About The Position
Wyetech is seeking a motivated Software Engineer to develop and maintain high-performance cloud-based analytic solutions that process large volumes of data. The role involves developing, maintaining, and enhancing complex software systems based on documented requirements, including processing-intensive analytics, algorithm development, very large data sets, real-time systems, and business management information systems. The engineer may work individually or as part of a team, review and test software components against design requirements, document test results, resolve software problem reports, and apply appropriate software development and design methodologies. The position contributes to system design by evaluating hardware/software trade-offs, software reuse, COTS/GOTS options, and requirements analysis. Work includes developing and modifying software, algorithms, database interfaces and queries; integrating software into systems and operating environments; testing and documenting components; and analyzing system performance, data use, workflows, and problem areas. Depending on the project and development process, the role may lead or oversee software development teams, perform quality control, coordinate installations, and monitor equipment operation. Wyetech describes itself as a small business founded in 2007 and emphasizes employee well-being and customer service. This position requires an active TS clearance with a customer-appropriate polygraph and U.S. citizenship due to federal contract requirements. The stated pay range is $78.99–$99.84 per hour; actual compensation may vary based on contract rates, education, experience, skills, certifications, and location.
Requirements
- Fourteen years of experience as a Software Engineer on programs and contracts of similar scope, type, and complexity.
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a related discipline from an accredited college or university; four additional years of relevant Software Engineer experience on projects with similar software processes may substitute for the degree.
- Experience with Spark, MapReduce, SQL/NoSQL, or Pandas/NumPy/SciPy.
- Cloud experience.
- Demonstrated work experience with distributed, scalable Big Data stores (NoSQL), such as HBase, CloudBase/Accumulo, or Bigtable.
- Demonstrated work experience with the MapReduce programming model and technologies such as Hadoop, Hive, or Pig.
- Demonstrated work experience with the Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS).
- Active TS clearance with a customer-appropriate polygraph.
- U.S. citizenship and position-appropriate security clearance are required due to federal contract requirements.
Responsibilities
- Analyze user requirements to derive software design and performance requirements.
- Design and code new software or modify existing software to add features, correct errors, adapt to hardware, or improve performance.
- Debug existing software and correct defects.
- Integrate software into new or modified systems and operating environments.
- Develop simple queries for existing or proposed databases and data repositories, and design or implement complex database or repository interfaces and queries.
- Recommend and implement improvements to documentation and software development process standards.
- Develop or implement algorithms that meet or exceed system performance and functional standards, including algorithms subject to timing, resource, or interface constraints.
- Assist with developing and executing test procedures for software components; review and test components against design requirements, document test results, and perform quality control on team products.
- Write or review software and system documentation.
- Analyze system performance standards, system flows, data usage, workflows, and problem areas to develop software solutions, consulting with users and system engineers as appropriate.
- Provide software-design input regarding hardware/software trade-offs, software reuse, COTS/GOTS use, and requirements analysis and synthesis.
- Use scientific analysis and mathematical models to predict and measure the outcomes and consequences of software design.
- Confer with system and hardware engineers to derive software requirements and understand project limitations, capabilities, performance requirements, and interfaces.
- Serve as a team lead or oversee one or more software development teams as appropriate to the project, ensuring work follows the applicable development process and constraints.
- Coordinate software system installation and monitor equipment functioning to ensure operational specifications are met.
- Resolve software problem reports.
Benefits
- Employer contributes the equivalent of 20% of salary to the employee’s SEP IRA.
- PTO plan of up to 200 hours annually, with allocation flexibility at the start of each calendar year.
