Job Description
We are seeking a Systems Engineer with strong software development expertise to support the development of command and control software for a cutting-edge application. This role requires a true engineer-not just a software developer-capable of designing, integrating, and managing complex hardware-software interactions across multiple subsystems. The selected candidate will join our team working on-site at Ft. Belvoir to advance mission-critical experimental systems.
Responsibilities: Design, develop, and implement command and control software for LIDAR payload systems Interface with GPS/GNSS equipment, scanning mirrors, lasers, and laboratory devices (e.g., time delay generators, oscilloscopes) Ensure precise timing synchronization and high-rate data acquisition across subsystems Develop remote operations capabilities, including subsystem command execution and telemetry return Program across Windows and Linux environments, with focus on performance, reliability, and scalability Document algorithms, interfaces, and system designs through UML diagrams and software ICDs Collaborate with engineers and scientists on integration, testing, and field experimentation Qualifications: Must hold an active DoD Secret security clearance (Top Secret preferred) Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Software Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or related field 3-5 years of engineering experience with software development for hardware-integrated systems Proficient in programming in both Windows and Linux environments Proficiency in C, C++, or Rust (assembly and high-performance computing experience a plus). Experience with Python; Flask experience a plus Skilled in embedded systems programming (microcontrollers; FPGA experience a plus, experience interfacing with laboratory measurement equipment is a plus) Experience with laboratory equipment integration and data acquisition. Proficient in object-oriented programming, multithreaded/parallel programming (OpenMP, CUDA, or OpenCL a plus) Familiarity with GUI/UI/UX development and networking protocols (REST APIs, WebSocket). Experience documenting and communicating algorithms/code through UML diagrams and software ICDs Experience with networking/network programming a plus (e.g. experience working with REST APIs or WebSocket) Strong communication skills for technical documentation and cross-team collaboration Desired Skills Experience with SIMD/MIMD parallel programming Experience in high-throughput data recording and storage optimization Prior work with remote command and control of scientific payloads
