Job Description
Program Background

The Navy Maritime Maintenance Enterprise Solution (NMMES) is a comprehensive Information Technology (IT) toolset supporting NAVSEA's ship maintenance, overhaul, repair, and modernization operations across the U.S. Navyfleet. NMMES encompasses approximately 79 IT systems, applications, networks, and data centers serving over 51,000 users worldwide at Navy Shipyards (NSY), Intermediate Maintenance Facilities (IMF), Regional Maintenance Centers (RMC), Ship Repair Facilities, and Forward Deployed Regional MaintenanceCenters. The NMMES Technical Refresh (NMMES-TR) program focuses on modernizing these enterprise systems through agile development, DevSecOps practices, and cloud-based services to deliver enhanced capabilities to the fleet.

Position Summary

The Software Engineer applies systematic, disciplined, and quantifiable approaches to the development, operation, and maintenance of software systems within the NMMES enterprise. This position establishes software information and engineering requirements for complex systems that may contain millions of lines of code. The Software Engineer applies knowledge, tools, and methods across the full software development lifecycle-including requirements analysis, design, construction, testing, and maintenance-with the purpose of improving the reliability and maintainability of software systems. This role requires extensive experience and judgment to plan and accomplish goals, and may include leading and directing the work of other team members.

Key Responsibilities
Software Requirements and Design
  • Analyze and define software requirements based on user needs, system specifications, and business objectives
  • Establish software information and engineering requirements for complex enterprise systems
  • Design software solutions using systematic approaches that address scalability, performance, and maintainability
  • Develop software architecture and detailed design documentation following established standards
  • Apply software ergonomics principles to ensure usable and efficient software interfaces
  • Collaborate with systems engineers to integrate software components within larger system architectures
  • Participate in requirements reviews, design reviews, and technical interchange meetings
Software Construction and Development
  • Develop, code, and implement software applications using approved programming languages and frameworks
  • Apply disciplined software development processes regulated by organizational and DoD standards
  • Write clean, efficient, and well-documented code following coding standards and best practices
  • Implement software solutions that improve reliability and maintainability of enterprise systems
  • Utilize version control systems and configuration management tools to manage code repositories
  • Develop and maintain APIs, web services, and integration components
  • Apply DevSecOps practices including continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipelines
  • Perform code reviews and provide technical guidance to ensure code quality
Software Testing and Quality
  • Develop and execute unit tests, integration tests, and system tests for software components
  • Apply quantifiable approaches to measure and improve software quality
  • Collaborate with QA teams to support functional, regression, and performance testing
  • Identify and resolve software defects through debugging and root cause analysis
  • Implement automated testing frameworks to improve testing efficiency and coverage
  • Ensure software meets security requirements and complies with DoD cybersecurity standards
  • Support software accreditation and Authority to Operate (ATO) activities
Software Maintenance and Operations
  • Perform corrective, adaptive, perfective, and preventive software maintenance
  • Troubleshoot and resolve production issues in deployed software systems
  • Optimize software performance and implement enhancements based on user feedback
  • Maintain technical documentation including system specifications, user guides, and operational procedures
  • Support software deployments and releases across development, test, and production environments
  • Monitor system health and implement improvements to enhance system reliability
Technical Leadership and Collaboration
  • Apply extensive experience and judgment to plan and accomplish technical goals
  • May lead and direct the work of junior software engineers and developers
  • Relate software engineering disciplines to computer science, mathematics, and systems engineering
  • Collaborate with project management to estimate effort, identify risks, and track progress
  • Coordinate with quality management to ensure adherence to software quality standards
  • Mentor team members on software engineering best practices and emerging technologies
  • Participate in Agile/Scrum ceremonies including sprint planning, daily standups, and retrospectives
