What this job asks for AI summary
A mid-to-senior integration engineering role focused on designing, building, and maintaining connections between enterprise software systems using APIs, middleware, and event-driven pipelines (REST, SOAP, GraphQL, Kafka, and similar technologies). The position covers the full lifecycle — from architecture and development through testing, documentation, and production monitoring — and suits an experienced engineer comfortable owning complex integrations end-to-end within national security environments.
Senior level · 8+ years · Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV · Bachelor's required · TS/SCI clearance · Full-time

Estimated from BLS employment for this occupation and area, per-skill prevalence across our listing corpus, and published wage benchmarks — as of Jul 28, 2026. It is a model, not a headcount.
Why we read it this way (7)
The role lists three possible work locations: Warrenton, VA; Centennial, CO; and Augusta, GA. The CBSA is set to the Washington-DC metro (where Altamira is headquartered and Warrenton, VA is the closest major metro anchor), but candidates may actually be based in the Denver or Augusta metros.
An active TS/SCI clearance is a hard gate listed under Required Qualifications. A CI Poly is listed under Desired Qualifications and is therefore preferred, not required.
The JD names Kafka, Azure Service Bus, and SQS together as examples of event-driven messaging platforms; they are treated as interchangeable alternatives for that single requirement.
The skills listed (REST, SOAP, GraphQL, Kafka/Azure Service Bus/SQS) appear in the responsibilities narrative rather than a discrete 'Required Skills' list, but the Required Qualifications section gates on 'end-to-end integration ownership: design, build, deploy, and monitor' — these named technologies are the concrete tools through which that ownership is exercised and are treated as hard gates accordingly.
No specific programming language is named in the posting; 'developing, testing, and debugging code' is mentioned generically without naming a language.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): API documentation.
Requires a TS/SCI clearance — the cleared population is a small fraction of this occupation, so the real candidate pool is materially smaller than the estimate below, which does not model clearance.
