STR
Overview
STRs Intelligence Division researches and develops advanced analytics and machine learning-based solutions to solve challenging problems related to national security. Our team consists of engineers with advanced degrees in engineering, computer science, mathematics, and data science who tackle hard problems for government customers. Our projects span multiple data modalities and employ advanced algorithms, deep learning, and statistical techniques to uncover patterns in social media, text, time series, geospatial, and imagery data, often under constraints not typically found in the commercial world. The tools we develop have real world impact and US Government analysts use them to extract and enrich intelligence information globally. The Role:
As a Senior Software Engineer, you will leverage your skills in systems and software development to operationalize advanced statistical machine learning algorithms and support production-level systems. You will work with software engineers and researchers to design cutting?edge solutions to challenging problems impacting national security, including classification, anomaly detection, forecasting, and more. You will also interact with customers to understand requirements and apply feedback. Positions are available in Woburn, MA and Arlington, VA. Due to the nature of our work, applicants should expect to primarily work onsite. What you will do
Collaborate to create and maintain software for data pipelines, algorithms, storage, and access Build infrastructure for extraction, transformation, and loading using SQL and AWS technologies Architect and implement capabilities for integrating technologies and orchestrating workflows Build analytic tools that utilize data pipelines to provide actionable insights into customer requests Identify, design, and implement internal process improvements Monitor data for changes that could significantly impact system performance Develop and execute plans to mitigate issues, maximize uptime, and ensure system performance Who you are
Active Top Secret security clearance, for which U.S. citizenship is needed by U.S. Government Motivated collaborator looking to work with a large and distributed team Ability to lead and direct development initiatives from inception to prototype and production BS, MS, or PhD in a related field or equivalent experience 5+ years of experience in one or more high level programming languages, like Python Experience with AWS cloud services, SQL, and a variety of databases Experience working with large datasets, building and optimizing pipelines and architectures Experience in navigating and contributing to complex, large code bases Even Better (you should have several of these, but all of them are not required)
Possession of Security+ or other certifications Experience developing processes for data transformation and workload management Experience with development of REST APIs, access control, and auditing Experience with DevOps pipelines Experience using the following software/tools: Big Data tools: e.g. Hadoop, Spark, Kafka, ElasticSearch Data Lakes: e.g. Delta Lake, Apache Hudi, Apache Iceberg Distributed Data Warehouse Frontends: e.g. Apache Hive, Presto Data pipeline and workflow management tools: e.g Luigi, Airflow Dashboard frontends: e.g. Grafana, Kibana Stream-processing systems: e.g. Storm, Spark-Streaming About STR
