Key Responsibilities

• Develop, implement, and optimize software components and algorithms supporting RF/SATCOM interference detection, characterization, and geolocation.
• Contribute to full-stack development (backend services, APIs, UI as needed) and automation scripts to improve reliability and operator workflow.
• Support software deployments on rack equipment: troubleshoot networking, service-to-service connectivity, and interfaces to hardware devices.
• Integrate and adapt software solutions within environments that include both legacy subsystems and newly developed services.
• Participate in system/software design activities and contribute to the evolving architecture of future BH increments.
• Perform software development lifecycle activities: requirements analysis, design, coding, unit/integration testing, debugging, and documentation.
• Support integration and test events across systems of diverse makeup (software services, networking, RF hardware, and external interfaces).
• Maintain awareness of current technology trends, tooling, and standards relevant to secure software delivery in RF/satcom environments.
