About Us

At Secunetics, we make IT safer. As the innovators behind Gobo Framework—a FedRAMP-authorized SaaS platform—we deliver automated, AI-powered solutions that manage network performance and streamline mission-critical workflows for federal agencies. Beyond our technology, we are a platform for our people, defined by a culture of courage, ownership, and an unrelenting drive to solve the most complex infrastructure challenges.

What You Will Do:

●      Engineer AI-Powered Solutions: Design, build, and deploy intelligent agents within the Gobo
      Framework to automate complex federal workflows.

●      Develop Robust APIs: Architect and consume secure, scalable RESTful APIs that serve as the
      backbone for mission-critical applications.

●      Ensure Code Integrity: Implement comprehensive automated unit tests and end-to-end testing
      frameworks to maintain high reliability in high-stakes environments.

●      Optimize Data Architecture: Develop and manage sophisticated data structures across relational
      databases and large-scale data warehouses.

●      Implement Security-First Development: Incorporate proactive mitigations for web application security

●      You possess a deep understanding of full-stack web application development.

●      You have a passion for building AI-driven agents and tools, and you view AI as a catalyst for
      professional growth and skills amplification. You build with AI every day, and you own every line of code
      produced. You can spot when a model is confidently wrong, and you do not ship what you cannot
      explain.

●      You thrive at the intersection of rapid development velocity and strict security compliance.

●      You are not just a programmer; you get involved with the entire SDLC, from requirements analysis and
      planning to implementation, testing, deployment, and long-term maintenance.

●      You treat code reviews as engineering work rather than a formality.

●      You are a collaborative problem-solver who enjoys direct interaction with colleagues and clients to solve
       complex challenges.

●      You are a willing and able to be cleared to the Top Secret level.

Additional Preferences:

●      Experience developing applications for cloud platforms such as Google Cloud Platform (Google Cloud Platform) or
      Amazon Web Services (AWS)

●      Broad understanding of AI/ML technologies with the ability to identify and implement diverse,
      architecturally sound solutions beyond basic LLM prompting
