Web Developer 🔥
Brief Program Scope Synopsis: Sit(x) is a collaborative platform for applications like the Team Awareness Kit (TAK). Users of Sit(x) can share situational awareness data, live video, and other geospatial data products in near real time allowing for collaboration inside of a tactical domain. The Sit(x) team helped create TAK and understands the unique challenges that are required when working with tactical end users.
Put your web development skills to the test to help keep first responders and military personnel safe. This is NOT a job posting for developing a boring back office enterprise application with a boring tech stack. This IS a job posting to help create innovative, cloud native solutions for tactical end users that love technology but hate when it gets in the way. If you are curious about the Team Awareness Kit (http://www.tak.gov) and want to help innovate inside of the community - please respond.
