Assist with developing and executing test procedures for software components
Write/review software and system documentation
Develop software solutions, confer with user or system engineers
Analyze systems flow, data usage and work process
Investigate problem areas
Serve as team lead at the level appropriate to the software development process being used on any particular project
Modify existing software to correct error, to adapt to new hardware, or to improve its performance
Design, develop and modify software systems, using scientific analysis and mathematical models to predict and measure outcome and consequences of design
Use signal processing algorithms to convert a signal
Design signal processing software based on sparse documentation
Lead one or more software development teams and ensure the work is completed in accordance with the constraints of the software development process being used on any particular project
Design/ implement complex signal processing algorithms requiring adherence to strict timing, system resource, or interface constraints
Perform quality control on products
Write software using C++ Java; suggest languages as needed to solve problems
Advanced understanding of the Linux operating system
Confer with system engineers and software engineers to derive software requirement and to obtain information on project limitations and capabilities, performance requirements and interfaces
Develop and maintain software framework to enable efficient processing of data
Identify the source of problems in a Radio Frequency (RF) processing system and associated systems in an enterprise architecture
Implement recommendation for improving documentation and software development process standards
Basic Qualifications
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or related discipline from an accredited college or university is required. At least seven (7) years' experience as a SSWE or equivalent on a project with a focus on Radio Frequency (RF) to include experience with Fourier transforms, filtering, communications theory, digital modulation, error control coding, signals analysis tools (e.g. WVT, DVT), and digital signal processing (e.g. adaptive beamforming/ filtering, demodulation). Four (4) years of additional SSWE or equivalent experience on projects with similar software processes may be substituted for a bachelor's degree.
Preferred Qualifications
Software defined radio architecture (e.g. SCA, REDHAWK, or GNU), commercial wireless standards geolocation techniques, software configuration management tools (e.g. GIT, Clearquest, Trac, or Subversion), Python, Eclipse IDE, Google Protocol Buffer, model-based design (e.g. Matlab, SlMULINK), service oriented architecture, and Linux OS.
