Job description
Standard Job Description
Lockheed Martin’s Software Factory, a leader in DevSecOps-driven software engineering serving the aerospace and defense sectors. The Lockheed Martin Software Factory delivers customized solutions to meet the needs of our diverse customers — from commercial to classified — in order to scale across multiple programs.
Embedding (Development, Security and Operations) DevSecOps in every step of our software development keeps our clients at the cutting edge of cybersecurity. Secure coding is a fundamental principle behind our DevOps philosophy to make sure the best cyber security practices are considered at every step of development.
We are focused on architecting software for frequent delivery. Modular open systems architecture has been key to our systems for many years, and we are using new technologies such as container orchestration with Kubernetes to drive modularity through containerized microservice architecture all the way into the deployed system. Not only does this simplify test and deployment, but it also enables a hardware agnostic software solution that moves seamlessly between cloud providers and into embedded environments.

• Ensure compliance with security best practices and regulatory requirements throughout the software development lifecycle
Why Join Us

You will be helping us solve the world’s most difficult challenges supporting such wide-ranging domain areas such as aircraft flight command and control, air traffic control, health care, and homeland defense. We are a matrix engineering and technology organization so you will touch multiple programs over your career!
Do you want to be part of a company culture that encourages employees to build their career, leverage their knowledge while using cutting edge technology, and achieve challenging goals?
