Provide support for additional web applications as needed, including taking ownership of both front-end and back-end tasks.

Document code, processes, and technical decisions to ensure maintainability and knowledge sharing within the team.

Collaborate closely with team members and stakeholders to understand requirements and ensure that solutions align with aerospace-focused project goals.

Understanding of DevOps practices and experience working with GitHub pipelines for continuous integration and deployment.

Ability to participate in and contribute to the full software development lifecycle, from requirements gathering through deployment.

Bachelor's degree in a related field.

Ability to obtain a security clearance, including meeting all eligibility requirements.

Additional Skills & Qualifications

Comfort working in a small team where each engineer has broad ownership and responsibility.
