Senior Software Engineer, Workflow & Data Systems

Join a team building software that helps analysts make sense of complex mission activity in real time. These capabilities support content and traffic triage, language analysis, workflow collaboration, transcription and sourcing services, and the capture of workflow history across analysts, teams, and organizations. The work is centered on context, helping users see what has happened, what is happening now, and what matters most across workflow and content records. This is a strong fit for an engineer who likes building software with a clear mission, direct user impact, and real operational value. There are also two openings on this team, which speaks to the momentum and growth behind the work. This role puts you close to the mission and close to the user. You will help build and enhance systems that manage workflow state, preserve historical awareness, and give analysts better visibility across content, activity, and decision points over time. The work sits at the intersection of data, workflow, and mission awareness, which means you are building software with a clear job to do and a direct line to real analyst outcomes. At Intelliforce, your work is visible and your ideas carry weight. Because we support prime programs, our teams stay close to meaningful mission work with strong momentum. Because we are a small business, leadership is accessible, contributions get noticed, and decisions move faster. Add in strong benefits, long-term contract stability, a people-first culture, and a hiring process that moves with purpose, and this becomes more than another software role. It is real engineering tied to real mission use. Here’s What Your Day-to-Day Might Include

  • Design, develop, and enhance software supporting analyst workflows, contextual state tracking, and mission visibility.
