Top Tech Jobs & Startup Jobs

Develop, integrate, test, and deploy modern C++ software for real-time tactical and simulation applications supporting weapon system programs. Collaborate with engineering teams, stakeholders, end-users, and management on requirements, architecture, prototyping, verification, and iterative testing. Create test plans and cases, analyze performance and test data, document results, prepare reports, and participate in project reviews. The role is on-site in Dahlgren, Virginia and requires U.S. citizenship plus the ability to obtain and maintain an active Secret clearance.

Supports a weapon system program by analyzing program effectiveness, requirements, regulations, and operational information. Acts as a liaison among engineers, scientists, logistics, testers, and stakeholders; researches and refines technical materials; facilitates communication; prepares and edits reports, presentations, and technical documentation; and tracks documents through review and approval. The role requires an active Secret clearance, U.S. citizenship, strong Microsoft Office proficiency, and two to three years of professional experience.

Supports systems engineering for tactical fire control and weapon systems integrated with air, land, and sea platforms. Develops and decomposes requirements, assesses operational performance, creates MBSE models, supports design reviews and working groups, and develops solutions for software- and hardware-centric projects. Collaborates with customers, end-users, engineers, government agencies, contractors, and military personnel while documenting and communicating system plans, progress, and results.

Design and maintain relational and non-relational schemas, develop logical/physical data models, normalize and integrate structured and unstructured data, build ETL/ELT pipelines, define enterprise data ontology and mappings, tune performance, support metadata, data lineage, governance, and collaborate across teams to standardize data definitions.

Support design, requirements definition, and integration of a weapon control system. Develop MBSE models, attend design reviews and IPTs, work with stakeholders across engineering disciplines, assess performance, and produce system plans, requirements, and documentation. CONUS travel 1–2 weeks per month.

Lead enterprise data architecture and ontology development, design logical and physical data models, drive cross-system integration and data governance, define strategies for unstructured data, optimize performance and scalability, mentor database developers, and align stakeholders on enterprise-wide data standards.

Support weapon system rapid acquisition and tactical prototyping by performing systems engineering, risk and hazard analyses, requirements derivation and management, coordination with stakeholders, and guiding design/integration and iterative testing toward system accreditation.

Provide configuration management support for the Combat System Simulations program: CM planning, identification, control, status accounting, audits, data and repository management. Serve as meeting secretariat, track action items, generate CDRLs and monthly status reports, prepare IPR presentations, perform QA on configuration data, and develop/maintain SOPs and processes.

Design and develop custom PCBs and harnesses using ARM-based microcontrollers for Battle Management Systems. Create technical design packages and fabrication/assembly instructions, assist with troubleshooting, integration, and testing, and collaborate with electrical, mechanical, embedded software, and QA teams to meet performance and schedule requirements.
