Newmoyergeospatial
Senior Software Engineer (Geospatial Full-Stack)
Newmoyergeospatial, Charleston, South Carolina, United States, 29408
Location:
Charleston, SC (will consider remote)
Company:
Newmoyer Geospatial Solutions (NGS)
Type:
Full-time
About NGS
NGS builds modern geospatial and C5ISR software for the U.S. Department of Defense and other federal customers. We leverage open-source technology and deep mission expertise to deliver secure, scalable systems that solve real-world problems for warfighters and government agencies. We are a small, focused team with a strong track record of delivering complex solutions under real constraints. Our customers rely on us to cut through the noise, move fast, and deliver results that work.
The Role
We’re hiring a Senior Software Engineer to lead the development of advanced geospatial software solutions for our DoD and federal projects. This is a senior,
highly hands-on
technical leadership role – you’ll shape system architecture, guide a small team of developers, and still write code to solve complex problems. You’ll work closely with our CTO and project managers to ensure our solutions meet mission requirements and strict security standards. As a leader in a small company, you’ll wear many hats: one day you might design a new microservice for our CoreSpatial platform, the next you’re mentoring a junior developer or briefing a military stakeholder on system capabilities.
This role requires strong alignment with our mission and customer culture. Our ideal candidate is excited to support U.S. defense and intelligence missions (including Special Operations), thrives in a fast‑paced environment, and can seamlessly bridge high-level system planning with roll‑up-your-sleeves implementation.
TS security clearance is highly preferred , as it will allow you to hit the ground running on classified projects.
Responsibilities: Architecture & Development
Lead the design and architecture of geospatial web services and applications, ensuring scalability, security (e.g. DISA STIG compliance), and high performance for enterprise deployments.
Develop and review code across the full stack (front‑end, back‑end, database), setting high standards for code quality, maintainability, and DevSecOps best practices.
Team Leadership & Mentoring
Manage and mentor a small team of software engineers, providing technical guidance, code reviews, and support in problem‑solving.
Drive an agile development process by coordinating sprints and tasks, maintaining a high‑velocity, high‑quality output while fostering a collaborative team culture.
Mission Engagement
Work closely with project managers and end users (warfighters, analysts) to translate mission requirements into effective software solutions.
Communicate progress and complex technical concepts to stakeholders, including non‑technical clients; ensure our software meets real‑world operational needs and can be fielded successfully.
Troubleshoot and resolve critical issues under tight timelines, demonstrating adaptability and dedication to the mission.
Ideal Experience (We’re looking for someone who…)
Has
10+ years of software development experience
across the full stack, with significant time in a senior or lead engineer role.
Has a proven track record architecting, building, and deploying complex, enterprise‑grade software systems (distributed, scalable, and secure).
Is proficient in our core tech stack (or similar technologies): e.g.
Golang and/or Java (Spring Boot)
for back‑end development, modern
JavaScript/TypeScript frameworks (React)
for front‑end, and geospatial databases/tools like
PostgreSQL/PostGIS, GDAL, GeoServer .
Has hands‑on familiarity with
GIS and geospatial data
(coordinate systems, spatial data formats); experience building mapping or geospatial applications is a big plus.
Has prior experience working on
DoD or federal government projects
– understanding DoD environments, security practices, and data standards. (Experience supporting SOCOM or other defense/intel missions is highly valued.)
Possesses strong leadership and communication skills – able to lead a team, manage multiple priorities or projects, and collaborate effectively with both technical and non‑technical stakeholders.
Holds a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
U.S. citizenship is required.
Active
Secret or Top Secret clearance
(or the ability to obtain one) is
strongly preferred
for this role.
What You Get
Flexibility:
We support remote work and flexible schedules. Many team members are remote, so you can work in the way that suits you best.
Impact:
Work on mission‑critical applications that directly support the U.S. military and intelligence community – your contributions will have a real impact on national security.
Cutting‑Edge Tech:

Small‑Team Environment:
Work closely with company leadership in an agile, low‑bureaucracy setting. Your ideas can directly influence product decisions and company direction.
Recognition:
Your contributions will be highly visible. In our small company, good work is noticed and appreciated – you’ll see the difference you make for both NGS and our clients.
