Full-Time Senior Technical Team Lead
Job Description
Our Software Engineers are breaking new ground within the Air Force, changing the way the Department of Defense builds software. We build, measure, and learn; creating war-winning software iteratively. No longer are we building off of multi-year plans with stacks of requirements.
Engineers at Kessel Run balance user needs, organizational outcomes, and technical feasibility in order to build value quickly while still considering the big picture. Our teams are flat and balanced, with Developers, Designers, and Product Managers working in concert, empowered to build the software we know our warfighters need.
You MUST be a U.S. citizen to apply and must be eligible to obtain a U.S. Security Clearance (see eligibility requirements here).
Day In The Life
A typical day as a Kessel Run Software Engineer starts with your caffeinated beverage of choice and a team stand-up to align on goals for the day. As a senior engineer you will use Test-Driven Development to implement user stories from the product’s backlog. You will maintain our core engineering values, helping spread context to more junior engineers.
You will help Product Managers write stories by providing input on technical complexity and feasibility. You will be empowered to learn continuously, and guide others to learn continuously. You will work closely with your PM and Designer in a balanced team to define product direction. You will ensure code quality stays high, and give productive guidance when it falters. You will lead architecture decisions, and help other engineers understand the “why” behind them.
