Enterprise OPIR Solution (EOS) Integration/Software Engineer

Radiance Technologies, a 100% employee-owned company, is seeking candidates for an EOS Integration Engineer to support the U.S. Space Force Enterprise OPIR Solution (EOS) program.

Space Systems Command has been tasked to acquire the Future Operationally Resilient Ground Evolution (FORGE) system, a modern and resilient ground system that is being built to support the Next-Generation Overhead Persistent Infrared (Next-Gen OPIR) program and continued operations of legacy Space Based Infrared System (SBIRS) capabilities. The final FORGE solution is being developed through three major thrust areas: FORGE Mission Data Processing (MDP), FORGE Command & Control (FC2), and Relay Ground Stations (RGS). The MDP thrust currently contains three projects: 1) Mission Data Processing Application Framework (MDPAF), 2) Mission Data Processing Application Provider (MDPAP), and 3) Legacy SBIRS Sensor Specific Processing (SSP). Space Systems Command is seeking to continue advancement and add capabilities to the existing FORGE MDPAF solution via the Enterprise OPIR Solution (EOS) project. EOS will be a foundational FORGE prototype capability that will ultimately lead to the fielding of a fully operational MDP capability.

EOS will be a critical piece of the U.S. Space Force’s missile warning mission. To provide a modular, extensible, and operationally resilient ground processing capability, EOS will need to be developed in a cyber-secure fashion that meets EOS requirements and include a technical baseline that is Government-owned. In addition, the EOS solution will be required to integrate capabilities that are provided by other contractors (including both FORGE programs and efforts external to the FORGE program).
