Join the Black Cape Team – Where Your Career Takes Flight
Black Cape Tenets of Success
At Black Cape, we believe that people are our greatest asset. When you join the Black Cape team, you become part of a group of dedicated professionals committed to mission success and continuous growth. Black Cape strives to ensure that your skills, experience, and aspirations align with impactful projects, all while maintaining a healthy work-life balance. We seek to recruit talented people with varied experience levels including college graduates, exiting military personnel, talented subject matter experts (SMEs), and seasoned professionals from the industry with years of experience. The following tenets are crucial to what makes Black Cape perform at a high level each and every day.
Flexible AGILE Development Processes with an Emphasis on Time Management
We believe good teams and continual learning are core to delivering extraordinary results. Our teams are typically 4-8 engineers that fully understand and manage the software development lifecycle and the project management process. Teams come up with agile processes that work for their customers rather than strict adherence to any one standard. Engineers are responsible for everything from requirements gathering and sprint planning to UI development, backend coding, testing, DevOps, and deployment. On a daily basis, you will have a standup with your team, hold design sessions to work through tough issues, or plan the next sprint.
Engineers are Professionals
We believe in treating our engineers like professionals. That means providing engineers with top of the technology, creating policies that allow flexible work locations, and time off plans that make sense. This also means that we expect the very best out of our engineers and a high level of maturity in your conduct and actions. We want engineers to use the latest tools and techniques to generate game changing results for our customers. Our customers look to us for innovative solutions, and as engineers, we constantly sharpen our skills while adding new tricks to our bag.
Mentorship and Constant Learning
Black Cape seeks people who strive to learn and improve their skills. This includes conducting research on new techniques or state-of-the-art methods to solve problems, working on important AWS or COMPTIA certifications, or using your time off work to develop personal projects that make you a better developer. Do you have a desire to help junior engineers refine their skills and become better engineers? Do you want to learn to leverage new and improved technology to meet exacting customer requirements? We want learners that want to take new, innovative ideas and apply them to our mission sets.
Special Hiring Programs
As a Veteran-Owned Small Business, we know that talented engineers and personnel exist at all experience levels. We pride ourselves in two of our special hiring programs that are designed to find the best people and recruit them into Black Cape.
Summer Internship Program
Are you a college student and want an internship where you will make a true difference? Do you want to work with software developers on a real project and see your hard work directly in our customer applications? Do you want to amaze your professors and fellow students with the knowledge you gain over the summer? If this is true, Black Cape is for you. Black Cape’s outstanding and selective summer internship program is designed to find highly talented college students and challenge them in a real-world environment. During the summer, you will be assigned to an active software development team and paired with a full-time Black Cape employee that will mentor you throughout the summer. Black Cape regularly hires from its summer intern pool directly out of college. If you are a high performer and want a challenge, reach out to recruiting@blackcape.io between the months of September through December to get an interview spot.
DOD Skillbridge Program
As a veteran-owned business, Black Cape strongly believes in supporting the transition of active service members into their reserve or civilian lives. Black Cape’s skillbridge program empowers transitioning service members to gain valuable skills before ending their active military service. Similar to the summer intern program, it is a challenging, fast paced, and rewarding opportunity to gain experience. Black Cape is an approved skillbridge partner and may be verified on the DOD Skillbridge website by searching for Black Cape, Inc in the keyword bar.
