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. We deliver new and innovative intelligence solutions to our customers at the very forefront of our country's national security missions. And we do it every single day. Our work matters, and so will you.

We ask that every new hire be able to:

• Contribute meaningful thought leadership — if not right away, over time
• Interact with our customers and earn their confidence in your abilities
• Be detailed, even if that means taking a little more time to get it right
• Contribute their ideas and ideals to improve all aspects of our company
• Allow us to invest in their education so we both grow together
• Know and live our core values every single day

About this Role

We're looking for a skilled reverse engineer and CNO software engineer to work on high-impact, mission-centric projects at Ft. Meade, Maryland. In this role, you'll design, develop, prototype, modify, and integrate software solutions that directly support intelligence operations — both in quick-reaction scenarios and across longer development lifecycles.

You'll work closely with analysts, operators, data scientists, and fellow software engineers to deliver tactical mission support. That means rolling up your sleeves on everything from augmenting existing toolsets to building full end-to-end capabilities that operate within real-world mission constraints. You'll coordinate with cross-functional teams to derive and scope requirements, build prototypes that demonstrate your understanding of mission needs, provide technical consulting across a range of software products and technologies, and take part in peer code reviews to keep quality high and defects low.

This is a role for someone who thrives at the intersection of deep technical skill and mission purpose — someone who wants their code to matter.
