About the job

Requirements
  • Deep technical expertise in JavaScript, TypeScript, React, HTML, CSS, and modern front-end architectural patterns.
  • Experience with testing frameworks such as Playwright, Vitest, Jest, or React Testing Library; modern build tools and bundlers such as Vite or Webpack; CI/CD pipelines; and AI developer workflows.
  • Hands-on experience building interactive 2D/WebGL frontends using Pixi.js, optimizing browser performance via Web Workers, and utilizing profiling tools.
  • At least 7 years, or equivalent demonstrated depth, of experience in front-end software engineering, with a proven track record of mentoring junior and mid-level developers and driving architecture reviews.
  • Deep knowledge of web accessibility standards, system-level performance optimization, and design system engineering.
  • Strong written and verbal communication across technical and non-technical audiences, with the ability to build consensus and refine user flows.
  • Ability to align front-end technical strategy with business goals, deconstruct complex features into iterative components, and mitigate technical debt.
  • Bachelor’s degree in computer science, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, civil engineering, mathematics, physics, or a related technical field.
Responsibilities

  • Design reusable architecture patterns and contribute to the evolution of shared tooling and design systems.
  • Identify and resolve performance bottlenecks and accessibility issues at a systemic level.
  • Mentor associate and mid-level engineers by providing technical guidance, code review feedback, and pair programming support.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional partners and design teams to clarify ambiguous requirements and align UI implementation with product strategy.
  • Influence roadmap priorities through technical feasibility insights and proactive risk mitigation.
  • Build interactive 2D/WebGL frontends using Pixi.js and optimize performance via Web Workers.

About the company

Tenet3 delivers cybersecurity for DoD-scale cyber-physical systems, combining zero-day vulnerability detection, microelectronics inspections, and quantitative risk assessments using model-based system engineering (MBSE). Its MeTRA platform creates digital twins and digital threads across a system’s lifecycle to identify vulnerabilities and guide security investments, while MeTRA-HUB provides IL5 cloud hosting and BOMSquad analyzes SBOMs to spot risky C/C++ code. The company differentiates itself with defense-domain expertise, lifecycle-spanning digital models, and a closed-loop MBSE approach tailored to quantify risk and optimize security choices, rather than offering generic tools. Its goal is to harden critical defense infrastructure by delivering measurable risk reduction and strong support for Zero Trust architectures across hardware, software, and processes, under federal contracts and SBIR/IDIQ programs.

Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • The Air Force added $3.36M in May 2026 for anti-tamper engineering.
  • SCOUT tracks $25.3M across ten award actions during the last year.
  • GSA leads buying for Tenet3, widening federal access beyond a single program office.

What critics are saying

  • Tenet3's revenue concentration in DoD awards creates lethal budget timing dependence.
  • SCOUT shows $69.5M Phase III and $750K SBIR work expiring by 2027.
  • SAM registration expires October 10, 2026, threatening award execution and recompete eligibility.

What makes Tenet3 unique

  • MeTRA turns cyber-physical systems into digital twins spanning as-designed, as-built, operating states.
  • Tenet3 holds AFRL IL5 approval and runs MeTRA®HUB on AWS GovCloud.
  • Jeff Hughes brings 40 years of DoD anti-tamper leadership into Tenet3's core offering.
