Software Engineer (Big Data)

We are seeking a motivated and experienced Software engineer to design, develop, and deliver automated system capabilities and big-data processing architectures.

This position is hands-on. The selected candidate will be responsible for implementing system solutions — from concept development through integration, deployment, and performance validation.

The role includes collaboration with multi-disciplinary engineering teams, customers, and program leadership to ensure solutions meet stakeholder requirements, security constraints, and technical performance objectives.

Responsibilities

• Define and implement architectures for automated systems and big-data ecosystems
• Develop automated data pipelines; perform data transformation, aggregation, and anomaly-detection tasks
• Architect and deliver local, distributed, and cloud-based data solutions
• Translate stakeholder needs into technical architectures, design specifications, and executable plans
• Design system technical standards and requirements across software, hardware, tools, and data platforms
• Implement proof-of-concept prototypes to validate design approaches
• Participate in design reviews and ensure compliance with engineering standards and cybersecurity controls
• Integrate AI/ML models into operational data flows
• Support test planning, system integration, and formal qualification events

Basic Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Systems Engineering, or related discipline (STEM)
• 5+ years of Software engineering experience with C#, C++ OR 2+ years experience with Rust

Desired Qualifications

• 5+ years experience in designing and implementing distributed system architectures (e.g. Shared Memory, GRPC, Sockets, REST)
• 2+ years working with big-data tools (eg Hadoop, Iceberg, Impala, Trino), or high-volume data pipelines (e.g. S3 protocol, SeaweedFS, MINIO)
• 5+ years experience with Python, Object Oriented Programming (OOP), Data Oriented Design (RUST), APIs, Design Patterns, Clean Architecture, and Test Driven Development
• Familiarity with Airborne Sensing/Tracking systems (e.g., Radar, Electronic Warfare, and/or Electro Optical).
