OverviewWeb Application Engineer - Innovate the Future of Defense Technology

Axient is on the lookout for a passionate Web Application Engineer who thrives on innovation, collaboration, and building powerful tools that make a difference. If you're excited about shaping the future of military capabilities across air, sea, land, space, and cyber domains - this opportunity is for you.

Join a dynamic, mission-focused team developing next-generation digital toolkits that help represent innovative and future warfighting capabilities in high-impact DoD wargames. You'll work closely with military operators and acquirers, building seamless bridges between concept and capability, and enabling smarter, faster decisions in complex environments.

Why This Role is Exciting:

  • Impact at Scale: Contribute to real-world DoD projects that shape how the military thinks, plans, and operates in future conflicts.
  • Cross-Domain Innovation: Work across all domains - air, sea, land, space, and cyber - integrating cutting-edge technology and operational energy strategies.
  • Collaboration with Purpose: Partner with military leaders, technologists, and engineers to solve real-world challenges.
  • Balance of Focus and Flexibility: Enjoy a mix of remote work, on-site engagement at strategic locations (like the Pentagon), and travel opportunities that bring your work to life.
Preferred Skills & Experience:

We encourage you to apply if you have experience or strengths in any of the following areas:
  • Strong object-oriented programming and software design fundamentals
  • Proficiency in JavaScript, Python, and RESTful web service development
  • Expertise with React, MongoDB, and building/consuming REST APIs
  • Background in front-end development, with experience integrating with back-end services (JSON:API spec)
  • Experience with C++, AFSIM, or SysML is a plus
  • Active-duty military experience and understanding of operational concepts is highly valued
  • Strong desire to write great code, lead by example, and mentor junior developers
What You'll Be Doing:
  • Develop powerful, user-friendly software tools to support military planning and innovation
  • Build and optimize front-end components that clearly communicate data and insights to military decision-makers
  • Collaborate with stakeholders, designers, and other engineers to refine requirements and execute on the vision
  • Implement and integrate classified capabilities as needed, working on secure systems with mission relevance
  • Participate in wargames, capturing user feedback and using it to improve product functionality and user experience
  • Write clean, well-documented code and develop technical documentation to support future enhancements
  • Lead by example: estimate, prioritize, and take ownership of tasks while helping guide and mentor junior engineers
Supporting the Bigger Picture

As part of Axient's broader mission, you'll also contribute to operational energy research and analysis efforts, particularly within the Air and Space domains, supporting initiatives led by the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD). You'll help deliver software solutions, research briefings, and innovation roadmaps that make a tangible impact on future force structures and operational effectiveness.

Basic Qualifications:
  • 5-10 years of experience in software development
  • 5+ years of front-end development using modern JavaScript frameworks (React preferred)
  • BS/BA in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field required
  • Master's degree (MS/MA) preferred
  • Experience supporting DoD projects highly preferred
Security Clearance Requirements:
  • Must be eligible for a Security clearance (US Citizen Required)
Work Location & Travel:
  • Primary site: Pentagon, Washington, D.C.
  • Alternate site: Melbourne, FL (as needed)
  • Remote work authorized with customer approval
  • Travel: Approx. 10-20%, including some overseas travel and site visits
Physical Requirements:
  • Must be able to travel and conduct site visits in remote or industrial locations
  • Ability to navigate stairs, open gantries, and rugged surfaces
  • Occasional lifting of equipment, display materials, or tech mock-ups
  • Valid passport required for overseas travel
Be Part of Something Bigger

At Axient, you won't just build software - you'll help shape the future of defense. If you're ready to work at the cutting edge of military innovation and make a difference with your code, apply now and let's build something incredible together.
