  • Design and maintain seamless interoperability with Containerization frameworks, Restful APIs and interfaces from external tool suites.
  • Oversee the architectural implementation of heuristic algorithms for search plan optimization, deterministic statistical roll-ups for Probability of Acquisition (Pacq), and 4/3 Effective Earth Radius models for terrain masking (using DTED).
  • Ensure robust data ingestion and export pipelines for tactical log data from radars and tactical binary search plan files (SPT, OSP, Custom XML).
  • Support the software team in adopting DoD DevSecOps best practices, ensuring all code meets rigorous cybersecurity standards for deployment in operational military environments.
  • Contribute to a team of software engineers and radar systems analysts in translating complex physics and engineering models into scalable, performant software code.
