The developer will work closely with systems engineers and hardware teams to design, analyze, and mature PNT capabilities in laboratory and field environments.
Key Responsibilities
Design, develop, and maintain software supporting systems, simulations, and performance analysis environments
Lead development and implementation of algorithms grounded in first principles physics, including measurement modeling, error characterization, and estimator behavior under non ideal conditions
Architect and integrate within software frameworks supporting simulation, analysis, and test
Integrate software with hardware- and software-in-the-loop (HITL& SITL) and digital twin environments
Define and develop interfaces between software components and external systems
Lead and support test planning, execution, and analysis for PNT-focused experiments, demonstrations, and evaluations
Collaborate with systems engineers to align system requirements, hardware constraints, and software designs
Review, mentor, and provide technical guidance to junior and mid-level engineers
Document software designs, algorithms, and test results to support technical reviews and customer deliverables
Participate in team technical interchange meetings to describe technical activities, progress, issues, improvements, and more
Required Qualifications
Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical discipline
Strong verbal and written communications skills
8+ years of professional experience developing software for technical systems
Proficiency in C/C++ or Python with experience owning complex software components or frameworks
Experience developing software on Linux and Windows based systems
Strong understanding of PNT concepts (e.g., Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSSs),, inertial navigation, timing, sensor fusion) and associated error sources
Experience integrating software with complex systems, simulations, or external hardware components
Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. DoD security clearance
Desired Qualifications
Advanced experience with GPS/GNSS signal processing, navigation algorithms, or timing systems
Experience developing or evaluating alternative or resilient PNT approaches
Experience with modeling, simulation, or digital twin environments supporting PNT analysis
Familiarity with real-time or embedded systems
Experience with HIL/SIL test architectures, laboratory integration, or field testing
Experience supporting DoD programs, laboratory R&D, or operational prototyping efforts
Basic Compensation: $150,000 - $200,000 (For Beavercreek, OH Only)
The offered rate will be based on the selected candidate's knowledge, skills, abilities and/or experience and in consideration of internal parity.
