Full job description
About the Team:
STR’s Analytics & C2 Division develops novel technologies to solve challenging national security problems through advanced analytics. Our team consists of passionate and motivated individuals with degrees in engineering, computer science, mathematics, physics, and data science. We use our expertise and creativity to take innovative ideas from conception to mature implementation in order to improve mission success.
The Collaborative Autonomy and Control (CAC) Group in the AC2 Division works to build software systems that solve critical problems in the areas of uncrewed system autonomy, multi-agent collaboration, resource management, and control. By leveraging expertise in machine learning, algorithms, model-predictive control, and software development, we build tools that support tactical mission planning and execution, autonomous reasoning, and more.
The Role:
As an Autonomy Algorithms Senior Software Engineer, you will work as part of a tightly knit team to design, develop, implement, integrate, test, and demonstrate advanced algorithms and software systems for autonomous platforms. You will provide technical leadership and mentoring on programs working throughout the software and system development lifecycle, from early prototypes to integrated systems. Your work will develop a diverse set of software tools and applications for mission planning systems, automated control processes, unmanned platforms, DevSecOps, and CI/CD pipelines. This position is based in Woburn, MA, Arlington, VA, or Dayton, OH, and will take advantage of STR’s flexible, hybrid environment – when the work does not require use of STR’s facilities, you are welcome to work remotely.
Who You Are:
Ability to obtain a security clearance, for which U.S Citizenship is needed by the U.S government
BS in Computer Science or related technical field with 5+ years of experience
3+ years of experience with C++ or Java
Full stack development experience but with a heavy focus on backend algorithmic development
Proven understanding of data structures, algorithms, concurrency, and code optimization of backend executables
Proven ability to develop, implement, integrate, and test autonomy algorithms and software
Not interested in Front end UI/UX or database management/interaction
Proven ability to work with research scientists to transition complex mathematical algorithmic concepts to software application
Proven ability to proactively assume leadership within modest size engineering teams (2-4 engineers) through complete Agile development lifecycle including task definition, delegation, and maintenance
Demonstrated success executing industry best practices in areas such as code review, unit testing, test coverage, static analysis, etc., to ensure mature, high quality software products
Experience in supporting system/software architecture design at the system and system of systems (SoS) levels
Experience utilizing the following:
Object-Oriented Programming principles for large scale systems
Agile software lifecycle methodologies and tools, such as JIRA, Confluence, Gitlab, static analysis, etc
Test-driven development methodologies
A demonstrated ability to adopt new languages, libraries, and technologies
Even Better:
MS or PhD in Computer Science or related technical field
Experience with the following:
Collection Orchestration
Satellite Constellation Management
Containerization and service based architectures
Coordinating Electronic Warfare resources
Reinforcement learning
Agentic AI
Experience programming for embedded and physical devices
