• Tired of being treated like a company drone?

• We will immerse you in the latest technologies.
• We will develop and support your own personalized training program to continue your individual growth.

Job Description:

GliaCell is seeking a Full Stack Developer  on one of our subcontracts. This is a full-time position offering the opportunity to support a U.S. Government customer. The mission is to provide technical expertise that assists in sustaining critical mission-related software and systems to a large government contract.

• Let’s be honest upfront: our requirements are sometimes varied, occasionally vague, and frequently shifting. If a poorly defined feature request makes you want to hide under your desk, this might not be the role for you.
• But if it makes you want to walk over to the customer, ask, “What are you actually trying to do?”, and then build a prototype to prove it—you are exactly who we’re looking for.
• We aren't hiring you to know everything on day one.
• We are hiring you because you are hungry to learn, driven by new technology, and excited to build tools that provide mission cognizance and workflow automation for critical operations.
• You will be dropped into customer spaces, surrounded by smart people, and expected to figure things out (while heavily leaning on the senior engineers who are here to mentor you).

Responsibilities: 

• Embrace the Blur: Take vague or high-level requirements and turn them into actionable software. Instead of suffering in silence, you will actively visit customers and stakeholders to seek clarification and figure out what they really need.
• Prototype Fearlessly: Write code, put it in front of users, gather feedback, and iterate. You know that the first version is rarely the final version, and you don't get overly attached to your code.
• Bother the Seniors: Actively seek out our senior developers to review your code, explain complex architectural decisions, and absorb their hard-earned wisdom (they like it, we promise).
• Code with AI: Lean heavily into AI-assisted software development tools. We want you to use every modern advantage to multiply your output and learn new paradigms faster.
• Build Full-Stack Solutions: Write scripts, develop user interfaces, and build out the backend logic to integrate disparate data sources into cohesive, usable tools.

Key Requirements:

To be considered for this position you must have the following:

• Possess an active or rein-statable TS/SCI with Polygraph security clearance.  
• U.S. Citizenship.
• Professional/Education experience: 3 years & Bachelors of Science Degree, or 4 additional years in place of a BS Degree. 
• Works well independently as well as on a team. 
• Strong communication skills. 

Required Skills:

• Development Experience: You’ve been around the block just enough to know your way around Python and JavaScript, and you’ve built a few things that actually work.
• A Healthy Relationship with Ambiguity: You don't freeze when the path isn't perfectly paved. You are adaptable, driven by changing requirements, and love playing with new tech.
• Strong Communication: You are comfortable talking to humans, not just machines. You can ask good questions and actively listen to the answers.
• The Basics: Comfortable navigating Linux environments and using Git without accidentally deleting the main branch.

Desired Skills:

• Hands-on experience playing with agentic AI frameworks or building tools utilizing LLMs.
• Familiarity with containerization (like Docker) so you can run your prototypes smoothly.
• Any exposure to or interest in the SIGINT or CNO (Computer Network Operations) mission spaces.
