About the Role

As a TSPV security-cleared Senior Software Engineer, you'll be responsible for supporting, maintaining, and enhancing software capabilities to ensure application availability, quality, and security through rigorous testing and review.

With SINT level 5 capability, you will lead systems integration and build activities, implementing automation and continuous integration frameworks, evaluating tools and processes, and providing authoritative guidance to reduce risk and ensure robust integration. Your combined technical depth and leadership enable you to deliver secure, high-performing, and scalable solutions in complex, mission-critical environments.
