                             Quick Position Facts!
Location: San Diego, CA at our wonderful G2 Ops office and customer site.
Work Setting: In person, some remote opportunity, and/or flexible working hours, not a fully remote position.
Salary Range: $100,000+ plus comprehensive benefits package.
Years of Industry Experience: 3+ years of relevant experience.
Security Clearance Requirement: Must be able to obtain and maintain Active DoD Secret Clearance.
Where you make an impact: For this opportunity, we are seeking a highly motivated, team-oriented Software Engineer to support development of custom tooling and automation that integrates with Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) environments. This role will focus on developing and maintaining Cameo Systems Modeler (CSM) plugins, backend services, and LLM-enabled workflows that support system modeling, verification traceability, and certification planning activities for complex defense systems.

The ideal candidate is a strong Java developer with experience building integration tools, parsing structured and unstructured data, and translating system-level engineering workflows into robust, maintainable software solutions. This role works closely with Systems Engineers to implement automation that enhances model usability, reporting, and change-impact analysis.
What does this mean to you? In this role, you will be responsible for:

• Cameo Systems Modeler (CSM) Plugin Development
• Designing, developing, and maintaining Java-based plugins for Cameo Systems Modeler to support engineering workflows and traceability automation.
• Implementing backend services and integrations that extract, transform, and structure model data for reporting and analysis.
• Developing and maintaining data parsers that ingest structured and semi-structured inputs (e.g., Excel, CSV, JSON) and map them into well-defined objects or databases.
• Translating system-level requirements, architecture constructs, and traceability needs into scalable and maintainable software capabilities.
• Troubleshooting and resolving data integration issues, including schema mismatches, synchronization errors, and data quality inconsistencies between tools.
• Refactoring and enhancing existing applications to improve performance, maintainability, and usability while preserving required functionality.
• Supporting configuration management and version control practices to ensure reliable deployment and maintainability of plugins and integration tools.

        LLM & Advanced Data Integration Development

• Implementing integrations with Large Language Model (LLM) services (e.g., OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, or similar) within backend services and applications.
• Developing workflows that ingest and process unstructured documents (e.g., PDFs), including text extraction, chunking, embedding generation, and structured output mapping.
• Designing and implementing API-based integrations to ingest, normalize, and manage both structured and unstructured data sources.
• Supporting Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) architectures, including integration with vector databases for document-based querying and feature mapping.
• Ensuring traceability and transparency in LLM-assisted outputs to support engineering review and validation.

What makes someone choose one company over another? Pay, benefits, training, work satisfaction, culture? At G2 Ops, you can have it all.  We offer competitive pay and benefits, but what truly sets us apart is our collaborative culture.  Here, you’re never just a payroll number or a cog in the machine; you’re part of a team that ensures every member is set up for success. Our team approach allows for each member to not only provide value with their expertise but also gives them the opportunity to cross-train in other areas in which they have an interest.
Let's talk salary. The annual salary range for this position is $100,000+ based on your qualifications. We also offer a competitive benefits package and have fringe benefits offered throughout the year. The benefits package value ranges from $13,000 for a single employee, and up to $28,000 for an employee and their family. With company standard annual performance reviews in place, plus excellence recognition awards, your performance will be rewarded and appreciated, we promise!
Embracing AI. At G2 Ops, we don’t just talk about AI—we use it. Our recent company-wide AI usage survey shows over 75% of our team is actively engaging with AI tools, making us a leader in real-world adoption among engineering, cybersecurity, and defense firms. Led by our Director of Operations for Production, the initiative has already identified clear, actionable ways for every role—technical and operational—to harness AI effectively. From engineering automation to proposal generation and risk modeling, G2 Ops is embedding AI directly into how we work.
We’re now launching the next phase: AI playbooks, secure tooling aligned with government security protocols, and real-time support for hands-on use across all departments. At G2 Ops, you'll not only work with cutting-edge technology, you'll help define how it's applied in real mission environments.
Want to work where AI isn’t hype, but habit? Join us.

So, you want to work from home? Let's be honest, remote work is not always all it's cut out to be. At G2 Ops, we offer a flexible schedule to meet the needs of our team members and customers. Due to the classification level of the projects we support as a Defense Contractor, we cannot offer fully remote opportunities at this time. 
You will have a shiny desk at our G2 Ops office, plus the opportunity to work at a military site directly with our customers (this is a good thing!). We do allow teleworking with prior approval, but supporting the DoD, you will be required to work at a government site as well.

We've worked hard to create a great culture where our team gets to come to a collaborative, exciting work environment, and we want you to join the fun!
Lastly, as we are working for the DoD, we are beholden to some requirements. The ideal candidate would already possess an active DoD Secret level clearance. 
Quick Reminder, we are seeking a full-time team member; the continuation of outside employment shall not constitute a conflict with the Company’s interest, including performing work for a customer or competitor.
Congratulations, you made it all the way to the end of this job posting! We look forward to learning more about you!
