• Planning, executing, and coordinating Agile software development tasks.
• Designing, building, documenting, testing, and debugging software solutions that address critical mission needs through logical and mathematical methods.
• Implementing established standards, processes, procedures, and tools across the full development life cycle.
• Leveraging knowledge of computer hardware/software, mission/business application domains, information processing techniques, and user input to design and develop software.
• Identifying and correcting program errors, creating and maintaining development documentation, and analyzing system functionality to clarify program intent, output requirements, data inputs, techniques, and controls.
• Defining, applying, and validating compliance with software standards.
Responsibilities:
Design, build, and operate CI/CD pipelines for containerized workloads across dev/test/prod, and implement core Kubernetes platform capabilities (RBAC, networking, ingress, secrets, autoscaling, and upgrades).

For positions requiring a federal security clearance, your clearance level must be clearly identified on your resume.
North Point Technology, a Woman Owned Small-Business based in Reston, VA, was formed in 2005 with the belief that small business plays an integral role in our government's defense mission.
The overarching dilemma facing many of the most essential federal mission systems is the inability to assemble and retain teams of highly skilled and driven technical engineers. Traditionally, the scope of these programs demand structure and stability at a scale that is only possible from one of a few large proven organizations. These organizations typically come with significant overhead. This overhead, along with their size, can restrict these organizations from recruiting and retaining the most capable members of the workforce.
North Point Technology takes aim at solving this problem by recruiting highly skilled and motivated technologists, while retaining them by providing excellent compensation and benefits. We foster a culture of innovation by hiring like-minded engineers who have passion for their work and the mission. With our efficient business model, we can attract and retain top talent to facilitate critical mission needs.
