Secunetics, Inc
Reston, VA Full Time
POSTED ON 8/1/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 8/31/2026
About Us

At Secunetics, we make IT safer. As the innovators behind Gobo Framework-a FedRAMP-authorized SaaS platform-we deliver automated, AI-powered solutions that manage network performance and streamline mission-critical workflows for federal agencies. Beyond our technology, we are a platform for our people, defined by a culture of courage, ownership, and an unrelenting drive to solve the most complex infrastructure challenges.

What You Will Do:
  • Engineer AI-Powered Solutions: Design, build, and deploy intelligent agents within the Gobo Framework to automate complex federal workflows.
  • Develop Robust APIs: Architect and consume secure, scalable RESTful APIs that serve as the backbone for mission-critical applications.
  • Ensure Code Integrity: Implement comprehensive automated unit tests and end-to-end testing frameworks to maintain high reliability in high-stakes environments.
  • Optimize Data Architecture: Develop and manage sophisticated data structures across relational databases and large-scale data warehouses.
  • Implement Security-First Development: Incorporate proactive mitigations for web application security risks directly into the software development lifecycle.
  • Drive Innovation: Collaborate with cross-functional teams to transform complex infrastructure requirements into elegant, automated software solutions.

Who You Are:
  • You value engineering excellence and doing things the right way.
  • You possess a deep understanding of full-stack web application development.
  • You have a passion for building AI-driven agents and tools, and you view AI as a catalyst for professional growth and skills amplification. You build with AI every day, and you own every line of code produced. You can spot when a model is confidently wrong, and you do not ship what you cannot explain.
  • You thrive at the intersection of rapid development velocity and strict security compliance.
  • You are not just a programmer; you get involved with the entire SDLC, from requirements analysis and planning to implementation, testing, deployment, and long-term maintenance.
  • You treat code reviews as engineering work rather than a formality.
  • You are a collaborative problem-solver who enjoys direct interaction with colleagues and clients to solve complex challenges.
  • You are a US citizen or Green Card holder willing and able to be cleared to the Top Secret level.

Required Technical Expertise:
  • Python
  • JavaScript and/or TypeScript
  • Experience developing with agentic coding tools
  • Experience developing automated unit tests and end-to-end tests
  • Experience developing and consuming RESTful APIs
  • Experience developing with relational databases and data warehouses
  • Deep understanding of web application security risks and mitigations
  • Experience debugging failures in a running production system using logs, traces, and metrics

Additional Preferences:
  • Experience developing applications for cloud platforms such as Google Cloud Platform (GCP) or Amazon Web Services (AWS)
  • Broad understanding of AI/ML technologies with the ability to identify and implement diverse, architecturally sound solutions beyond basic LLM prompting
  • Exposure to networking and security concepts and technologies
  • Experience with containerization (e.g., Docker) and container orchestration with Kubernetes
  • An undergraduate or graduate degree in computer science or related field
