  6. Travel to our LA office once every 2 weeks (for 2-3 days at a time) to participate in Engineering Sprint activities
  7. Minimum of 5+ years of experience in professional, object-oriented software development
  8. Experience with Python, SQL data warehouses, and no-SQL systems
  9. Experience building, testing, and supporting major systems in production

Preferred Requirements:

  • Development experience in Ground or Airborne Sensors (Radars, EO/IR, EW, etc.)
  • Data Engineering/Big Data analysis
  • High-bandwidth networking
  • Modeling & Simulation, including hardware-in-the-loop and software-in-the-loop testbeds for algorithm verification
  • Experience designing algorithms for RF/IQ, target detection, and tracking

  • Experience with Software Defined Radios (e.g. Ettus)
  • Experience with 2D and 3D Visualization ideally in defense use cases
  • Experience with software development tools enforcing software-development best practices (e.g. linting, code coverage, code quality/security scanning, doc gen, etc.)
  • Experience with software design, code, integration, and testing of production systems
  • Experience with git
  • Familiarity with Azure or other cloud platforms
  • Experience with additional languages such as Rust, NodeJS, Java, Bash, etc.
  • Work with commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) hardware (e.g. computers, switches, Software-Defined Radios, etc.)

  • More About Us: We're building the next generation of aerospace, defense and critical industry technologies with a seasoned team of mission-focused individuals. We were founded in June 2022 and our goal is to become the platform where world-class engineers come to solve critical, real-world problems. We use agile engineering approaches which enable rapid prototyping, deep partnerships with the defense industry ensuring real-world application, and our newly-invented Coherence platform (through which we’ve made a fundamental breakthrough) improves sensor performance and decision-making in real-time.
