Top Tech Jobs & Startup Jobs in Denver & Boulder, CO

Lead research, develop, and optimize numerical algorithms for multi-modal remote sensing. Implement high-performance Python and C++ pipelines, validate algorithm performance, integrate into operational systems, mentor engineers, and ensure compliance with DoD mission and software standards.

Develop, prototype, and productionize high-performance numerical algorithms for multi-modal remote sensing (EO/IR, SAR, RF). Implement and optimize signal and image processing pipelines in Python and C++, validate performance against real data, support integration into DoD systems, mentor team members, and contribute to proposals and technical roadmaps while ensuring mission assurance and software quality.

Develop, optimize, and integrate high-throughput C++ algorithms and multi-object tracking software for counter-UAS and remote sensing systems. Work in an Agile small-team environment to prototype, test, and deliver low-latency processing solutions within government frameworks.

Design, build, and maintain a developer platform and CI/CD pipelines (GitLab CI) to enable secure automated deployments using Kubernetes and Helm. Integrate pipelines with artifact management, testing, code quality, and security scanning. Monitor, troubleshoot, and operate critical infrastructure like CI/CD systems and artifact repositories, and document infrastructure changes for stakeholders.

Support installation, configuration, security, and operation of RHEL and Windows servers and workstations. Manage patching, hardening, backups, virtualization (VMware), storage and networking. Apply DISA STIGs/SCAP for compliance, monitor performance, troubleshoot hardware/software, document procedures, collaborate with security and operations teams, and participate in automation and modernization efforts.

Design, implement, and optimize high-performance C++ software to process OPIR and remote-sensor data for missile warning, detection, and tracking. Improve performance, scalability, and reliability within a large Linux codebase, participate in design and code reviews, support integration and testing, and collaborate with algorithm and systems teams in an Agile environment. Position is full-time, on-site in Boulder, CO and requires U.S. citizenship and the ability to obtain a DoD security clearance.

Provide onsite, customer-facing support and optimization for missile defense software processing OPIR and other remote-sensor data. Monitor system health, respond to incidents, perform root-cause analysis, implement reliability improvements, support upgrades and lifecycle activities, and assist integration, testing, and documentation in Linux environments.

Design, implement, and maintain high-performance Rust software for missile-warning and sensor-data processing. Own complex features end-to-end, contribute to system architecture, optimize for performance and throughput, collaborate with cross-functional teams, support testing/integration/deployment, and follow secure, maintainable coding and Agile practices.

Lead and mentor an infrastructure team to design, deploy, and maintain VMware- and Linux-based private cloud platforms, networks (LAN/WAN), and on‑prem compute. Troubleshoot escalated issues, automate tasks, implement security and disaster recovery, maintain ATO documentation, and support cloud-native microservices and DevOps processes across distributed locations.

Design, develop, and sustain Python-based software for distributed, containerized microservices and real-time data pipelines. Collaborate with scientific users, participate in Agile practices, ensure reliability and testing (unit/integration/system), mentor junior engineers, and contribute to deployment, documentation, and risk-reduction strategies in a mission-focused DoD environment.
