Full Job Description
Edge Processing Solutions Engineer **The Opportunity:** We build Go-based software systems that run at the tactical edge that are disconnected, resource-constrained, and often airborne or forward-deployed. Our portfolio spans ISR data pipelines, autonomous platform integration, and the underlying Kubernetes runtime that makes any of it deployable in the real world. 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. **What You’ll Work On:** * 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. Join us. The world can’t wait. **You Have:** * 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 J
