Join a fast-moving, self-directed engineering team focused on embedded software development for cybersecurity and C5ISR (Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Cyber, Intelligence, Surveillance & Reconnaissance) systems across a family of ground combat vehicles. This role supports full product development-from architecture and integration through validation and accreditation-in a mission-critical defense environment.

Responsibilities:
  • Develop embedded software for secure military vehicle systems using C, C++, C#, Java, or Rust.
  • Apply computer science and mathematical principles to real-time, security-enhanced systems.
  • Support Cyber and C5ISR product development, architecture evaluation, testing, and compliance.
  • Integrate and evaluate hardware/software interfaces, ensuring proper system-level performance.
  • Participate in all stages of the software development lifecycle: requirements, design, implementation, testing, and integration.
  • Perform BSP development and low-level device driver programming on Linux or VxWorks platforms.
  • Develop software tools, scripts, and XML configurations to support cyber applications and system validation.
  • Configure firewalls and implement cybersecurity controls for embedded systems.
  • Conduct reverse engineering, protocol transformation, and interoperability development between networks/domains.
  • Support trade studies for cyber test tools, environments, and design decisions considering performance, cost, and reliability.
  • Review technical contract deliverables (CDRLs) and ensure system-level compliance.
  • Participate in peer reviews, defect tracking, and continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) processes.


Qualifications:
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related STEM field from an ABET-accredited institution.
  • DoD Secret clearance or higher (must be active).
  • Experience in embedded systems and cyber-secure software development, especially for military or automotive platforms.
  • Proficiency in C, C++, C#, Java, or Rust for embedded systems.
  • Experience with Linux or VxWorks internals, device drivers, and BSP integration.
  • Knowledge of network protocols (TCP/IP, UART, SPI, I2C).
  • Familiarity with IDE tools, version control, defect tracking, and CI/CD pipelines.
  • Ability to configure and secure embedded Linux systems and assess system vulnerabilities.
  • Ability to climb vehicles and navigate confined spaces (must meet Anthropometric Size Restrictions).

Preferred Qualifications:
  • Experience supporting Cybersecurity compliance for DoD systems.
  • Familiarity with reverse engineering, firewall integration, and inter-domain protocol transformation.
  • Exposure to electronic hardware, line-replaceable units, or vehicle network integration.
  • Cybersecurity certifications such as CISSP, CEH, or equivalent are a plus.
  • Ability to work non-standard hours (nights/weekends) as needed by program milestones.
