Fort Meade, MD, United States Bitwise Full time
Hey
Bitwise is a leading provider of mission-focused intelligence solutions that advance national security for the Intelligence Community and Department of Defense. We're a small and growing company, so you can expect to hop in on the ground floor with us and be a consequential member of the team. You'll be more than a contract performer for us - you'll also be asked for ideas to improve our company and improve your career, and you'll contribute to our team culture. We value growth and community above almost all else, so we gather regularly for game nights, happy hours, tech talks, and plenty more. We think you'll like it here
But remember, Bitwise is not a cult.

We ask that every new hire be able to:

  • Interact with our customers and earn their confidence in your abilities

  • Provide support for fielded software systems.
  • Familiarity with Git and Subversion.
  • Atlassian Tools (Jira, Confluence).
  • Experience with production CNO capabilities and operations.
  • Twelve (12) years of experience with a Bachelor's degree in a technical discipline or a Master's degree with 10 years of experience (4 additional years of SWE experience may substitute for a degree).

  • Pick your PTO - Everyone values time and money differently, so we give you the flexibility to choose between 3 and 5 weeks of PTO with a corresponding adjustment to your pay. Your choice, your balance.
  • All 11 federal holidays, paid
  • Up to 2 snow days, paid
  • We'll quadruple (4x) the first 6% you contribute to your 401(k), giving you up to a 24% company match. Contributing less than 6%? Unclaimed matches come right back to you as extra income, giving you a guaranteed 24% that goes to your retirement, to your paycheck, or both. C'mon now
  • 100% employer-paid medical, dental, vision, life, and disability insurances. That's a lot. Already covered on health insurance? No problem - we'll trade you this benefit for a boost to your salary instead.
  • $5,250 annual education assistance for training, certifications, tuition, and even student loan repayments.
  • Spot bonuses for obtained certifications, customer recognition, and just about anything else that makes us go "Hot damn". We hope to say that many times about you.
