We are seeking an experienced Software Engineer to support USSF in the development of a next-generation satellite testbed environment. In this role, you will contribute to the design and implementation of both flight-software-representative applications and ground station software used to exercise, validate, and integrate space system behaviors. You will work within an advanced hardware-in-the-loop flat-satellite test configuration that simulates spacecraft functions.

As part of a collaborative engineering team, you will participate across the software lifecycle-including requirements interpretation, architecture, implementation, integration, automated testing, and system troubleshooting.
