Junior Software Engineer

About the role

Start your software career with a company whose entire business is launching them. SkillStorm builds technology talent for Fortune 100 enterprises and U.S. government agencies. You'll spend 12 weeks in paid, hands-on training working real, team-based projects — then deploy directly to an enterprise or government client, effective day one. This isn't a course you pay for. It's a paid role with a clear path from "qualified" to "deployed professional." We're hiring people early in their technical careers — including recent graduates, career changers with a technical foundation, and transitioning service members and veterans — who have the fundamentals and the drive, and want a structured path into enterprise software work.

• Clear written and verbal communication with teammates and stakeholders
• Ability to obtain a U.S. government security clearance

Responsibilities

• Build and enhance applications using the languages, frameworks, and tools your client runs
