- Software Engineering: Advanced proficiency in Python, JavaScript, SQL, and C++ or C#.
- Security Standards: Demonstrated expertise in RMF, STIG compliance, and secure SDLC practices.
- Relevant technical certifications (CKA/CKAD for Kubernetes, AWS/Azure, CISSP, or GISP).
- Experience with cloud-native geospatial microservices and AI/ML pipeline integration.
- Familiarity with commercial exploitation tools (ENVI, Remote View, ERDAS IMAGINE, Skyline).
- Background supporting Army modernization initiatives or multi-domain operations.
