  • Develop intuitive user experiences that enable operators to rapidly understand and act on complex logistics and operational data.
  • Collaborate closely with product designers, backend engineers, and military subject matter experts to translate mission requirements into high-quality software.
  • Build data-intensive interfaces, visualizations, and real-time user experiences that surface critical operational insights.

  • Contribute to code reviews, technical design discussions, and engineering standards that raise the quality and maintainability of the platform.
