- Implement APIs and orchestration logic enabling agents and services to collaborate effectively

- Implement and maintain Infrastructure as Code (IaC) to provision and manage cloud environments

- Collaborate with systems engineers and ISSEs to translate requirements and security controls into code

- Contribute to Git-based development workflows, including pull/merge requests, code reviews, and documentation

- Support CI/CD pipelines and secure deployments aligned with ATO requirements

- Produce clear technical documentation covering code, agent behavior, and system interactions

- Contribute to an 'everything as code' approach, expressing infrastructure, automation, agent behavior, workflows, and operational artifacts as version-controlled, testable code

**Required Skills and Experience**

- BS degree and 4+ years of professional software development experience

- Proficiency in at least one modern programming language (Python preferred; Java or Go acceptable)

- Experience building backend services, APIs, or microservices
