The candidate will own the architecture, implementation, and delivery of the production pipeline &mdash; a stream ingestion, rollup, and post-processing system that operates on NDF (Network Description File) data produced by TDMA network sensors in dense, contested RF environments. The candidate will lead a small team of senior software engineers, coordinate closely with the program technical lead and AI/ML researchers to drive Cyber Operations software from prototype to production-quality, resource-efficient components deployable on tactical edge hardware. This is a hands-on technical leadership role: the Principal Engineer writes code, makes architecture decisions, and is accountable for pipeline performance and reliability in support of real world cyber operations.</p><p style='margin:0in;font-size:16px;font-family:\"Arial\",sans-serif;'><br></p><p style='margin:0in;font-size:16px;font-family:\"Arial\",sans-serif;'><strong><u>Responsibilities:</u></strong></p><div style='margin:0in;font-size:16px;font-family:\"Arial\",sans-serif;'><ul style=\"margin-bottom:0in;margin-left: 0in;\"><li style=\"margin: 0in; font-size: 16px; font-family: arial, sans-serif;\">Own the architecture and implementation of the production software pipeline, including stream ingestion, rollup, database write, and batch post-processing components</li><li style=\"margin: 0in; font-size: 16px; font-family: arial, sans-serif;\">Lead a team of Senior Software Engineers in support of real world cyber operations; assign work, conduct code reviews, enforce quality standards, and provide technical mentorship</li><li style=\"margin: 0in; font-size: 16px; font-family: arial, sans-serif;\">Establish and maintain disciplined software engineering practices: versioning, CI/CD pipelines, unit and integration testing, and documentation standards</li><li style=\"margin: 0in; font-size: 16px; font-family: arial, sans-serif;\">Design and evaluate database and storage architecture for the tactical system and research enclave environments</li><li style=\"margin: 0in; font-size: 16px; font-family: arial, sans-serif;\">Collaborate with the program technical lead to translate research findings and batch optimization algorithms into production pipeline components</li><li style=\"margin: 0in; font-size: 16px; font-family: arial, sans-serif;\">Evaluate and benchmark Python pipeline performance on tactical-box-spec hardware; identify bottlenecks and lead porting of mature components to Rust or C for edge deployment</li><li style=\"margin: 0in; font-size: 16px; font-family: arial, sans-serif;\">Manage and coordinate the tactical system VM environment and stream simulation infrastructure; ensure research VM is not disrupted by development activity</li><li style=\"margin: 0in; font-size: 16px; font-family: arial, sans-serif;\">Define and enforce stream interface contracts between the ingestion layer, database, and downstream consumers</li><li style=\"margin: 0in; font-size: 16px; font-family: arial, sans-serif;\">Evaluate emerging technologies (e.g., DuckDB/Parquet, Polars, message queues) against program requirements and recommend adoption decisions to the technical lead</li><li style=\"margin: 0in; font-size: 16px; font-family: arial, sans-serif;\">Maintain the program&rsquo;s GitLab repository structure, branching strategy, and release management</li><li style=\"margin: 0in; font-size: 16px; font-family: arial, sans-serif;\">Produce clear technical documentation including architecture decision records, interface specifications, and deployment guides</li><li style=\"margin: 0in; font-size: 16px; font-family: arial, sans-serif;\">Support technical reviews and provide written inputs for sponsor deliverables as directed by the program technical lead</li></ul></div><p style='margin:0in;font-size:16px;font-family:\"Arial\",sans-serif;'><span style=\"font-family: arial,sans-serif;\"><br></span></p><p style='margin:0in;font-size:16px;font-family:\"Arial\",sans-serif;'><span style=\"font-family: arial,sans-serif;\">Expert-level career professional with broad and deep application of software engineering principles across the full development lifecycle.
