- Design and implement Python-based software systems that integrate data pipelines, analysis automation, and scalable backend services.
- Support the creation of reproducible test environments using virtualization, containerization, and DevOps workflows.
- Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure-as-code templates, and cloud deployments to enable secure, mission-ready development environments.
- Work in Linux-based development environments and contribute to system observability, performance tuning, and usability enhancements.
- Contribute to architectural design discussions, code reviews, and cross-functional sprint planning.
Minimum Qualifications:
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field (or equivalent experience)
- 3–5 years of experience in software engineering with a focus on Python development
- Strong background in DevOps practices including CI/CD, containerization (Docker), and infrastructure tools (e.g., GitLab CI, Terraform, Ansible)
- Proficiency in Linux environments and version control systems like Git
- Experience working with REST APIs, backend frameworks, and databases (e.g., PostgreSQL, Elasticsearch)
- Familiarity with systems-level software or mobile platforms such as Android
- Strong written and verbal communication skills and comfort working in agile teams
Nice to Have:
- Prior experience supporting reverse engineering, vulnerability research, or cybersecurity tool development
- Exposure to Android internals, embedded Linux systems, or mobile development environments
- Experience with cloud platforms such as AWS, GCP, or Azure
- Familiarity with scripting, test harness development, and emulated device environments
