  • This position requires access to federal facilities. Candidates must possess a valid, unexpired Real ID-compliant driver’s license or state-issued identification card at the time of hire. If you are unsure whether your ID is Real ID-compliant, please check for the star symbol in the upper portion of your driver’s license or state ID.
  • Ability to complete a pre-employment background check, breath alcohol test, and drug screening, which will include but is not limited to testing for marijuana use.
  • 5 or more years of experience with C++, Python, embedded systems, hardware/software integration, simulations, and Linux-based operating systems.
  • Experience with object-oriented software design and development.
  • Experience developing or maintaining automated software tests.
  • Experience with requirements analysis, requirements verification, systems engineering concepts, and software/system integration.
  • Understanding of Software Configuration Management practices and tools, including Bitbucket and Jira.
  • Strong software debugging skills.
  • Demonstrated ability to write technical reports.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
  • Ability to support occasional travel up to 25%.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Mathematics, Systems Engineering, or related technical discipline.

Desired Skills, Experience, and Education:
