Software Engineer- AI

• Write production code daily across Angular/TypeScript, .NET/C#, Python, or whatever the problem requires.
• Use AI coding tools-Claude Code, Copilot, agentic workflows-as your native development environment.
• Own systems end-to-end: architecture implementation testing deployment You understand the constraints of FedRAMP and CMMC and you design around them without slowing down.
• Build on Azure Gov and Commercial using microservices, event-driven patterns, APIs, and data pipelines.
• Deliver projects stuck in backlog: migrations, prototypes, legacy replacements, cross-system fixes.
• Drive IaC (Terraform, Bicep), CI/CD automation, and internal tooling that accelerates the whole team.

Raise the Bar (20%)

• Your code becomes the reference standard for engineering quality.
• Review quickly, teach through building, pair on complex problems.
• Share AI-augmented development techniques-prompting, workflows, context strategies.
• Write practical documentation (READMEs, ADRs), not slide decks.

Inform Technical Direction (10%)

• Provide ground-truth signal on platform gaps, tooling, and engineering friction.
• Evaluate new tech by building with it-real environments, real data.
• Identify and resolve the technical debt that actually slows teams down.

Do you have experience in Software engineering?, You are a Builder

• 2+ years of recent, hands-on software engineering.
• Track record of shipping full systems, not just features.
• Proficiency in at least two: Angular/TypeScript, .NET/C#, Python, Java.
• 1+ year building cloud-native systems (Azure preferred; Azure Gov a plus).
• Comfortable across the stack-infra backend frontend.

AI-Native Workflow

• Daily user of Claude Code, Copilot, Cursor, Windsurf, or equivalent.
• Clear mental model of where AI excels and where it fails.
• Demonstrated examples of shipping faster and better with AI assistance.

Judgment & Engineering Maturity

• Thrives in ambiguity; makes reasonable assumptions and ships.
• Strong but flexible opinions on architecture and developer experience.
• Clear, precise written communication
• Experience building in regulated environments (FedRAMP, CMMC, ITAR, SOC2, HIPAA).
• Must be a U.S. Person. We are not able to consider candidates requiring sponsorship at this time.

Preferred Qualifications:

You are exactly who we are looking for if you:

• Azure Government (IL2/IL4/IL5), Entra ID, PIM, managed identities, Zero Trust.
• IAM, credentialing, PKI, or federated identity background.
• Experience building dev tools, internal platforms, or shared infra.
• Aerospace & Defense, Life Sciences, or other regulated SaaS environments.
• Agentic AI development experience (MCP, multi-tool workflows, AI-driven testing).
• A prototype or side project demonstrating best-in-class AI-augmented development.

Pulled from the full job description

• Tuition reimbursement, Exostar’s cloud-based platforms create exclusive communities within the Aerospace and Defense, Life Sciences, and other highly regulated industries where members securely collaborate, share information, and operate compliantly.
