The Opportunity:
As a Software Developer and Help Desk Specialist supporting defense missions, you know that effective systems require secure engineering, disciplined development practices, and clear understanding of how technology enables enterprise-level operations. You think beyond individual tasks, anticipating how your work strengthens applications relied on across the Department of Defense (DoD). In this role, you’ll help modernize, sustain, and enhance software tools used for education, training, doctrine support, and readiness-related workflows.
Supporting the Joint Staff, you will help modernize, maintain, and improve critical applications that adhere to the Joint Doctrine, Education, and Training Electronic Information System (JDEIS), including the Joint Electronic Library (JEL), Joint Doctrine Development Tool (JDDT) and related interfaces. You’ll help ensure these applications perform securely and reliably across NIPRNet, SIPRNet, and other approved DoD environments while aligning development practices with Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA), Risk Management Framework (RMF) requirements, and modern DoD software standards.
In this role, you will translate requirements into functional software, design and refine codebases, execute validation testing, and support updates that ensure mission tools remain secure, responsive, and aligned with evolving Joint Staff needs. Your work will help advance joint doctrine development, professional military education, and readiness reporting solutions that directly support the warfighter.
