Software Engineer

This onsite role focuses on the design, development, and integration of software supporting factory test systems for weapon system products. The engineer works hands on with modern tools and technologies across multiple phases of the engineering lifecycle, contributing to both engineering and production environments. The position supports full lifecycle software development—including applications, libraries, and instrument drivers—while collaborating with multidisciplinary teams to deliver reliable test solutions. 

 

Key deliverables for this role 

•  Design, develop, and integrate object oriented software applications in C# and C++ 

•  Support software development tasks across multiple priorities and timelines 

•  Troubleshoot software issues and test instrumentation 

•  Collaborate with cross functional engineering teams on system level solutions 

•  Develop and define requirements for software products 

 

What does success look like for this role? 

Success is demonstrated by independently driving software development tasks to completion, quickly resolving technical issues, and delivering robust test system capabilities that enable efficient production and sustainment operations.
