JOB DESCRIPTION: This position is ideal for a C++ generalist who thrives on tackling complex challenges in systems and systems integration. If you enjoy building cross-language software, improving CI/CD pipelines, and integrating distributed real-time systems, you'll find this role rewarding. Join a team that's driving innovation through robust software engineering and practical integration work across simulation environments, third-party systems, and development workflows. What You'll Do: • Design, implement, and maintain C++ and Python software in support of complex, cross-platform systems. • Contribute to system architecture with a focus on performance, maintainability, and integration. • Develop and support APIs and messaging interfaces (e.g., gRPC, REST, ZeroMQ). Integrate third-party software and hardware systems, including real-time and simulation tools. • Debug and support distributed systems, with attention to threading, timing, and data flow. • Apply modern agile practices such as test-driven development, continuous integration, and automated testing. • Improve and maintain CI/CD workflows using tools like GitLab CI, Docker, CMake, and Conan. • Collaborate across teams and projects to share solutions and promote good software practices. • Continuously learn and adapt to new tools, standards, and technologies. Required Qualifications: • Typically requires a minimum of 2 years of related experience with a Bachelor's degree; or a Master's degree; or a PhD without experience; or equivalent work experience. Strong proficiency in modern C++ (C++14/17/20) with the ability to work effectively in legacy codebases (C++98/03). • Proficiency in Linux/Unix environments, including system-level development and debugging tools. • Experience with Python. • Professional experience in Linux environments (Windows experience is a bonus). • Solid understanding of system-level engineering and design patterns. • Experience in a collaborative environment with CI/CD and test automation. • Experience with containerization technologies such as Docker. • Active SECRET clearance. Preferred Qualifications: • Experience integrating distributed simulation environments such as AFSIM or NGTS. • Familiarity with open standards like UCI and OMS, and an understanding of data buses and interface protocols common in avionics and aircraft systems. • Familiarity with simulation tools and modeling frameworks. • Experience with networking concepts and messaging infrastructure. • Hands-on experience with CMake, Conan, and GitLab CI/CD pipelines. • Exposure to real-time systems and hardware/software integration. • Ability to obtain a TS/SCI clearance. $95,221 - $142,831 a year #LI-LD1 #LB Full-time regular employee offer package: Pay within range listed + Bonus + Benefits + Equity Temporary employee offer package: Pay within range listed above + temporary benefits package (applicable after 60 days of employment) Salary compensation is influenced by a wide array of factors including but not limited to skill set, level of experience, licenses and certifications, and specific work location.
