About Tiberius Aerospace
Tiberius Aerospace is building the next generation of weapons systems for the United States, United Kingdom, and their allies.
We believe the future of defense will be built differently: through faster iteration, tighter integration of software and hardware, and a modern approach to how mission-critical systems are designed, tested, deployed, and continuously improved.
Our systems do not stop evolving once they leave the factory. Tiberius is building technologies—and a defense ecosystem—that connect engineers, operators, manufacturers, governments, and allies into a continuously learning system.
To serve our nations with Strength, Honor, and Purpose — forging the systems that defend freedom and shape the future of defense.
The Role
Tiberius is seeking a Senior Software Engineer to build and operate the internal systems that keep the company moving.
This is a multidimensional engineering role for someone comfortable moving across software development, platform engineering, infrastructure, developer tooling, and corporate technology. You will build internal tools, automate operational workflows, improve developer productivity, and solve the technical problems standing between the team and the mission.
You will report directly to the CTO and operate in small, high-trust teams with significant autonomy. We value engineers who finish what they start, take pride in what they ship, and are willing to take on the work that matters—whether it is a production service, Kubernetes cluster, CI pipeline, identity system, endpoint issue, or internal tool that removes friction for the entire company.
This is a fully remote U.S. role. The successful candidate may remain remote on an ongoing basis, with occasional travel for company meetings, planning sessions, technical work, or other business needs.
