Schedule:M-F; 8-5 ## Description Torch Technologies is seeking a motivated Software Developer to support the development, integration, testing, and analysis of missile defense models and simulations. The ideal candidate will possess strong software-development experience and proficiency in Java, C++, Git, and Docker container technologies. This individual will work closely with engineers and technical personnel to develop and maintain modeling and simulation infrastructure; integrate missile defense component models into larger simulation environments; and support the verification, validation, analysis, and delivery of reliable simulation products. The ideal candidate will possess excellent communication skills, both oral and written, and the ability to work effectively in a collaborative team environment. Some of the primary responsibilities will include: * Modeling & Simulation Software Development: Design, develop, modify, and maintain software applications, component models, and simulation services supporting missile defense modeling and simulation activities. * M&S Infrastructure Development: Develop, configure, and maintain modeling and simulation infrastructure, development environments, interfaces, tools, and supporting services required to execute missile defense simulations. * Component Model Integration: Integrate missile defense component models into larger simulation environments; develop and maintain software interfaces; and resolve interoperability, data-exchange, and execution issues. * Software Testing & Analysis: Develop and execute unit, integration, regression, and system-level tests to verify software functionality, model behavior, interface compatibility, and simulation performance. * Technical Troubleshooting: Investigate, diagnose, document, and resolve complex software, model, interface, build, deployment, and runtime issues. * Containerization & Deployment: Use Docker containers to package, configure, deploy, and maintain software applications and modeling and simulation environments. * Configuration Management: Use Git and established configuration-management processes to manage source code, maintain version history, support collaborative development, and control software releases. * Engineering Team Collaboration: Work closely with engineers, analysts, and other technical personnel to define software requirements, implement technical solutions, analyze simulation results, and deliver customer-required products. ## Related Videos - [Docker Compose: Rediscovered](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1978-docker-compose-rediscovered) - [How a Small Team Shrank a Microsoft Monorepo by 94%](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1236-how-a-small-team-shrank-a-microsoft-monorepo-by-94) - [Containers and Kubernetes made easy: Deep dive into Podman Desktop and new AI capabilities](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1133-containers-and-kubernetes-made-easy-deep-dive-into-podman-desktop-and-new-ai-capabilities) - [Grappling With Clunky Old Software?
