Senior Principal Software Engineer
Company Overview
CCG is a technology company focused on equipping customers with the capabilities and support to conduct intelligent and successful cyber operations. We do this by finding the most talented engineers and operators in the country, give them some of the most challenging problems facing the US government, and help them unleash their creativity and problem-solving skills. Excellence is our standard and mission success is our metric.
Role
We are building a platform to support cyber development activities and eventual coordination and orchestration of cyber missions. This project will be focused on prototyping solutions that will be aligned with the long term vision of governments ideal architecture. Specifically, you will:
Lead the system architecture design and concepts for the system
Lead technical discussions and design meetings
Engage with the customer and external partners to understand the goals and approach
Explore and understand existing capabilities, tools, and libraries that can be leveraged to achieve the end-state
Decompose complex problems into straightforward and actionable solutions
Generate and maintain a backlog of high level features
Demonstrate thought leadership and strategy in partnership with delivery and product partners;
Lead Architecture Review Boards, and other product, platform, and architecture discussions;
Present work products and strategies to customer leadership and other stakeholders
Establish technical standards and guidelines for a large team of developers.
Though primary responsibility for making priority decisions, architecture plans, and ensuring proper team execution is yours, you will not operate on an island. You will have the support of our CTO, a team of tech leads, other engineers, and an engaged customer. You will also be encouraged to explore the technology space enough to understand the unique technical components involved.
Finally, you are expected to be the Subject Matter Expert for customer demos and discussions. As such, you will want to know the ins and outs of the full product being developed. You must have the ability to participate in highside discussions and access highside IT when required. This can be accessed via our secure office space in Herndon, VA. Any tasks not requiring an onsite presence can be done remotely; this is a hybrid opportunity.
