You’ll integrate our platform with government data and systems under real constraints, onboard messy real-world data, build the workflows a program runs on, and support deployments in customer environments, including on-site when a program needs it.\nThe work reaches users quickly. What you ship often gets into the hands of the people making readiness decisions within weeks, and what you learn in the field feeds back into the product.\nResponsibilities\nIntegrate our platform with government data and systems under real constraints, and onboard the imperfect data programs actually run on\n\nConfigure the product against program requirements and support releases, including in government cloud environments\n\nBuild custom workflows that drive adoption, usage, and engagement with key customers\n\nTriage and resolve customer-reported issues in their environments rather than passing them along\n\nOwn a component or program workstream end to end, returning working systems from a requirements document rather than closed tickets\n\nSpend time on-site with customers, become their technical counterpart, and bring what you learn back to the product team\n\nWrite, test, and review code to a standard the rest of the team can build on\n\nDesired Skills\n2+ years of professional software engineering experience, or equivalent demonstrated ability\n\nProficiency in Python and/or TypeScript, with SQL and data-heavy work: ETL, integration, and wrangling imperfect real-world data\n\nClear communication with technical and non-technical stakeholders, and comfort working directly with customers\n\nBias toward ownership: handed a requirements document, you return a working system\n\nWillingness to travel to customer sites (military installations across the U.S.)\n\nU.S. citizenship and eligibility to obtain a U.S. government security clearance\n\nBonus Points\nMilitary service or experience supporting defense programs. Veterans are strongly encouraged to apply\n\nFamiliarity with service supply, maintenance, and readiness data systems\n\nExperience deploying software in government cloud or other constrained or air-gapped environments\n\nAn active security clearance\n\nYou don’t need to check every box. If the mission and the work resonate, we'd love to hear from you!\nWhat Success Looks Like in Year One\nCustomer decisions that used to run on spreadsheets and tribal knowledge are running on data you helped instrument.\nThe product team is shipping features that came directly from patterns you spotted on the ground.\nManual reporting that used to eat days of analyst time is automated and trusted.\nWhen senior leadership at a customer command wants to know how their logistics operation is really performing, the answer comes from a system you helped build.","description_format":"text","description_chars":2828,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":2,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Logistics"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-16T13:30:04Z"}],"liveness":{"score":65,"band":"ok","label":"Likely open","p_open":1,"p_active":0.721,"p_room":0.9,"age_days":10,"expected_fill_days":15,"reasons":["conf:4","velocity","win:mid","comp:junior"],"computed_at":"2026-09-26T05:45:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/tagup-forward-deployed-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/tagup-forward-deployed-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-09-27T02:00:11Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","usage":{"tier":"crawler","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":1794,"day_limit":5000,"remaining_today":3206,"minute_limit":60,"resets_at":"2026-09-28T00:00:00Z"}}}
