Reflexive Concepts is seeking a skilled Software Engineer II (Jack of All Trades) to join our team!

Reflexive Concepts is looking for a versatile “Jack of All Trades” Software Engineer II to contribute on a small, high-impact software development team. If you enjoy taking ideas from concept to working prototype in fast, iterative cycles and you’re excited about learning new technologies as you go, this role is designed for you. We’re looking for a broadly skilled engineer who is comfortable working across the stack, jumping into unfamiliar problem spaces, and helping drive meaningful improvements in how the organization builds and operates software.

Responsibilities:

• Design, develop, maintain, and enhance complex and diverse software systems based on documented requirements
• Implement features end-to-end, spanning UI, services, data access, and integration points as needed
• Use modern software development and design methodologies to build and run simulations in development and test environments
• Provide input to software components of system design, including hardware/software trade-offs, software reuse strategies, and effective use of COTS/GOTS solutions versus new development
• Perform requirements analysis and synthesis from system level down to individual modules and services
• Build and evolve microservices and related APIs to support scalable, maintainable architectures
• Develop and consume RESTful services to integrate with other systems and clients
• Containerize applications and services (Podman/Docker) and deploy them using orchestration platforms such as Kubernetes
• Diagnose and troubleshoot complex issues across application, data, and infrastructure layers, including performance analysis and optimization
• Work independently when needed, demonstrating ownership, initiative, and strong follow-through
• Collaborate closely with teammates and stakeholders, communicating clearly and contributing to a positive, solution-oriented culture
• Stay open and adaptable to new tools, frameworks, and domains as project needs evolve

Requirements:

• Active TS/SCI with Full-Scope polygraph
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Math, or Physics — or an equivalent combination of education, training, and experience
• Minimum 14 years of relevant experience in software engineering, modernization, or solution architecture

Required Skills:

• Strong Java development skills
• Experience with modern JavaScript frameworks, particularly React
• Experience designing and consuming RESTful APIs
• Hands-on experience with containers (Podman and/or Docker)
• Experience with container orchestration such as Kubernetes
• Practical experience designing and implementing microservices-based systems

Familiarity with Two or More of the Following:

• Processing paradigms: machine learning, streaming data processing, batch processing
• Data stores: MongoDB, ArangoDB, Redis, PostgreSQL

Desired Skills:

• Experience developing and deploying applications in cloud environments (AWS) and/or on hyper-converged infrastructure (HCI)
• Comfort working across multiple layers of the stack and learning new technologies quickly
• Experience in agile or iterative development environments
