Senior Software Engineer - Fedramp

About the role

At Vannevar we’re consistently iterating on AI-enabled software products to deter our adversaries and lead the fight for strategic competition. This often involves meeting our customers where they’re at - on government networks, higher classification systems, and bespoke deployments. Compliance and security are core principles in how we build software to support the warfighter.

We’re seeking an experienced Senior Software Engineer who can work across the stack, while also providing expertise in Dev Ops, security, and compliance. An ideal member of the team has previously helped move a software system to a government/DoD environment, can work quickly in complex environments, and has great communication skills.

• Own the technical roadmap and execution plan to achieve successful deployment of a key product suite to a government authorized system.
• Design, build, and harden our product suite within a compliant cloud environment.
• Work cross-functionally across product teams to help align timelines and develop solutions hands-on to meet security controls.
• Implement strong change control: security impact analysis, testing/validation plans, and stakeholder notifications for significant changes.

• Be the subject matter expert for this effort - the company will look to you for progress reports, external talking points, and guidance.
• Mentor engineers on secure design and operational excellence in regulated environments.
• Write guidelines, documentation, and create architecture diagrams for external and internal consumption.
• Translate between “government compliance language” and “engineering reality.”

• 7+ years working in a Dev Sec Ops  capacity
• Experience deploying software into a government-authorized environment (FedRAMP, IL4/IL5/IL6, JWICS) or experience taking a system through a compliance process (SOC II, HIPAA, PCI, etc.)
• Full-stack experience - willing to get hand-on across our full stack (React/Node/Python stack)
• Strong foundation in security principles and experience developing software against security controls (e.g. NIST SP 800-53)
• Experience working with AWS Gov Cloud
• Experience working in a fast-paced environment
• Exceptional communication skills

• Experience working for a contractor of the DoW or government agencies
• An active government clearance

The salary range for this position is $150,000 - $215,000 + equity. Within the range, individual pay is determined by experience, relevant education, and/or training.

We’re proud to offer competitive benefits that support our employees. Some key highlights of our benefits package include:

• Health, dental, and vision insurance
• Remote friendly with WeWork access
• Unlimited PTO, shared downtime during the federal holiday calendar, and company-wide off time at the end of each year
• 401(k) match
• Salary top-up during military reserve duty
• Fully paid parental leave
• Child and pet care reimbursement during travel
