## Job description

Reinventing Geospatial (RGi) is a leading expert in geospatial solutions for Defense, Intelligence, and Federal clients. We enhance situational awareness for soldiers and analysts by integrating software development with geospatial intelligence. Our projects range from data collection to advanced deep learning, leveraging tools like Python, Java, and ArcGIS.

We don't just fill roles we build teams of high performers and leaders who make an immediate impact. At our core, we're driven by innovation and powered by people who work at the intersection of passion and performance. Here, you'll collaborate with bold thinkers, leverage cutting edge technology, and tackle meaningful challenges from day one.

Our culture is defined and anchored by three pillars:

Energy: We bring passion, purpose, and urgency to our work. Edge: We take initiative, embrace growth, and step outside our comfort zone. Execution: We get things done smartly, decisively, and with real results.

If you're the kind of person who leads with initiative, thrives in a fast-paced environment, and is eager to create real impact, we want you on our team.

Clearance: Active Top Secret clearance with an ability to obtain SCI access and willingness to obtain CI Polygraph US Citizenship Required

*This job posting is for a potential upcoming opening, and we encourage interested candidates to apply for future consideration.

As a Software Engineer, you will...

- Design, deploy, and maintain cloud infrastructure as code — using Terraform and Ansible to provision AWS resources, and Helm to package/deploy applications onto Kubernetes , while managing configuration and hardening of both cloud and on-prem systems to meet security compliance standards.
- Build and support CI/CD pipelines and observability tooling — integrating COTS and FOSS tools into secure/cleared environments, and standing up monitoring/logging dashboards to track system health and performance across containerized workloads.
- Automate and troubleshoot Linux-based systems at scale — writing Python/Bash scripts to handle repetitive operational tasks, remediate security vulnerabilities, and streamline deployments, while applying DevSecOps practices to bake security into the infrastructure and release process rather than bolting it on afterward.

Software Engineer Qualifications...

- Security +, Cleared, Proficient in Linux, Chef, Hardening, Scripting, Automation, integration, AWS, Ansible Required Technical Skills
- Deploying cloud infrastructure using Terraform, Ansible, and Helm
- Experience with containerized environments: EKS, EKS Auto Mode, and Kubernetes
