This role requires a deep understanding of programming languages, designing and deploying modular applications, employing front-end and back-end technologies, and leveraging DevSecOps tooling to deliver automated mission management capabilities.This Senior Software Engineer role is in support of the U.S. Navy Spectral Program. Spectral is a seven-year $1.2B program to provide the U.S. Navy's next-generation signals intelligence, electronic warfare, and information operations software technologies. The Spectral system is critical to the ability for our forces to fight and win in the increasingly sophisticated and complex cyber and electronic threats of our adversaries.What You’ll Get to Do:
You will develop and deploy core enabling technologies for the cloud enabled combat systems that make up Spectral, leveraging the most advanced software technologies available. Spectral is not only delivering ground-breaking capabilities to the warfighter today, but also building a modular distributed architecture that allows the system to rapidly evolve, deploy, and adapt to scale multi-echelon operations. Creative solutioning and thinking outside the box to solve manual pain points for the warfighter through innovative engineering and rapid deployment of software running in production. Developing software technologies and leveraging first class tooling to generate high availability, low latency, fault tolerance, and scalability across multi-echelon distributed environments. As a Senior Software Engineer, collaborate closely across Integrated Product Teams to design software solutions for processing algorithms across distributed systems, ensuring performance and reliability at scale for the Spectral systemMore About the Role:
As a Senior Software Engineer, you will have the opportunity to build and deploy high quality software applications that directly impact the U.S. Navy’s employment of Spectral Mission Management and Support Services.The Mission Management team provides the powerful capability for Spectral capabilities to be dynamically allocated between mission functions while detecting and automatically healing system functionality and ensuring intra and inter-system trust.
