Job Description

Title: Software Engineer II / III – Radar Software (C++)
Location: Moorestown, NJ (Full time Onsite)


Job Summary
We are seeking a Software Engineer to support the development of advanced radar capabilities within a complex, real-time combat systems environment. This role focuses on the design, development, integration, optimization, and testing of mission-critical radar software operating across distributed, multi-processor computing architectures.

The ideal candidate has hands-on experience developing modern C++ applications in Linux environments and possesses a strong foundation in software engineering principles, object-oriented design, real-time systems, and performance optimization. Candidates with experience supporting radar systems, sensor processing, signal processing, missile defense, tracking systems, or other defense-related applications are highly preferred.

This position offers the opportunity to contribute directly to advanced radar capabilities supporting national defense missions.

Responsibilities
  • Design, develop, and maintain real-time radar software utilizing modern C++.
  • Develop software solutions for distributed and multi-processor computing environments.
  • Implement and optimize algorithms supporting radar control, tracking, sensor processing, and data management functions.
  • Analyze software performance and implement improvements to throughput, latency, and computational efficiency.
  • Support GPU acceleration efforts using CUDA or similar parallel computing technologies where applicable.
  • Develop automated unit, integration, and regression tests to ensure software quality and reliability.
  • Troubleshoot software defects and support root cause analysis activities across integrated systems.
  • Collaborate with systems engineers, integration teams, test engineers, and program leadership throughout the software lifecycle.
  • Create and maintain technical documentation including software designs, interface definitions, test procedures, and engineering reports.
  • Participate in Agile development activities, including sprint planning, peer reviews, and technical demonstrations.
  • Support software integration, verification, validation, and customer testing events.

Required Qualifications
Software Development
  • 2-5 years of experience for Software Engineer II or 5+ years for Software Engineer III.
  • Professional experience developing software using modern C++ (C++11, C++14, C++17, or newer).
  • Strong understanding of object-oriented design and software engineering principles.
  • Experience developing software in Linux environments.
  • Experience using Git, GitLab, or similar version control systems.
  • Experience with software debugging, profiling, and performance optimization.
Technical Skills
  • Experience developing real-time or near real-time software applications.
  • Knowledge of multi-threaded, distributed, or multi-processor systems.
  • Experience creating automated test solutions and software verification frameworks.
  • Strong analytical, mathematical, and problem-solving skills.
  • Experience using Python and/or MATLAB for algorithm development, prototyping, simulation, or data analysis.
Security
  • Active DoD Secret Clearance with the ability to maintain clearance.

Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience supporting AEGIS, SPY radar systems, missile defense systems, or other advanced sensor platforms.
  • Radar, signal processing, sensor fusion, tracking, or fire-control software experience.
  • Experience with GPU computing and CUDA development.
  • Experience working with large-scale defense systems and hardware/software integration.
  • Familiarity with Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE), DOORS, or requirements traceability processes.
  • Experience using Google Test, CTest, Jenkins, CI/CD pipelines, or similar automated testing tools.
  • Knowledge of networking, real-time operating systems, and high-performance computing architectures.
  • Prior military or defense industry experience.
