Cryptographic Software Engineer

• Architect robust cryptographic software using functional and multi-paradigm design patterns, validated by comprehensive unit, integration, and system-level test suites.
• Develop cross-platform desktop and server applications, leveraging containerization, automated deployment pipelines, and low-level network tools.
• Implement cryptographic primitives and secure protocols (e.g., PKI, symmetric/asymmetric ciphers, cryptographic hashing, and low-level TCP/IP stacks) into production systems.
• Deliver cryptographic solutions and cybersecurity analysis to strengthen security posture, testing, and certification for Intelligence Community (IC) deployments.
• Engineer high-assurance data protection systems and secure computing architectures to safeguard critical national security infrastructure.

• Bachelor’s Degree in technical discipline and 14+ years of software and/or security engineering experience (or 18+ years without a degree).
• Proficiency in systems-level programming languages, specifically C, C++, or Rust, for high-assurance cryptographic software development.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience with high-grade network encryptors, Key Management Infrastructure, and secure key distribution protocols.
• Direct background supporting IC or DoD cryptographic engineering, evaluation, or system certification initiatives.

Clearance Requirements:

• Active TS/SCI with Polygraph.

Physical Requirements:

• Must be able to remain in a stationary position 50%.
