Senior Full Stack Integration Engineer

About Us:

Collaborative autonomy is how self‑tasking teams of machines will solve hard human problems, and HavocAI is an unquestioned leader in collaborative autonomy. We set the standard for autonomous surface vessels for a wide range of defense and commercial maritime missions. Success requires us to grow quickly, and we’re looking for teammates who are passionate about solving hard problems, about pushing the envelope, and about preventing conflict and saving lives.

Ambition is welcome to apply within.

HavocAI is seeking a Senior Full‑Stack Integration Engineer to help lead a new team focused on building integrations above the vehicle platform layer. This team will connect C2‑to‑C2 systems, communications stacks, and other mission‑critical software across commercial and customer‑facing environments.

This senior role blends program‑based integration work with core full‑stack engineering responsibilities across backend services, APIs, SDKs, and customer‑ and developer‑facing interfaces. You will operate across the full stack to deliver commercial‑grade integration solutions, bringing both breadth and depth to systems integration.

As a senior engineer, you will help shape technical direction, mentor other team members, and own integrations end to end. You will also build, maintain, and grow HavocAI’s open‑source SDKs, including engaging with and supporting the developer community that uses them.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives in high‑level object modeling, system interoperability, full‑stack development, and translating complex requirements into reliable, production‑ready integrations for commercial customers.

• Lead the design, development, and maintenance of integrations between C2 systems, communications platforms, and related infrastructure
• Build full‑stack solutions spanning backend services, APIs, SDKs, and front‑end interfaces that support commercial integration needs
• Build and extend open‑source SDKs, ensuring they are reliable, well‑documented, and easy to use
• Engage with and support the open‑source developer community, fostering adoption, feedback, and contribution
• Model and design high‑level abstractions that enable interoperability across diverse systems
• Collaborate with Product, Platform, Autonomy, Cloud, Commercial, and customer‑facing teams to deliver integration solutions aligned with mission and customer needs
• Translate complex customer, program, and technical requirements into scalable integration architectures
• Mentor engineers and contribute to internal standards and best practices for integration architecture, full‑stack development, and community‑facing SDK development
• Own integrations end to end, from technical discovery and architecture through implementation, validation, deployment, and support

• 7+ years of senior‑level software engineering experience, with a track record of owning complex projects end to end
• Strong programming experience in Go and Python
• Full‑stack development experience, including modern front‑end frameworks such as React and Type Script, alongside backend services
• Demonstrated experience designing and implementing system integrations, including APIs, SDKs, communications interfaces, or distributed software systems
• Ability to model high‑level abstractions and design integration architectures across complex systems
• Experience with version control, CI/CD, and containerized environments, including Git, Docker, and Kubernetes
• Excellent communication skills and ability to collaborate across technical and non‑technical stakeholders
• Strong ownership, technical judgment, and ability to operate in ambiguity
• Must be a U.S. Citizen and eligible to obtain a U.S. Government security clearance

• Background in mission systems, C2 platforms, distributed communication systems, or customer‑facing integration environments
• Experience building commercial or customer‑facing software products
• Experience contributing to or maintaining open‑source projects
• Familiarity with data serialization formats such as JSON, Protobuf, or CBOR
• Familiarity with messaging and communication protocols such as MQTT, gRPC, or DDS
