This role involves designing, developing, and maintaining complex software systems that support Computer Network Operations (CNO). As a member of our team, you will work on mission-critical projects, providing innovative solutions to emerging cybersecurity challenges. Responsibilities: o Software Development: Design, develop, test, and maintain low-level software in a CNO environment. Work with assembly, C/C++, Python, or other relevant programming languages to create robust, high-performance software. Develop custom tools and scripts to automate tasks, analyze data, and improve system performance. Write clean, efficient, and well-documented code that meets security and performance standards. o Reverse Engineering: Analyze, decompile, and reverse-engineer software binaries to understand vulnerabilities and potential exploits. Develop proof-of-concept exploits to demonstrate potential vulnerabilities in targeted systems. o Vulnerability Research Identify, analyze, and document software vulnerabilities. Collaborate with team members to develop mitigations and workarounds for discovered vulnerabilities. o System and Network Analysis: Conduct network traffic analysis to identify anomalies, potential threats, and areas for improvement. Develop and implement solutions for network security, ensuring systems are protected against potential intrusions. o Collaboration: Work closely with cross-functional teams, including system engineers, analysts, and other developers, to ensure seamless integration of software components. Participate in design and code reviews to ensure adherence to best practices and standards. o Documentation: Prepare detailed technical documentation and reports, including user guides, system design documents, and vulnerability assessments. Ensure all documentation is clear, concise, and accessible to team members and stakeholders. Required Qualifications: o Clearance: Active TS/SCI with Full Scope Polygraph is mandatory.Education: Bachelor degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical field. Relevant experience may substitute for education.ExperienceJunior Level: 1-3 years of experience in CNO development, software engineering, Reverse engineering, or a related field.Mid-Level: 3-7 years of experience in CNO development, software engineering, Reverse engineering, or a related field.Senior Level: 7+ years of experience in CNO development, software engineering, Reverse engineering, or a related field.Technical SkillsProficiency in one or more programming languages such as C, C++, Python, or Assembly.Experience with reverse engineering tools (e.g., IDA Pro, Ghidra).Strong understanding of computer networks, operating systems (Windows, Linux), and network protocols (TCP/IP, UDP, etc.).Familiarity with software development methodologies and version control systems (e.g., Git).Experience with debugging and profiling tools. Soft Skills:Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities.Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal.Ability to work independently and as part of a team.Strong attention to detail and a commitment to delivering high-quality work. Preferred Qualifications: Certifications: Relevant industry certifications such as OSCP, CEH, CISSP, or GPEN.Experience: Prior experience in a DoD or intelligence community environment is highly desirable.Knowledge: Familiarity with offensive security techniques and frameworks, such as Metasploit or Cobalt Strike.","company":"Elucidation Concepts","rawCompany":"elucidation concepts","city":"Annapolis Junction","state":"MD","isRemote":false,"isActive":false,"createdAt":"2026-04-12T16:20:11.740Z","occupations":[{"code":"15-1252.00","title":"Software Developers","slug":"software-developers"},{"code":"15-1299.08","title":"Computer Systems Engineers/Architects","slug":"computer-systems-engineers-architects"},{"code":"15-1251.00","title":"Computer Programmers","slug":"computer-programmers"}],"industries":[{"code":"541512","title":"Computer Systems Design Services","slug":"computer-systems-design-services"},{"code":"541519","title":"Other Computer Related Services","slug":"other-computer-related-services"},{"code":"541511","title":"Custom Computer Programming Services","slug":"custom-computer-programming-services"}],"jobPosting":{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"JobPosting","title":"CNO Developer / Computer Scientist / Reverse Engineer with Security Clearance","description":"Job Level: Junior, Mid, or Senior We are seeking a highly motivated and skilled CNO Developer / Computer Scientist / Reverse Engineer to join our team.
