Your Impact
We're looking for a Full‑Stack Software Engineer Sr to power the digital backbone of the F‑35 Joint Strike Fighter Composite Control Surface Edges fabrication shops, as well as the Advanced Development Program Shunk Works Lines of Business. As a Forward Deployed Engineer, you’ll build modern, scalable web apps with React, Angular, .NET Core, Node.js, Docker/Kubernetes, and cloud services, turning complex production data into intuitive interfaces that streamline workflows and boost efficiency. What makes this role unique is the hands‑on collaboration with Production Operations — you’ll spend time shadowing on the shop floor and in business meetings listening for pain points to rapidly prototype solutions. Join a mission‑critical environment where your code directly supports a world‑class defense platform, benefit from top‑tier mentors, competitive compensation, and a culture that prizes innovation, safety, and impact.
What You Will Be Doing
1. Develop, test, deploy and support full-stack applications that enable production operations use cases.
2. Design data pipelines and database solutions to integrate manufacturing systems and automate workflow processes.
3. Build full-stack web applications to streamline data collection and management across production systems.
4. Create real-time dashboards and data visualizations that enable leadership and floor supervisors to make informed decisions.
5. This role involves directly interfacing with technical and non-technical users to truly understand their needs and then rapidly iterating to develop an application that they will love to use.
