Are you interested in using your skills to help shape the Cyber, Security, & Intel space?
If so, look no further.
We are seeking a Software Engineer to join our team of passionate individuals.
In this role you will support challenging, mission-critical projects that make a direct impact on the nation’s security and intelligence mission.
The GoblinGlider (GG) Python/SDR SWE is focused on mission critical system development, deployment and evolution. This role involves developing robust applications in a Linux environment, emphasizing the integration of DevSecOps practices. The ideal candidate will have experience with CI/CD pipelines, Docker, Kubernetes, and Git, as well as a strong understanding of RF signals, particularly those related to satellite technologies.
Responsibilities:
The Software Engineer 2 develops, maintains, and enhances complex and diverse software systems (e.g., processing-intensive analytics, novel algorithm development, manipulation of extremely large data sets, real-time systems, and business management information systems) based upon documented requirements.
Works individually or as part of a team.
Reviews and tests software components for adherence to the design requirements and documents test results.
Resolves software problem reports.
Utilizes software development and software design methodologies appropriate to the development environment.
Provides specific input to the software components of system design to include hardware/software trade-offs, software reuse, use of Commercial Off-the-shelf (COTS)/Government Off-the-shelf (GOTS) in place of new development, and requirements analysis and synthesis from system level to individual software components.
Primary functions of this position:
Software Development:
Design, develop, test, and maintain applications using Python for software-defined radio technologies, focusing on GNU Radio-like and REDHAWK frameworks.
HELM for Kubernetes Management:
Utilize Helm to manage and deploy applications within Kubernetes environments, ensuring effective scaling and orchestration of SDR-related services.
DevSecOps Integration:
Collaborate with security teams to incorporate security practices throughout the software development lifecycle, including threat modeling, vulnerability assessments, and automated security testing.
Continuous Integration and Continuous Development (CI/CD):
Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines to automate testing, integration, and deployment processes, ensuring reliable and efficient software delivery.
Containerization:
Leverage Docker for containerizing applications, creating consistent environments for development, testing, and production.
Version Control:
Manage source code using Git, employing effective branching strategies, pull requests, and code reviews to uphold high code quality.
RF Signal Knowledge:
Apply understanding of RF signal processing, specifically related to satellite signals, to inform the design and implementation of SDR applications.
Collaboration:
Work closely with cross-functional teams, including product management, QA and operations to gather requirements, troubleshoot issues, and deliver solutions that meet user needs.
Documentation:
Maintain thorough documentation for code, processes, and architecture to facilitate knowledge sharing and ensure best practices.
Continuous Improvement:
Stay current with industry trends and emerging technologies in SDRs, RF communications, and DevOps, advocating for best practices in software development and security.
Desired Skills:
Proficiency in Python for software development within a Linux environment.
Experience with Helm for managing Kubernetes applications.
Strong understanding of GNU Radio and REDHAWK frameworks.
Familiarity with DevSecOps principles and practices.
Hands-on experience with CI/CD tools (e.g. Jenkins, GitLab CI, CircleCI).
Proficient in Docker for containerization and orchestration.
Networking and RF Knowledge:
Familiarity with RF signal processing, particularly with satellite signals and related technologies.
Understanding of networking concepts and protocols relevant to SDR applications.
Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities.
Excellent communication and collaboration skills.
Adaptability and a commitment to continuous learning and improvement.
If so, look no further.
