About the Role

This role leads an engineering team of up to 8 engineers on a new effort growing out of an established program. You will own the technical direction end-to-end, including architecture, delivery, customer engagement, and the people doing the work. This is a hands-on lead role with the expectation to also be in the codebase.

Responsibilities

• Lead architecture and delivery for an edge software product line from prototype through fielded capability.
• Build and maintain Go services that operate in disconnected and intermittently connected environments.
• Design Kubernetes-native systems, including workload architecture, Helm chart authoring, custom controllers or operators where warranted, and clean separation between platform and application concerns.
• Own the Kubernetes runtime story, including K3S on edge hardware, image distribution into air-gapped enclaves, GPU scheduling, and read-only root filesystems.
• Establish and maintain CI/CD pipelines such as GitLab CI or GitHub Actions, that produce signed, scanned, and reproducible artifacts.
• Integrate with tactical data standards such as Cursor on Target or TAK, and ISR sensor pipelines.
• Mentor engineers, set technical standards, and run code review with a high bar.
• Interface directly with the customer to translate operator needs into technical requirements and back again.
• Support proposal and capture work for follow-on scope.

Requirements

• 6+ years of experience with software engineering in a professional environment
• 2+ years of experience in a technical lead or engineering lead role
• Experience using Go as a primary systems language for production
• Experience deploying and operating Kubernetes in production
• Experience with disconnected or air-gapped software delivery, including image syncing, registry mirroring, offline package management, and updating strategies for systems that cannot phone home
• Experience with Linux at the systems-level, including systems, networking, filesystems such as overlays or tempfs, and containers under the hood
• Ability to mentor engineers and raise the technical bar of a team
• Secret clearance
