It serves as a force multiplier by networking, integrating, and synchronizing autonomous sensor and weapon systems and operations globally and regionally to improve performance. C2BMC is essential for all ground and flight tests that verify and demonstrate current and future missile defense system capabilities.
The Global Command and Control, Battle Management, and Communications program operates in a dynamic, fast-paced environment. The Software Engineer primarily joins the Global Track Processing (GTP) team, where they design, develop, test, and pursue innovative solutions supporting the Missile Defense program. Occasional non-standard hours may be required during critical moments, with minimal travel involved. The GTP team is essential to the mission, offering accurate global situational awareness to the warfighter through raw sensor data. They are looking for a software engineer skilled at maintaining and developing Java applications that depend on efficient algorithms and linear algebra. Ideal candidates are motivated to solve complex problems and to contribute positively to team camaraderie. This engineer should be eager to complete projects and ready to seek support when necessary.
