Additional Information

Sophisticated integrated systems play a critical role in national security efforts, facilitating an understanding of the global situation, strategic planning, and tactical execution. The reliability, accessibility, and sophistication of these systems can determine the outcomes of conflicts before they begin. STR's Systems Development Division (SDD) focuses on developing advanced technology solutions to provide asymmetric advantages within the information domain. SDD executes the entire lifecycle of the solution, from conceptualization and architecture refinement through implementation and deployment, while leveraging novel technologies to deliver first-of-a-kind systems. Current efforts include programs for airborne and space RF sensors and advanced operations enabled by multi-function, multi-modal capabilities. As a Lead Software I&T Engineer you will integrate, test, and verify C++ software implementing complex embedded radar systems, with on Air-to-Air applications. Critically, this role is the pathfinder for SDD's SW I&T capability - you will capture lessons learned, establish reusable frameworks and processes, and lay the groundwork for department-level support across SDD's portfolio of programs.
