Software Developer with hadrware & software background

Software Developer- APPLY U.S CITIZENS ONLY.

Experience: 2-3 years minimum experience.

Environment:

The software developer is responsible for developing and implementing software modules that will contribute to a library that will support rapid prototyping of sensor control and processing systems in Lincoln Laboratory projects involving the Ranges and Test Beds group. These projects involve hardware and software related to radar and other sensor systems. The software is multi-layered and includes C, C++, Python, Java, Matlab and other programming languages and operates in a real-time environment.  The software developer will participate in a variety of challenging development efforts. We seek a strong team player who is comfortable working on complex, cross-discipline projects.

Primary Responsibilities:

 

The software developer will work closely with the system architects and other developers for the various systems to design, develop, code, debug, and implement real-time software modules for control of sensors and processing of signals. The software developer will actively participate in the planning, specification, and testing of the system.  The software developer will comply with software standards and mission assurance practices dictated by the project leadership, sponsors, and Lincoln Laboratory. 

Requirements:

· Bachelor’s degree or equivalent, or commensurate experience, in Computer Science, Engineering, Physics, Mathematics, or similar scientific or engineering discipline.
