ATAK / Kotlin Developer

Transform technology into opportunity as an ATAK / Kotlin Developer at GDIT. Shape what’s next for mission-critical government projects while shaping what’s next for your engineering career.

MEANINGFUL WORK AND PERSONAL IMPACT

As an ATAK / Kotlin Developer, the work you’ll do at GDIT will be impactful to the mission of USASOC. You will play a crucial role in designing, implementing, and maintaining mission-critical Android applications.

  • Implement TakUI-based UIs using the declarative DSL (-Row, -Column, -Button, -Text, etc.) for mission control interfaces and operator workflows.
  • Collaborate with AI / autonomy engineers to display mission state data (swarm tracking, flight path, etc.) on the ATAK map overlay.
  • Contribute to UI / UX design for operational efficiency under field constraints (low light, glove mode, DDIL conditions).
  • Write robust, modular, and testable Kotlin code aligned with ATAK’s plugin packaging requirements and a DevSecOps pipeline.
  • Participate in mission rehearsals and live exercises to gather feedback and refine plugin functionality.
  • Ability to collaborate with end-users, testers, and operators to iterate on plugin design and usability.

WHAT YOU’LL NEED TO SUCCEED

Bring your engineering expertise along with a drive for innovation to GDIT. The ATAK / Kotlin Developer must have :

  • Education : Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science is preferred
  • Experience : 3+ years of related experience
  • Proficient in Kotlin and Java (for interoperability with legacy ATAK SDK code).
  • Demonstrated experience building and debugging ATAK plugins using the TAK SDK (v4.6+).
  • Experience with TAK Data Packages, MapItems, and Cursor-on-Target (CoT) message handling.
  • Knowledge of protobuf serialization, JSON handling, and network comms within ATAK contexts.
  • Ability to implement custom overlays and symbology for tactical data visualization.
  • Experience integrating with PostgreSQL, MQTT, or ZeroMQ messaging layers preferred.
  • Familiarity with ATAK build processes (Gradle, Maven, or TAK repo builds).
  • Experience using Android Studio / IntelliJ, Git, and Docker for plugin development and testing.
  • Prior work experience with military (SOF) / government ATAK integrations.
  • Strong understanding of DevSecOps workflows, CI / CD pipelines, and secure Android build practices for TAK deployments.
  • Security clearance level : An active Secret clearance is required with ability to obtain TS / SCI security clearance
  • US citizenship required
  • GDIT IS YOUR PLACE

    At GDIT, the mission is our purpose, and our people are at the center of everything we do.

  • Growth : AI-powered career tool that identifies career steps and learning opportunities
  • Support : An internal mobility team focused on helping you achieve your career goals
  • Rewards : Comprehensive benefits and wellness packages, K with company match, and competitive pay and paid time off
  • Flexibility : This position is Hybrid, on-site at Fort Bragg, Fayetteville, NC
  • Community : Award-winning culture of innovation and a military-friendly workplace
  • OWN YOUR OPPORTUNITY

    Explore a career in software development at GDIT and you’ll find endless opportunities to grow alongside colleagues who share your dedication to advancing innovation.
