    • Containerized environments (Docker/K8s)
    • System to System and Data integration
  • Translate product vision into working, deployable systems quickly (Idea => Production)
  • Break down architecture into clear engineering tasks and milestones
  • Lead and mentor engineers through hands-on collaboration
  • Solid understanding of software engineering principles and best practices
  • Strong problem-solving mindset — able to move quickly and unblock teams

Bonus Points:

  • Experience with Zero Trust / Identity Systems
  • Familiarity with AI/ML Integration Workflows
  • Familiarity with Data Catalogs / Metadata systems
  • Experience with API gateways / Service Mesh
  • Experience with Real-time Data Systems

We are looking for a DevSecOps Engineer to own the infrastructure, environments, and delivery pipeline for EndPoint Zero — a real-time interoperability platform enabling instant data integration across any system, eliminates data integration pipelines, duplication and delays.
 
What you will do:
  • Implement and manage CI/CD pipelines for building, testing, and releasing the platform
  • Implement and manage infrastructure-as-code for repeatable environment deployment (Cloud and on-prem infrastructure environments)
  • Implement and manage Kubernetes deployment architecture and automation (Environment/Containers)
  • Collaborate & Implement security controls directly into the pipeline with Security Engineer to ensure Image hardening, security scanning, and compliance enforcement
  • Automate deployment workflows using GitOps principles

  • Secrets management and secure configuration
  • Edge/Air-gapped environments
  • Exposure to compliance frameworks (RMF, CIS, STIG, etc.)
  • Experience with encryption tools and processes
  • Experience with policy-as-code
 
Why this matters:
EndPoint Zero is only valuable if it can be securely deployed anywhere. It needs to be platform buildable, deployable and trusted. You are not just supporting the platform, you are defining how it runs, everywhere. Without this role, the platform cannot be distributed to customers with confidence, and the security posture of each release cannot be demonstrated.
Location: Orlando, FL (ONSITE)
We are looking for a Security Engineer to design, update and enforce security throughout the platform. Security needs to be backed in, not bolted on for EndPoint Zero — a real-time interoperability platform enabling instant data integration across any system, eliminates data integration pipelines, duplication and delays.

 

What you will do:
  • Design and continuously update the Zero Trust architecture across the platform and development environment
  • Implement identity, access, and service-to-service security
  • Define encryption and secrets management strategies
  • Conduct threat modeling and security testing
  • Own the ATO and security compliance efforts
 
What we are looking for:
  • 5+ years of security engineering experience with demonstrated experience designing security architecture for complex distributed systems — not just assessing existing systems
  • Strong security engineering background
  • Experience with distributed systems or cloud platforms
  • Deep understanding of identity, encryption, and secure design
  • Someone who thinks like an attacker—and builds like a defender
 
Bonus Points:
  • Experience with Service Meshes
  • Experience with Secrets Management
  • Experience with Classified or Regulated Environments
  • Experience with AWS Cloud Security
  • Experience with Container Security
  • Experience with File-Level / Client-Side Encryption
  • Experience with Cross-Domain Solutions
 
Why it matters:
EndPoint Zero’s security architecture is not generic — it is specific to the platform’s actual stack. The reason every service can trust every other service is workload identity and trust. The reason consumers can only access what they are authorized to access is enforcement. The reason sensitive source system queries cannot be pattern-analyzed by adversaries is obfuscation. The reason secrets never appear in environment variables or config files is by design. The Security Engineer designs, implements, and validates all of this — and produces the documentation that makes the platform’s security architecture auditable and ATO-ready.
Location: Orlando, Fl (ONSITE)
We are looking for an AI Engineer to design, build and refine automation capabilities within the platform. This position will focus on selecting appropriate connector during data calls, message conversions enabling interoperability, automate schema detection and onboard sources and consumers. Automation is a core component for EndPoint Zero — a real-time interoperability platform enabling instant data integration across any system, eliminates data integration pipelines, duplication and delays.

What you will do:
  • Use AI to automatically select how systems connect
  • Translate data between systems in real time
  • Detect and adapt to schema changes
  • Automate onboarding of new data sources and consumers
  • Enable AI-driven data transformations
 
What we are looking for:
  • 5+ years of software engineering experience with at least 2 years working directly with LLM-based systems or AI/ML engineering in production
  • Experience building with LLMs or AI systems
  • Strong engineering background (Python preferred or Java)
  • Someone who can combine AI + real systems
  • Understanding of data integration patterns
  • Familiarity with workflow orchestration systems for building durable, multi-step automated workflows
 
Bonus Points:
  • Experience with workflow orchestration
  • Experience with Data Pipelines and Integration Microservices
  • Experience with Service Mesh
 
Why it matters:
The feature that most directly enables EndPoint Zero’s core promise — that a new data source can be discovered, analyzed, connected, and made available to consumers in hours rather than months — is the Intelligence Plane built by the Automation/AI Engineer. Without AI-driven adapter development, every new connector requires manual engineering work. Without AI-driven connector selection, the Integration Decision Engine is a human bottleneck. Without AI message translation, semantic mismatches between source and consumer schemas require bespoke data engineering for every integration. The AI Engineer is the role that makes the platform’s velocity claims real, while ensuring that every AI-generated decision is observable, auditable, and overridable — critical properties for a platform operating in governed, mission-critical defense environments.
