About the role

Software engineer role within the Lattice for Cyber team to build core capabilities, experiences, and primitives for offensive cyber programs, solving networking, autonomy, systems integration, robotics, and related challenges with a pragmatic, scalable approach.

Responsibilities

  • Build highly-available and scalable services, data models, and APIs that power offensive cyber products (e.g., command and control frameworks, autonomous cyber behavior trees, SIGINT analysis tools, data exfiltration pipelines).
  • Integrate best-of-breed Cyber tools and products into Lattice via custom SDKs or white-glove integrations.
  • Work directly with program teams and customers as they build real missions on your products.
  • Contribute to technical leadership, design clarity, and long-term maintainability across a growing software stack.

  • Incorporate AI/LLM-enabled workflow features to improve analyst/operator effectiveness without compromising reliability.
  • Build SDKs and integrations to allow vendors to incorporate their software and tools into the Lattice Cyber platform.
  • Contribute back to the Lattice software platform core to extend value across the company.

Qualifications

  • 10+ years of experience designing, building, and operating production software.
  • Strong software engineering experience in one or more of C, C++, Python, Go, Rust, or modern TypeScript/React application development.
  • Ability to debug across the full stack (logs, networking, interfaces, configuration, hardware/software boundaries).
  • Practical experience with Linux and containerized deployment.
  • Comfort collaborating with cross-functional engineering teams and translating ambiguous requirements into clean software interfaces.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills for technical reviews and architecture discussions.
  • Based in, or willing to relocate to, the Washington, DC or Orange County, CA metro areas.
