Software Engineer, DevOps

Overview

At Wyetech, you’ll be at the center of an award-winning corporate culture, breaking technological barriers and solving real-world problems for our federal government customers. We are committed to hiring the best of the best, and in return, we offer a world-class, truly unique employee experience that is rare within our industry.

The Software Engineer designs, develops, tests, deploys, documents, maintains, and enhances complex and diverse software systems based upon documented requirements. These systems might include, but are not limited to, processing intensive analytics, novel algorithm development, manipulation of extremely large data sets, real‑time systems, business management information systems, and systems which incorporate data repositories, data transport services, and application and systems development and monitoring.

The role works individually or as part of a team, reviews and tests software components for adherence to the design requirements, resolves software problem reports, and utilizes appropriate software development and design methodologies. The candidate must have experience developing in Unix, ability to perform shell scripting, and working knowledge of configuration management tools and web services implementation.

The Dev Ops Software Engineer shall be responsible for software integration efforts, development of framework solutions, and maintaining automated infrastructure solutions to ensure high availability and scalability of HPC systems in a Linux environment. In this role, the engineer will work closely with stakeholders to streamline the deployment pipeline and optimize system performance.

Due to federal contract requirements, United States citizenship and a position‑appropriate security clearance is required (e.g., active TS/SCI clearance with agency‑appropriate polygraph).
