approval • Flexible work environment where you manage your work day • 14 weeks of fully-paid parental leave
