What makes someone choose one company over another? Pay, Benefits, Training, Work Satisfaction, Culture? What if you can have it all! At G2 Ops we have extremely competitive pay and benefits and that is not even the best part. Our culture is what sets us apart from other companies. Here, you will not be another payroll number or a cog in the machine. We provide great value to our customers by working as a team and ensuring every member is set up for success. Our team approach allows for each member to not only provide value with their expertise but also gives them the opportunity to cross train in other areas they have interest in.
Let's talk salary. The salary range for this position based on what we are asking you to do in the role starts at $150,000 and goes up to $210,000, based on qualifications. We'd like to start somewhere in that ballpark and go from there. With company standard annual performance reviews in place, plus on the spot awards for recognition; your performance will be rewarded and recognized, we promise!
So you want to work from home? Let's be honest, remote work is not all it's cut out to be. How do you feel about Telework? Yes! Now there is a happy-medium. At G2 Ops, we offer a flexible schedule with a combination of both in-office and teleworking opportunities. Due to the classification level of the projects we support, we are not able to offer fully remote opportunities at this time. Hear us out. As a Defense Contractor, we are working on and viewing some VERY highly classified material, and therefore, we need to ensure where you access your work is secure. You will have your own new, shiny desk at one of our G2 Ops offices, plus the occasional opportunity to work on-site directly with our customers (this is a good thing!). We do allow teleworking, but only with prior IT Department and manager approval. Here's the thing, we have worked very hard to create an awesome culture where our employees get to come to a collaborative, exciting office environment and we want you to join the fun!
Still not convinced? Allow us to elaborate. For this opportunity, we are seeking a highly motived, team-oriented Principal Software Engineer to join our team in Arlington, VA or Ft. Meade, MD. If you are based out of Arlington, you will need visit our customers at Ft. Meade on occasion (about one to two times per week). As Principal Software Engineer, you will be part of a cross-functional team that is responsible for the full software development life cycle of next-generation DoD cloud native applications. Our ideal candidate will be familiar in both front-end and back-end coding and produce intuitive and functional web interfaces that are user accessible, cross-browser, and cross-platform compatible.
In this role, you will lead design, development, and maintain cloud-native applications and will learn to define application resources and use core primitives to build, monitor, and troubleshoot scalable applications & tools using Kubernetes. Another aspect of this position will be to mentor and lead our team of junior software engineers! This role is customer facing; you will also be asked to develop presentations to present at internal and customer design reviews.
To be successful in this role, interested candidates should have at least eight (8) years of overall software development experience, with a recent focus on cloud computing and working within DevSecOps on DoD cloud environments. We require a bachelor's degree from an accredited college or university (preferably in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Information Systems, or related field). Extensive experience with a high-level programming language such as Java and/or Python is preferable.
Do you have extensive experience setting up, deploying, and managing Kubernetes cluster(s)? Or perhaps you have experience building data pipelines using Kafka? Great! Apply. Do you have experience working with large databases? Awesome! Apply. Do you have experience architecting and building web applications from the ground-up? Check! Apply. Do you have knowledge of AWS (EC2, Lambda, S3, etc.)? Even better! Apply. Any experience with Podman/Docker? Wow! Apply. Lastly, any experience utilizing tools associated with CI/CD environments, including Jira, Confluence, Jenkins, Bitbucket, Git, GitHub, Gitlab, etc? You better apply!
Bonus Material. You are an overachiever if you have any of the following experience: OpenShift, Kubernetes framework, DevOps experience or knowledge of best DevOps practices, specifically regarding deploying containerized applications into Kubernetes development environments, performing container security hardening (Twistlock, etc.), experience with classified DoD cloud environments (C2S, CloudOne, etc.), experience with DoD cybersecurity requirements relating to cloud-enabled software development, understanding of multiple security contexts with AWS, working with Linux and/or Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) in a software development context, modern frontend web development frameworks (preferably React), Apache Kafka, working in an agile development environment, Spring/Spring Boot Java web application frameworks, Flask/Django Python web application frameworks, and Keycloak/OAUTH2.
Next, as we are working for the DOD, we are beholden to some requirements. The ideal candidate would already possess an active DOD Secret Clearance, with the ability to obtain TS/SCI without issue, and a DoD IAT Level II certification (e.g., Security+, SSCP).
Not sure if you are qualified but have some skills? Apply anyway! Remember that cross training we talked about? Even if you possess skillsets such as network and system administration and have always wanted to expand your technical prowess into the Cloud arena, we should still talk.
Congratulations, you made it all the way to the end of this job posting! We look forward to learning more about you!
