Software Engineer - AI-Assisted Developer Tooling An active TS//SCI clearance with polygraph is required for this role Hey!
Bitwise is a leading provider of mission-focused intelligence solutions that advance national security for the Intelligence Community and Department of Defense. We're a small and growing company, so you can expect to hop in on the ground floor with us and be a consequential member of the team. You'll be more than a contract performer for us - you'll also be asked for ideas to improve our company and improve your career, and you'll contribute to our team culture. We value growth and community above almost all else, so we gather regularly for game nights, happy hours, tech talks, and plenty more. We think you'll like it here!
Remember, Bitwise is not a cult.
What We Look For
Bitwise hires talented engineers who are driven by purpose and who value a culture of technical excellence, growth, and overall wellness.

You'll be working at an exciting intersection of software engineering and applied AI, integrating large language models and agent-based systems into real development workflows - not just experimenting in a sandbox, but shipping tools that people actually use and that make a measurable difference. You'll collaborate closely with developers and customers to gather feedback, iterate quickly, and document what's working. If you love making engineers more effective and you're energized by the fast-moving world of AI-assisted development, this is a role built for you.
This position is located in Laurel, MD.

- Strong software engineering fundamentals in one or more modern programming languages
- Hands-on experience with IDEs, developer tools, or build and test systems
- Demonstrated experience with AI- or LLM-powered developer tools, including chat-based interfaces or automated coding agents
- Ability to prototype, evaluate, and iteratively refine experimental tooling
- Solid understanding of software development workflows and best practices
- Active TS//SCI clearance with polygraph

- All 11 federal holidays, paid!
- Up to 2 snow days, paid!
- We'll quadruple (4x!) the first 6% you contribute to your 401(k), giving you up to a 24% company match. Contributing less than 6%? Unclaimed matches come right back to you as extra income, giving you a guaranteed 24% that goes to your retirement, to your paycheck, or both. C'mon now!
- 100% employer-paid medical, dental, vision, life, and disability insurances. That's a lot. Already covered on health insurance? No problem - we'll trade you this benefit for a boost to your salary instead.
- $5,250 annual education assistance for training, certifications, tuition, and even student loan repayments.
- Spot bonuses for obtained certifications, customer recognition, and just about anything else that makes us go "Hot damn!". We hope to say that many times about you.
