- B.S., M.S., or Ph.D. in an engineering discipline; Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics, or Engineering.
- Security+ or equivalent/higher is required.
- Recent experience in software architecture and distributed systems design and implementation.
- Experience performing trade studies and analysis across software engineering disciplines.
- Familiarity with the system engineering discipline including Model Based System Engineering (MBSE) and Object Oriented Analysis and Design (OOA/OOD)
- Hands on application development experience with Java is required.
- CI/CD pipeline experience required.
- Automated test development experience required.
- Familiarity with Information Assurance (IA) mitigations for RMF and STIGs is required.
- Familiarity with Fortify/SonarQube required.
- Skills in logical/physical architecture modeling, and knowledge of CI/CD pipeline architecture and implementation, Safety, and cyber security concepts are highly desirable.
- Previous experience with Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) or Event Driven Architecture (EDA), cloud computing, micro-services, use of containerization, virtualization, and how to approach refactoring existing code bases into those paradigms is a plus.
- Must have Final DoD Secret to start and may require ability to get cleared to TS/SCI in the future.
- Full life cycle software development experience using Java, and UML
- Previous experience with missile defense, command and control and software architecture required.
- Proficiency with MS Office and Visio are required.
- Architecture development and coordination
- Defining the relationships between internal and external components; communicating architectural intent and constraints to a diverse group of customers, developers, engineers, subject matter experts, and users.

What We Do
IERUS, at its core, is a high-end technology firm. IERUS recruits and retains a work force of highly skilled and educated engineers, scientists, and mathematicians. While IERUS’s core is electro-optics/infra-red (EOIR) and electromagnetic (EM) technology, IERUS engineers come from various backgrounds. IERUS employees are our most valuable asset, and we are committed to recruiting high caliber personnel. IERUS emphasizes creativity and fosters an environment that encourages employees to pursue technically challenging problems that fit within their interest and capability set. IERUS’s work force education ranges from bachelors through PhDs, specializing in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Physics, and Math. Approximately one quarter of IERUS’s technical staff have PhDs, over three quarters hold a Masters level degree or above, and the remaining have bachelors engineering degrees. This spread means IERUS can apply in-depth technical leadership where needed but has the labor distribution base to solve problems cost efficiently.
