Position Overview

The Developer Experience Engineer position is responsible for designing, implementing, and optimizing solutions to enhance the end-to-end development lifecycle for offensive cyberspace operations and computer network operations developers. This role involves working alongside OCO and CNO developers to understand their needs and assisting as they onboard and orient to new environments, including helping re-establish development, tests, and pipelines. You will lead a team of engineers building and maintaining this environment, and are expected to take ownership of all aspects of promoting the developer experience within the environment.

As a Developer Experience Engineer, you will play a critical role in empowering cyber mission developers with state-of-the-art tools and infrastructure to drive mission success. This is an opportunity to work at the intersection of cutting-edge technology, cybersecurity, and national security, to shape the future of OCO and CNO development. While the offensive cyberspace operations context is learnable, the DevEx mindset is essential.

  • Experience providing input on capability decisions through user research, customer development, and iterative feedback loops
  • Experience working in a balanced team with other UX designers to build, measure, and learn
