deciBel Research, Inc.
Overview
deciBel Research seeks a senior software engineer to become part of the Ground-based Mid-course Defense (GMD) Weapon System (GWS) Contract in support of the Missile Defense Agency (MDA). The GMD Program is a critical part of the nations layered Ballistic Missile Defense System providing the US with the capability to engage and intercept long range ballistic missile threats during midcourse flights. The Ground Systems component of GMD provides the capability to process data received from radars and overhead sensors, communicate across a complex network of redundant nodes, interact with the warfighter, compute intercept solutions, command and direct ground-based interceptors to their targets. Responsibilities
Maintain lab and mini node configurations to include adding, removing, updating Redhat package manager modules (RPMs) for testing/verification Produce lab runs to test and evaluate new software capabilities as well as perform daily log file management Create scenarios and input files to evaluate specific conditions and software behaviors in the GMD Fire Control software Perform message tracing between portions of GFC software to ensure system functions as intended Investigate and document issues discovered during lab runs and provide log files to software developers Attain/Maintain Security+ certification and continuation education training requirements for a privileged user account Support daily Scrum meetings Education Requirements
Bachelor’s degree in a STEM related field from an accredited university with five years’ experience, or a Master’s degree and three years’ experience. Experience Requirements
Fundamental understanding of the engineering process and experience with system development of a software-centric product (preferably with a system in a system of systems type environment) C++, Java, Ada Experience generating scripts and a fundamental understanding of software development with the ability to troubleshoot and support software integration efforts Detail oriented at both the macro and micro levels along with a willingness to assess software from both perspectives Familiar with Microsoft Office products such as Word, Excel, Power Point Strong critical‑thinking and solid problem‑solving skills coupled with an innate desire to learn Well‑organized and intrinsically motivated to work with limited direction in a dynamic team environment, often requiring the ability to successfully juggle competing priorities Possess strong verbal/written communications skills to work effectively in a small technical team environment with both collocated and geographically dispersed team members Desire and curiosity to learn more about the components of GMD and how they fit together and communicate Current Security+ certification GMD experience Missile Defense Agency (MDA) experience Experience with application software and systems that contain Graphical User Interfaces (GUIs), logical and mathematical solutions in a Linux environment Linux GUI building tools, such as Eclipse and GPS Clearance and Citizenship
Applicant selected must have an active Secret security clearance. Must be a U.S. Citizen.
