Software Engineer

Software engineers are needed for the development of advanced sensor control and signal processing systems. Software will be developed within a modern, object-oriented, modular open-systems architecture primarily using C++, Linux, and publish-subscribe middleware. The focus will be primarily on software for controlling radars, but could also extend to telemetry and optical systems.

Required Skills

• In-depth knowledge of C++ object-oriented programming with several years’ experience applying this knowledge to complex software architectures.
• Proven ability to quickly and effectively learn new technologies and programming languages, adapt to new environments and methodologies, and work outside one's own comfort zone.
• Experience with modern software development practices (e.g. spiral development), version control systems, debugging tools, and coordination/collaboration tools.
• Experience with software development within a Linux/UNIX environment.
  
  

Preferred Skills

• Experience with other programming/scripting languages such as Java, C, Python, MATLAB, and shell scripting.
• Experience with publish-subscribe middleware, parallel programming, and distributed systems.
• Familiarity with UNIX-like operating system architectures, network programming, and real-time programming.
• Familiarity with the architecture of x86-based computer.
• Familiarity with basic UNIX system and network configuration and administration to the extent that it aids in software development.
• Familiarity with, or a strong desire to learn about, processing and control of active sensing technologies such as Radars.
• Desire and ability to participate in field testing which may involve travel (Huntsville or Kwaj).
