Java Software Engineer - Clearance Required

Are you interested in enabling end-users and data scientists access to the data they need when they need it? We're hiring engineers to expand our Data Lake offering built on top of AWS S3, DynamoDB, and Apache NiFi into an enterprise-wide Data Hub. This system currently ingests data from multiple sources, sanitizes and bundles that data, performs light-weight indexing, and disseminates the content to downstream systems in a streaming fashion. We will expand the capabilities to provide a secure, highly available, and scalable environment for both humans and machines to derive data insights and analytics at each step of the data pipeline, from raw through fully modeled and indexed forms. With your help, we will modernize the data lake with new access patterns and services to include AI/ML enrichment, ETL and modeling, search, and dissemination, all via an event-driven architecture. Around all of this we will need rock-solid APIs to support both programmatic and UI-driven access and management. This role requires an active TS/SCI with Poly.

We're looking for Software Engineers with knowledge of various data access patterns and underlying technology implementations. You should be knowledgeable on how to properly secure the data from unauthorized access at multiple data access points (e.g. search discovery rules, repository read rules, S3 bucket policies, etc). You should also know how to keep distributed data stores in-sync and how to detect state drift. Finally, you should have excellent knowledge of the AWS ecosystem to support both the existing infrastructure (built on EC2 with CloudFormation) and to help us build the next-generation data hub.
