About this role

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 have an undergraduate or graduate degree in computer science or

related field

  • You are a US citizen or Green Card holder willing and able to be cleared to

the Top Secret level.

Required Technical Expertise:

  • Strong Proficiency in Python
  • JavaScript and/or TypeScript
  • Experience developing applications for Google Cloud Platform (GCP) (Cloud

Run, Pub/Sub, Cloud Run Jobs, Cloud Storage, or comparable

managed/serverless services).

  • Broad understanding of AI/ML technologies with the ability to identify and

implement diverse, architecturally sound solutions beyond basic LLM

prompting or experience integrating LLMs and AI capabilities into production

software, including structured outputs, tool/function calling,

retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), agentic workflows, evaluation,

prompt/version management, and appropriate handling of model failure

modes.

  • Experience developing with agentic coding tools
  • Experience developing unit, integration, and end-to-end tests.
  • Experience developing and consuming RESTful APIs
  • Experience developing with relational databases and data warehouses
  • Deep understanding of OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities and practical

mitigations, including authentication and authorization, injection, XSS, CSRF,

SSRF, secrets management, dependency vulnerabilities, input validation, and

secure API design.

  • Experience debugging failures in a running production system using logs,

traces, application monitoring and metrics

Additional Preferences:

  • Exposure to networking and security concepts and technologies
  • Experience with containerization (e.g., Docker) and container orchestration

with Kubernetes
