Software Engineer – Distributed Web Applications & Cloud

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. 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 seasoned Software Engineer to take on a central role in the development and maintenance of large-scale, distributed web applications. You'll be working on systems that matter — architecting and building scalable, high-performance software in a cloud-native environment while operating in the offensive cyber space.

This is a high-impact engineering role where you'll design microservices, build robust CI/CD pipelines, and leverage Infrastructure-as-Code to keep cloud deployments running reliably and securely. But it doesn't stop there — you'll also work directly alongside security researchers, applying your engineering rigor to offensive cyber and vulnerability research challenges. If you've always wanted to use your software development skills in a mission environment where the stakes are real, this is that opportunity.

In this role, you will:

• Develop and maintain large-scale, distributed web applications using Node.js, TypeScript, and Python
• Architect scalable microservices and backend systems that support high-performance data processing and communication
