Full Stack Software Engineer

About Rune

Rune Technologies builds mission-critical software for military logistics and sustainment. Our flagship product is TyrOS, an AI-enabled logistics command and control platform that gives commanders a single, real-time operating picture of their sustainment fight, from inventory and distribution to medical and operational planning, even in degraded and contested environments.

We're not a traditional defense contractor. We're a small, fast-moving team that combines deep operational experience in and with the DoD with the software discipline of the best product companies, and we apply that combination to a customer set that desperately needs it. We stay close to our users by embedding directly with military units during exercises and rotations, and we ship constantly based on what we learn.

The U.S. military and its allies face a real logistics modernization problem. We're building the software to solve it.

About the Role

At Rune Technologies, we are building the logistics technology backbone that the U.S. and allied militaries need to dominate in large-scale combat operations. As a Full Stack Software Engineer at Rune, you will be part of a high-impact, customer-driven team working at the intersection of advanced logistics algorithms, modern AI enabled software, and complex system integrations — all in support of the warfighter at the tactical edge.

You’ll join us in our mission to bring 21st-century software to the sustainment domain — modernizing inventory management, transportation optimization, and predictive maintenance with state-of-the-art user experiences. You’ll work closely with a team of experienced engineers, product designers, and operational experts who care deeply about delivering real-world impact to complex domain problems in the sustainment enterprise.

What You’ll Do

• Design, build, and deploy robust software solutions that address the DoD’s hardest logistics technology challenges.

• Understand, break down, model and integrate complex real world sustainment doctrine and tactics, techniques and procedures (TTPs) into Rune’s data models and technology solutions.

• Build and iterate on applications that deliver modern, intuitive experiences to users at the tactical edge.

• Integrate logistics data from diverse systems to enable real-time visibility, predictive insights, and optimized workflows.

• Implement challenging algorithmic backend solutions in a robust, scalable way to solve complex real-world logistics challenges faced by Rune’s customers.

• Participate in technical design discussions and code reviews, contributing to a culture of excellence, collaboration, and mission focus.

• Triage and debug issues in production, ensuring high reliability and rapid iteration in support of operational needs.

• Work closely with military stakeholders, engineers, and product managers to ensure our technology meets real-world sustainment requirements.

Qualifications

• 4+ years of experience in software engineering, preferably building and deploying production-grade web applications or distributed systems.

• Strong coding skills with demonstrated proficiency in programming languages such as Go, Python, TypeScript, or similar.

• Experience working with data pipelines, APIs, and system integrations.

• Strong sense of ownership and a bias for action — you thrive in fast-paced, dynamic environments where your work directly impacts mission outcomes.

• Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to translate user needs into technical solutions.

Desired Qualifications

• Experience working on software in defense, aerospace, or other complex operational domains.

• Familiarity with logistics, supply chain, or sustainment challenges — especially in military contexts.

• Experience deploying software to production environments in managed cloud infrastructure (e.g. AWS, Kubernetes) as well as Edge infrastructure (small form factor hardware).

• Exposure to data engineering, analytics, or machine learning in operational contexts.
