Description

Northrop Grumman Space Systems, Multi-Domain Operations, and Missile Defense Integration Business Unit (BU) has an exciting career opportunity for a Missile Tracking Systems Specialist (Level 3 or 4 – Software Engineer) on the BOA program. Join our team in solving critical engineering challenges in the defense and aerospace sector. We are seeking a Missile Tracking Systems Specialist to design, implement, and optimize solutions for missile tracking domain applications.

This position is 100% in-person, with a campus nestled in the foothills of Boulder, CO, just 25 miles from downtown Denver. Our site is home to around 300 engineers, with approximately half of them supporting the BOA program.

Position Overview:

This role is built for sharp technical problem solvers. While you will be translating domain requirements into functional modern C++ code, we value your analytical mindset and tracking expertise over a traditional software background. Whether you possess basic coding skills or bring deep expertise in low-latency architectures, you will play a pivotal role in ensuring our tracking systems operate with mission-critical precision.

Essential Functions:

Solve Technical Problems: Analyze complex, abstract algorithmic challenges and engineer reliable solutions for tracking applications.

Implement Domain Requirements: Translate tactical requirements into functional logic and scalable workflows deployed in missile tracking environments.

Bridge Logic and Design: Turn complex mission requirements into structured, reliable tracking code and technical processes.

Collaborate and Iterate: Work alongside system architects and domain experts to continuously improve tracking capabilities.

Seeking candidates who find satisfaction in working on challenging and diverse assignments in collaborative settings across all levels.

This requisition may be filled at a higher level based on the qualifications listed below.

This requisition may be filled at either the Missile Tracking Systems Specialist (Level 3 or 4).

Basic Qualifications:

Missile Tracking Systems Specialist (Level 3): Bachelor’s Degree in a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics) discipline preferred from an accredited university and 5 years of related experience, or a master’s degree in a STEM discipline and 3 years of experience, or a PhD and 1 year of experience.

Missile Tracking Systems Specialist (Level 4): Bachelor’s Degree in a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics) discipline from an accredited university and 8 years of related experience, or a master’s degree in a STEM discipline and 6 years of experience, or a PhD and 4 years of experience.

Security Clearance: All applicants must have a current active, in-scope U.S. Government-issued Secret Security Clearance at the time of application which is required to start.

Work Location: Ability to work 100% in-person at our office due to the classified nature of the program.

Problem-Solving Core: Proven ability to break down complex technical problems and build concrete solutions.

Foundational Coding: Basic programming skills and the comfort level to write and understand software logic.

Domain Alignment: Experience, education, or significant familiarity with tracking systems.

Preferred Qualifications:

Domain Expertise: Experience with sensor processing, tracking (data fusion, false track reduction, cross-track resolution), state estimation (Kalman filters), orbital dynamics, or optimization & assignment algorithms.

Advanced Coding: Strong expertise in C++ development, C POSIX Linux programming, or CUDA GPU programming. Understanding of proper API library development, unit testing with dependency injection, or dependency decoupling.

Architecture Experience: Background building highly resilient, low-latency, real-time systems (thread pools, memory pools, event sourcing, Linux HPC).

Why Join Us?

Mission-Driven Work: Make a direct, tangible impact every day through work that actively saves lives.

Driven Yet Balanced: Thrive in a motivating environment that values your career growth alongside your personal well-being.

Inclusive & Collaborative: Bring your authentic self to a friendly, diverse team that actively encourages unique perspectives.

Stable & Growing: Join a well-established, highly regarded program with strong customer relationships and continued expansion.
