Original job description

Description

Are you a software engineer interested in developing innovative modeling and simulation tools to help solve challenging real-world problems?

Would you like the opportunity to apply your software development expertise to building advanced simulation capabilities that support the development and evaluation of next-generation defense systems?

If so, we’re looking for someone like you to join our team at APL!

The Networked Systems and Integrated Fires Group is seeking a Software Engineer to develop, enhance, and maintain modeling and simulation tools that support the analysis and development of advanced sensing, tracking, and integrated defense systems. You will work with a multidisciplinary team of software engineers, signal processing engineers, and systems analysts to build robust, efficient, and flexible simulation capabilities for evaluating complex systems and innovative technical concepts. Your work will involve improving existing software tools, developing new capabilities, and applying modern software engineering practices to support the development of future defense systems.

As a Software Engineer for Networked Sensor Systems, you will:

Design, develop, and maintain software tools and simulation frameworks used to evaluate advanced sensor processing, target tracking, multi-sensor fusion, and integrated defense system concepts.
Enhance the architecture, performance, maintainability, and usability of existing modeling and simulation tools to support evolving technical and analytical needs.
Develop new software components and integrate algorithms, models, and simulation capabilities using programming languages such as C/C++, MATLAB, and Python.
Collaborate with engineers and analysts to translate technical requirements and algorithm concepts into robust, efficient, and reusable software implementations.
Apply modern software engineering practices, including version control, automated testing, documentation, and software integration, to improve the reliability and sustainability of simulation tools.
Explore and implement new software architectures and technologies to expand simulation capabilities and improve development and analysis workflows.

Qualifications

You meet our minimum qualifications for the job if you…

Have a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Software Engineering, or a related technical field.
Have 3+ years of experience developing, testing, and maintaining complex software applications, preferably in scientific or engineering environments.
Are proficient in at least one of the following programming languages: C/C++, MATLAB, or Python, with the ability to learn others and work across multiple languages and development environments.
Have a solid understanding of software design principles, data structures, algorithms, and software development best practices.
Have strong analytical and problem-solving skills and the ability to collaborate effectively with multidisciplinary technical teams.
Are able to obtain an Interim Secret security clearance by your start date and can ultimately obtain a Secret security clearance. If selected, you will be subject to a government security clearance investigation and must meet the requirements for access to classified information. Eligibility requirements include U.S. citizenship.

You’ll go above and beyond our minimum requirements if you…

Have a Master’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Software Engineering, or a related technical field.
Have experience developing modeling and simulation tools for complex engineering or physical systems.
Have proficiency in multiple programming languages, including C/C++, MATLAB, and Python.
Have experience with software development tools and practices such as Git, automated testing, continuous integration, and containerization technologies such as Docker.
Have experience optimizing computational performance or integrating multiple models and software applications.
Have familiarity with integrated air and missile defense systems, particularly U.S. Navy systems and associated sensor networks.
Have familiarity with signal processing, sensor systems, target tracking, or multi-sensor data fusion.
