Herndon, Virginia, United States The DarkStar Group LLC Full time


The DarkStar Group LLC is seeking a highly skilled Senior Full Stack Software Engineer with a Top Secret clearance to join our team in Herndon, VA.

Below is an overview of the project, as well as information on our company, our benefits, and our $25,000 referral program.


THE PROJECT
The DarkStar Group's team solves unique and challenging intelligence problems for a Special Operations customer.

This work is as close to the mission as a technologist can get, so the environment is fast-paced: team members face rapidly-changing requirements and priorities as mission needs evolve.

If you hate monotony and want to use your skills to have a direct impact on real-world operational success, this is the project for you.


We are a multi-faceted software development and systems administration team working to build and maintain software applications backed by a self-managed cloud infrastructure (OpenStack) with a true big-data footprint (over 10 petabytes).

Our diverse background of experience in mission support and software development serves as a catalyst to solve unique and challenging intelligence problems in support of special operations analysts and their on-going activities.

Prototyping and frequent, iterative feedback are core to our delivery approach, anchored by a need to work quickly in support of our missions.


The technical stack is quite robust and includes Java, Python, C#, C/C++, Geospatial tools, Big Data and Graph Products (Hadoop, MapReduce, Spark, ElasticSearch, Neo4j), Linux, OpenStack, AWS, Ansible, SQL/NoSQL, Text Processing, Cloud Services, Containerization, Infrastructure as Code (IAC), and more.


Work on this program takes place in the Herndon, VA area (we cannot support remote work) and requires a TS clearance and a willingness to obtain a CI Poly: a current TS/SCI + CI Poly is preferred.


THE ROLE


Developing web applications for real-time query and analysis of our petabyte-scale data store, creating distributed analytics purpose-built to support our mission partners, and helping to construct new and maintain existing data pipelines tasked with automatically retrieving and ingesting data.

Required Skills

Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Software Engineering or a related field (4 additional years of experience may be substituted for a Bachelor's degree. A Master's degree may count as an additional 2 years of experience.).
8+ years demonstrated experience with programming, design, and development.
In-depth knowledge in Python, Java, or similar programming language.
Working knowledge of containerization (Docker, Podman) and container orchestration (Kubernetes, Nomad, etc).
Experience with ORM software (Django, SQLAlchemy, Hibernate, etc)
Working knowledge of Linux operating systems (navigating the filesystem, common management commands, etc)
Understanding of TCP/IP networking and working knowledge of remote system workflows (SSH, port forwarding, server/client architecture, etc)
Exposure to building and supporting solutions in a cloud like environment (such as OpenStack).
Working knowledge of agile software development practices and tools, such as GitLab
Desired Skills (Optional)

Experience deploying, maintaining, and utilizing an Elasticsearch cluster.
Experience with Spark.
Experience with Hadoop (HDFS, YARN)
Experience using Python web frameworks (Django, FastAPI, etc)
Experience with front-end development using React, Angular, or other JS framework.
API Rest Framework development/maintenance.
Data flow orchestration using Nifi or similar.
Experience with provision and configuration management tools such as Ansible, Terraform, or similar.

You are a creative and driven problem-solver who wants to apply breakthrough technologies to support a platform actively used by thousands of users supporting mission.

Strong verbal, written, and organizational skills.
