Join our unique, collaborative team to help implement leading-edge scientific software tools in fascinating domains. The main requirements are that candidates be top-notch, responsible, self-motivated, honest, able to work well independently or in small teams, and be able to rapidly learn new languages, tools, and techniques as needed to meet mission requirements.

Experience writing modern C++ is also required.

Applicants who convey a passion for developing quality code through listed projects, a link to an active github account, or extracurricular software development activities, will be given preference.

Experience in any of the following is a plus:

  • Additional languages: Java, Python, JavaScript, TypeScript

  • Relevant libraries: Boost, Qt, Eigen, Guava

  • Cross-platform development on Linux and Windows

  • 3D graphics: OpenSceneGraph, OpenGL, WebGL

  • Supercomputing: MPI, OpenMP, threads, GPUs

  • User interface development: Qt, Swing, Material UI

  • Continuous integration: git, Bitbucket, Jenkins, CMake

  • Image processing, imagery analysis, computer vision, computer aided design (CAD)

  • Aerospace vehicles, astrodynamics, electromagnetics, space domain awareness

  • Modeling and simulation, including directed energy

A representative sample of your object-oriented C++ code will be requested early in the evaluation process, e.g. something you have written for work, for a class, or for fun. It should be long enough to help evaluate your programming and software engineering skills.

Extremely flexible work schedule & generous benefits.

US Citizenship required + willingness to undergo a background investigation.

Positions are in Albuquerque, NM or Tysons Corner, VA (Washington DC area). Remote work is not available.
