ABOUT VES, LLC

We are a small business headquartered out of Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD with offices in Baltimore, MD, and APG, MD. Established in 2014, our core competencies are the development of custom government off the Shelf (GOTS) infrastructure solutions, integrating mission command systems, and prototyping emerging technologies for use in the Army tactical architecture. We are a company built entirely of engineers, focused completely on solving the DoD's hardest software systems integration challenges.

Many software government contractors only hire to fill a slot and then release the person with the contract time is up. We truly strive to be more of a close-knit group, hiring people for their talent and making sure they want to stay for the long haul. We offer highly competitive pay, generous benefits, and a friendly work culture.

A DAY IN THE LIFE OF A SOFTWARE ENGINEER

As a Software Engineer, you are essential to keeping up with our work as we continue to grow. You write and develop code, debug for performance, and maintain and improve existing solutions. With attention to detail, you create technical prototypes for emerging technologies. As part of the maintenance and improvement of existing software, you proactively recommend improvements as appropriate.

You think critically and contribute to designing novel solutions to complex problems. Though you have an analytical mind and often work independently, your good interpersonal and communication skills are also essential to your success--as you do spend a significant amount of time collaborating with management and colleagues. You enjoy the challenge of solving DoD's hardest systems integration challenges and being part of a close team.
