Description
At Northrop Grumman, our employees have incredible opportunities to work on revolutionary systems that impact people's lives around the world today, and for generations to come. Our pioneering and inventive spirit has enabled us to be at the forefront of many technological advancements in our nation's history - from the first flight across the Atlantic Ocean, to stealth bombers, to landing on the moon. We look for people who have bold new ideas, courage and a pioneering spirit to join forces to invent the future, and have fun along the way. Our culture thrives on intellectual curiosity, cognitive diversity and bringing your whole self to work ? and we have an insatiable drive to do what others think is impossible. Our employees are not only part of history, they're making history.
Northrop Grumman Aeronautics Systems has an opening for a Virtual Simulation Software Engineer / Principal Software Engineer to join our team of qualified, diverse individuals. The selected candidate will be responsible for developing and modifying software for use in pilot-in-the-loop simulation of combat weapons systems employment. The Virtual Simulation software is primarily written in C++ along with some applications in other high level programming languages (Java, Python, etc.). The Virtual Simulation lab supports a relatively small, close-knit team of 12 software developers, 3 lab engineers, and 10-12 other regular users. This highly dynamic work environment requires software engineers with a diverse set of complementing skills, commitment to the small team dynamic, and a strong desire to learn new skills. This position is located in Melbourne, FL.
Essential Functions
? Development of software to simulate real-time operations and behavior of systems for virtual simulation (pilot-in-the-loop) experimentation and requirements validation so that future tactical aircraft can be evaluated in next generation air warfare mission environments
? Developing new and/or integrating existing system simulation frameworks, weapon system components to include air vehicle platform, kinematics, sensors, weapons, command & control, and threat performance models and algorithms
? Collaborating with subject matter experts to develop computer simulations of aircraft and weapon systems and integrating those models with the larger simulation
? Integrating and using advanced graphical user interfaces and visualization tools
? Modeling operational environments and performing trade studies via computer simulation resulting in recommendations for system architectures and configurations
? May support the design and development of visualization models and databases for integration with a high-fidelity simulation environment
We offer flexible work arrangements, 9/80 work schedule with every other Friday off, phenomenal learning opportunities, exposure to a wide variety of projects and customers, and a very friendly team environment. We are looking for self-motivated, proactive, and goal-oriented people to help us grow our services and become even better at what we do.
This position may be filled at either a Software Engineer or Principal Software Engineer Level. This role is contingent upon verification of DoD Clearance.
Basic Qualifications
? Software Engineer: Bachelor of Science degree in a Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics (STEM) discipline with 2 years of relevant experience or Master of Science in a STEM discipline
? Principal Software Engineer: Bachelor of Science degree in a STEM discipline with 5 years of relevant experience or Master of Science in a STEM discipline with 3 years of related experience.
? Demonstrated proficiency with computer/engineering software development using C++ (preferred), C#, Java or other object-oriented computer language
? Must have an active DoD Top Secret clearance with a background investigation completed within the last 6 years or currently enrolled into Continuous Evaluation
? Must have the ability to obtain and maintain Special Access Program (SAP) clearance.
Preferred Qualifications
? An understanding of tactical aircraft aero-performance, sensors, weapons, and/or communication systems
? An understanding of Integrated Air Defense Systems and capabilities
? An understanding of operational Command and Control systems and software
? Proven ability to work with a team in a rapid prototyping environment
? Competent writing and communication skills
? Experience performing weapon system level design, integration, or test & evaluation
? Ability to translate physics/mathematics models into real-time simulation algorithms
? Experience with real time simulation/software development
Salary Range: $77,200.00 - $115,800.00Salary Range 2: $95,300.00 - $142,900.00
The above salary range represents a general guideline; however, Northrop Grumman considers a number of factors when determining base salary offers such as the scope and responsibilities of the position and the candidate's experience, education, skills and current market conditions.
