Software Engineer with Security Clearance

We are seeking a highly specialized, dedicated Data Analytics and Software Engineer to serve as the Production team's sole technical anchor and 'unicorn' problem-solver, with an active DOD Secret clearance. This position will operate with a high degree of autonomy to modernize, automate, and streamline production execution. Immediate focus will be to untangle complex, disparate data streams and build scalable, user-friendly tools that directly improve the ability to deliver data to airborne ISR assets.
