Description Innovative Defense Technologies (IDT), a leading defense technology company, is seeking a Frontend Software Engineer to be part of our Missile Defense team and based in Mount Laurel, NJ. We are looking for a driven, experienced Frontend Software Engineer to become a key contributor to our software‑as‑a‑service hybrid cloud platform. Our platform enables government customers to collaboratively employ cutting‑edge capabilities to aid in the development and testing of mission‑critical tactical systems in ways that were not previously possible.
Our Tech Stack: User interfaces are written in TypeScript using React and Redux and packaged with Webpack. Backend services are typically written in Java with PostgreSQL. REST is our primary data transport protocol. Code is configuration‑controlled in Git. Build tooling includes NPM, Maven, and Gradle, coordinated by Jenkins in an automated pipeline. Continuous deployment is employed to orchestrate software on a Kubernetes cluster in multiple environments, including cloud, on secured air‑gapped networks, and on tactical platforms.
Clearance & Location Requirements:
All applicants must be able to obtain/maintain an active Secret U.S. Security Clearance.
This is an on‑site position requiring at least 4 days in office in Mount Laurel, NJ.
What You Will Do
Contribute to every stage of the frontend software development lifecycle: design, code, review, test, integration, debugging, deployment, and maintenance of user interfaces.
Evangelize and incorporate industry‑leading technologies into a frontend framework that can be used across the enterprise.
Successfully take tasks from beginning to end with little direct supervision, using strong organization, planning, and prioritization skills.
Demonstrate excellent teamwork and communication skills to collaborate with other teams and stakeholders in a dynamic and geographically distributed environment.

Work on-site at IDT’s facilities or travel to customer sites as needed.
Leverage AI to accelerate design‑to‑code, iteration speed, and feature delivery.
Who You Are (Required)
Specifically, applicants should meet all of the following:
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related technical discipline, or equivalent experience.
3+ years of practical engineering experience with TypeScript or JavaScript.
Experience with AI coding assistants (e.g., Copilot‑class tools, local LLMs, agentic workflows) as a primary means of code development.
Ability to travel up to 10% of the time as needed.
Experience building user interfaces with a modern component framework such as React, Angular, or Vue.
Experience using Storybook or other mock testing tooling.
Working knowledge of developing software on Linux operating systems, especially with hands‑on knowledge of networking fundamentals, protocols, and standards (TCP/IP, TLS, DNS).
What Makes You Stand Out
Strong knowledge of web protocols and standards (HTTP, gRPC, REST, OAuth) and their use in a web‑based application.
Experience with industry‑standard DevOps tooling, such as Maven or Gradle, Jenkins, and Git.
Experience with containerized software deployment and container orchestration platforms such as Kubernetes.
Experience with Figma/Figjam for mockups and wireframing.
Experience with the backend portion of full‑stack development, in the context of a modern microservice frameworks.
Experience designing and architecting software systems that meet requirements and maintaining living documentation of system designs.
Strong troubleshooting and debugging skills.
Desire to experiment with new AI tools, models, and UI generation techniques and convey learnings back to the team.
