Works on complex technical problems requiring strong engineering judgment and innovative solutions. Independently designs and implements software capabilities while contributing to architecture, engineering practices, and technical direction. Serves as a technical resource and mentor to other engineers. Are you looking for an opportunity to build challenging software with a meaningful impact in the defense and aviation industries? As a Staff Software Engineer, you'll be a highly skilled, hands-on member of the engineering team designing and building modern software that processes, analyzes, and visualizes large volumes of data in near real time. You'll spend most of your time solving difficult engineering problems and building software. You'll work across the stack, contribute to architecture, and turn ambiguous requirements into reliable, maintainable products. You'll have significant autonomy and are expected to recognize problems, determine practical solutions, and drive work to completion without extensive direction. What You'll Work On: * Design, develop, test, debug, and maintain production software across the stack. * Design and implement scalable, distributed, event-driven, near-real-time systems using TypeScript, Node.js, React.js, and Next.js. * Design and implement REST APIs, backend services, event-driven data pipelines, and distributed messaging using technologies such as Kafka. * Design and optimize PostgreSQL databases, data models, and data access patterns. * Develop containerized applications using Docker and deploy cloud-based capabilities across AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud Platform. * Design and maintain CI/CD pipelines using tools such as GitHub Actions or Jenkins. * Contribute to software architecture and technical decisions, balancing performance, scalability, reliability, maintainability, and development velocity. * Troubleshoot complex issues across application, infrastructure, networking, and data layers. * Participate in technical design and code reviews and help establish practical engineering standards. * Work with engineers, product owners, and customers to translate evolving requirements into effective technical solutions. * Take ownership of significant technical capabilities from design through implementation, deployment, and ongoing support. * Share knowledge and mentor other engineers through collaboration, code reviews, and technical guidance. ## Related Videos - [Remote Driving on Plant Grounds with State-of-the-Art Cloud Technologies](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/251-remote-driving-on-plant-grounds-with-state-of-the-art-cloud-technologies) - [The Road to MLOps: How Verivox Transitioned to AWS](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1050-the-road-to-mlops-how-verivox-transitioned-to-aws) - [Innovating Developer Tools with AI: Insights from GitHub Next](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1268-innovating-developer-tools-with-ai-insights-from-github-next) - [Docker Compose: Rediscovered](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1978-docker-compose-rediscovered) - [Our GitOps approach for deploying an Identity Provider and an API Gateway in a SaaS company](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/776-our-gitops-approach-for-deploying-an-identity-provider-and-an-api-gateway-in-a-saas-company) - [Bringing AI Model Testing and Prompt Management to Your Codebase with GitHub Models](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1536-bringing-ai-model-testing-and-prompt-management-to-your-codebase-with-github-models) ## Related Articles - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [Dev Digest 120 - Apple and peers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/455-dev-digest-120-apple-and-peers) - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [Dev Digest 121 - AI goes offline](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/456-dev-digest-121-ai-goes-offline) - [What’s the Difference between a Junior, Mid, and Senior Developer?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/238-what-s-the-difference-between-a-junior-mid-and-senior-developer) - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated)
