About Wyetech

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.

Position Overview

The Software Engineer develops, maintains, and enhances complex and diverse software systems (e.g., processing-intensive analytics, novel algorithm development, manipulation of extremely large data sets, real-time systems, and business management information systems) based upon documented requirements. Works individually or as part of a team. Reviews and tests software components for adherence to the design requirements and documents test results. Resolves software problem reports. Utilizes software development and software design methodologies appropriate to the development environment. Provides specific input to the software components of system design to include hardware/software trade-offs, software reuse, use of Commercial Off-the-shelf (COTS)/Government Off-the-shelf (GOTS) in place of new development, and requirements analysis and synthesis from system level to individual software components.

The candidate will be responsible for designing, developing, and maintaining a large set of distributed services written in Go, Java, Python, and Kotlin. The candidate will work with Accumulo and other technologies to ensure the seamless functioning of systems. The candidate should have a strong background in full-stack development and the ability to adapt to new requirements quickly. Candidate work efforts are expected to have a direct impact on the performance and scalability of client services.

Due to federal contract requirements, United States Citizenship and position-appropriate security clearance is required. (e.g., Active TS/SCI security clearance with agency-appropriate polygraph).
