About The Position

This is a position for a Software Engineer on F35 Pilot Training Devices (PTD) as part of the Weapons Integrated Product Team (IPT). The role involves planning, conducting, and coordinating software development activities. The engineer will design, develop, document, test, and debug software using logical and mathematical methods, applying established standards and processes throughout the development life cycle. This includes translating high-level requirements into detailed software specifications, designing, coding, and unit testing C/C++ components for real-time or safety-critical applications. The position also requires developing and executing test plans, participating in all SDLC phases, identifying and correcting program errors, analyzing system capabilities, and ensuring software deliverables meet quality and compliance standards. This position requires a candidate who is a U.S. Citizen and has the ability to obtain an Interim Secret security clearance prior to start. The role is located at a facility that requires special access.
