## About the Role

* Bachelor's degree in engineering, computer science, or a related technical field, plus at least two years of relevant software engineering experience, or equivalent experience.
 * Experience developing production user interfaces using TypeScript and a modern component-based framework such as React, React Native, or Angular.
 * Experience contributing to the design, build, test, debug, and maintenance of user-facing application features.
 * Experience integrating front-end applications with backend services, APIs, data sources, or system workflows.
 * Experience with at least one backend or general-purpose programming language such as Node.js, Python, C#, Java, or similar.
 * Experience using Git and working in a collaborative software development environment.
 * Helpful but not required: experience with complex user-facing applications such as dashboards, operator interfaces, engineering tools, data visualization, or workflow-heavy applications.
 * Helpful but not required: exposure to Linux, Docker, radar, sensor, defense, or mission-critical software environments.
 * Ability to learn complex technical domains, communicate clearly, and work effectively with software, systems, integration, and test engineers.
 * U.S. citizenship is required. Ability to obtain and maintain a DoD security clearance may be required for future program work.

## Description

DRS RADA Technologies is seeking a full-time, on-site Software Engineer II to design, build, and maintain modern front-end applications and full-stack features that support mission-critical radar and defense systems. This hands-on role is ideal for an engineer with strong TypeScript and React skills who enjoys building user-facing software, integrating with backend services, and turning complex workflows into usable application features. Prior radar or defense experience is helpful but not required; we value strong software fundamentals, curiosity, and the ability to learn complex technical domains., * Build, test, debug, and maintain front-end applications and full-stack features that support mission-critical radar and defense systems.

 * Develop user-facing application features using TypeScript, React, and related front-end technologies.
 * Integrate user interfaces with backend services, REST APIs, data sources, and system workflows.
 * Collaborate with backend, systems, integration, and test engineers to turn complex requirements into usable software features.
 * Help turn limited requirements, CONOPS, and user workflows into practical application designs that can be reviewed, refined, and implemented.
 * Participate in code reviews, debugging, testing, documentation, and delivery of production-quality software.
 * Help improve usability, reliability, maintainability, and consistency across application features.
 * Learn relevant domain concepts such as radar workflows, Linux-based environments, and mission-system operations., * This is not a content-focused front-end role. The work is focused on interactive application features, tools, workflows, and interfaces that support mission-critical radar and defense systems.
 * This is not a backend or platform engineering role. While you will integrate with backend services, APIs, and system workflows, the primary focus is front-end and full-stack application feature development.
 * This is not a remote position. This full-time role is based on-site in Germantown, Maryland, where close collaboration with software, systems, hardware, integration, and test teams is essential.
 * This is not a senior architect role. The Software Engineer II is expected to contribute independently, make sound implementation decisions, collaborate effectively, and grow technical ownership over time.
 * This is not software developed in isolation. You will work within a cross-functional team and contribute to applications that must be usable, reliable, and maintainable in demanding real-world defense environments.
