  • Experience with Object Oriented Programming skills in C/C++
  • Proficiency in MATLAB and/or Python as well as other higher-level languages
  • Experience using source code management (Git, Subversion)

This position requires the ability to obtain a security clearance, for which U.S. citizenship is needed by U.S. Government

Even Better:

  • Active Security Clearance at the Secret or Top Secret (TS) level
  • Programming experience, particularly with open architecture systems
  • Experience with radar or EO/IR systems
  • Software development tools including continuous build, unit testing frameworks, static and dynamic code analysis
