## Description

As a Software Engineer, you will develop, integrate, test, and maintain software that supports advanced analytics, machine learning, and intelligence workflows. You will work with a multidisciplinary team to transform defined requirements and technical designs into reliable, maintainable, and mission-relevant software capabilities.

You will contribute across the development lifecycle, including implementation, debugging, testing, documentation, integration, and operational support. This role provides opportunities to grow technical depth and independently own well-defined components within larger systems.

What You Will Do

 * Develop software: Implement, test, debug, and maintain software components, services, APIs, data-processing capabilities, tools, or user interfaces
 * Deliver assigned capabilities: Work from requirements and technical designs to complete well-scoped features, modules, integrations, and defect fixes
 * Support integration and test: Participate in unit, integration, system, and regression testing; troubleshoot issues and support demonstrations and releases
 * Apply engineering practices: Use version control, code review, automated testing, issue tracking, documentation, and secure coding practices
 * Collaborate across the team: Work with software engineers, systems engineers, researchers, and other stakeholders to clarify requirements and resolve technical issues
 * Improve existing systems: Identify opportunities to improve reliability, performance, maintainability, usability, and testability of existing software
 * Build technical depth: Learn team technologies, domain context, development workflows, and deployment environments while taking increasing ownership of assigned work
