About Peraton

Peraton is a next-generation national security company that drives missions of consequence spanning the globe and extending to the farthest reaches of the galaxy. As the world's leading mission capability integrator and transformative enterprise IT provider, we deliver trusted, highly differentiated solutions and technologies to protect our nation and allies. We operate at the critical nexus between traditional and nontraditional threats across all domains: land, sea, space, air, and cyberspace. Our employees solve the most daunting challenges our customers face every day, serving as a valued partner to essential government agencies and supporting every branch of the U.S. armed forces.

About the Role

Join Peraton in advancing the safety, efficiency, and modernization of the National Airspace System (NAS) through the FAA's Brand New Air Traffic Control System (BNATCS) contract. As a trusted partner to the Federal Aviation Administration, Peraton helps deliver the systems and services that keep our nation's skies safe and connected.

We are looking for innovative professionals who thrive in mission-critical environments and are passionate about shaping the future of air traffic management. This is your chance to make an impact on one of the world's most vital transportation infrastructures, working alongside leaders in aviation, engineering, data science, and systems integration. At Peraton, you won't just support the mission—you'll define it.

As an Automation Developer SME, you will design, build, and maintain automation solutions that improve system reliability, testing efficiency, and operational performance across mission-critical programs. Your work will support modernization initiatives by developing automated capabilities across testing, deployment, monitoring, and operational workflows, enabling faster, more consistent, and more secure delivery of complex systems. You will help shape the future of U.S. airspace safety and efficiency.

Why This Role Matters

Automation is essential to delivering modern, resilient systems at scale. Your work reduces manual effort, minimizes risk, and increases confidence in system performance. By embedding automation into testing, deployment, and operations, you directly support system quality, security, and readiness—helping ensure critical national systems operate safely, efficiently, and reliably.

Work Location

This position is 100% on-site in Chantilly, VA.

Hiring Process & Application

The application period for this job is estimated to be 30 days from the posting date, though this timeline may be shortened or extended depending on business needs and candidate availability. By applying, you express interest in the role and the company. During the review process, you may be required to participate in an on-camera interview and a process to verify your identity.
