Top Tech Jobs & Startup Jobs in Boston, MA

Design, develop, implement, integrate, and test real-time communications software, primarily in C++. Define software architectures, protocols, and state machines; collaborate with multidisciplinary teams; support laboratory and field experiments; optimize algorithms and performance; and prepare technical documentation. The role supports large-scale communications demonstrations and advanced laser communication systems for national security and space defense applications.

Design and analyze SATCOM communication systems: develop baseband link and channel models, create system performance analyses, and process/interpret hardware test data to support link establishment and closure.

Design and analyze SATCOM communication systems: develop baseband link and channel models, build system performance analysis models, implement signal-processing algorithms for link establishment/closure, and process/analyze hardware test data to validate system performance.

Develop networking software for simulation, support software-defined networking, and manage infrastructure using Kubernetes in a collaborative environment.

Design and model mechanical components and mounts for optical elements, create detailed fabrication/assembly drawings, develop assembly and test procedures, support subsystem integration and testing, lead design concepts and trade studies, evaluate risks and mitigation strategies, collaborate with engineers and technicians, and present technical results. Prior spaceflight/NASA experience supported.

Design, develop, test, and operate guidance, navigation, and control (GNC) systems. Support flight software integration, telemetry analysis, real-time mission operations, anomaly resolution, verification in simulation/HIL labs, and develop operational procedures and operator tools.

Manage scheduling of spacecraft communications via NASA Deep Space Network: generate R&CL requirements, create schedules in SSS, resolve conflicts, maintain flight view periods, coordinate with JPL/DSN stakeholders, produce reports and plots, and operate CAST/SPS tools while supporting proposals and process improvements.

Lead technical solution development and strategy for complex defense, intelligence, and space pursuits. Shape customer requirements, produce proposal technical volumes and BOEs, apply MBSE/Digital Engineering, DevSecOps, cloud and cybersecurity practices, mentor teams, and support RFIs and customer engagement to win mission-focused programs.
