Develop and implement software solutions for national security applications involving estimation theory, prediction, target tracking, analytics, and system resource management. Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to create maintainable code and APIs, using C++, Python, Java, Linux, containers, and related technologies. The role is primarily onsite in Woburn, Massachusetts and requires an active Top Secret clearance with SCI eligibility.

Develop, test, and deploy software for advanced real-time communications and networking systems. Responsibilities include rapid prototyping, operational system development, software integration, performance analysis, documentation, and collaboration with research teams. The role requires Linux-based development, networking knowledge, software testing expertise, and the ability to obtain a Top Secret security clearance.

Designs, simulates, integrates, tests, and verifies RF hardware systems for sensing, radar, and electronic warfare applications. Responsibilities include architecture development, performance analysis, trade studies, bench testing, calibration, over-the-air demonstrations, requirements verification, system documentation, and collaboration with signal processing teams. The role supports deployable prototype development in a research and development environment and requires eligibility for a Top Secret security clearance.

Develops advanced signal processing and machine learning algorithms for radar, RF sensing, and electronic warfare applications. The role involves customer engagement, system capability development, prototype demonstrations, subsystem requirements, technical leadership, proposal support, and collaboration with multidisciplinary engineering and research teams. The engineer will lead researchers and apply algorithms from mathematical derivation through testing and performance verification.

Develop and test software tools and digital models for emulating cyber-physical and embedded systems. Extend QEMU using C/C++ and Python, rehost firmware, model virtual devices across ARM and PPC architectures, integrate networked simulations, and validate emulator behavior against hardware and software artifacts. The role also supports reverse engineering, technical reporting, and briefings for national security applications.

Lead the design, integration, testing, and troubleshooting of high-speed digital circuit cards and electronic systems for radar, electronic warfare, and sensing prototypes. Responsibilities include architecture, interface and clocking definition, signal and power integrity analysis, simulation, documentation, supplier and government interaction, performance validation, and mentoring junior engineers. The role leads small multidisciplinary teams and supports field-deployable prototype development.

Lead Firmware Engineer developing FPGA and SoC designs for radar and electronic warfare systems. Responsibilities include translating system requirements into FPGA specifications, implementing and verifying designs through simulation and laboratory testing, supporting hardware integration and production transition, maintaining documentation and test plans, improving development processes, coordinating schedules and budgets, briefing stakeholders, and mentoring engineers. The role requires experience with Verilog or VHDL, Xilinx or Intel FPGA design flows, simulation tools, and eligibility for a Top Secret clearance.

Designs, implements, and operates integrated simulation testbeds for space and defense systems. Responsibilities include modeling algorithms and command-and-control systems, executing test plans, analyzing system performance, defining evaluation criteria, reporting findings, collaborating with research and software teams, briefing customers and executives, and supporting proposals. Requires technical experience in space defense, sensor systems, modeling and simulation, and scientific programming, plus eligibility for a Secret clearance.

Designs, develops, integrates, tests, and fields advanced RF hardware systems for defense applications.
