The work environment is dynamic, with frequent interactions between team members.
This work may include, and is not limited to, designing and developing software and integrating custom and off-the-shelf hardware systems to accomplish the following goals:
Build and support dynamic, interactive experimental environments that support a militarily-relevant context. This may include both distributed virtual simulations that allow teams of participants to interact in a shared virtual environment, as well as real-world
simulations taking place on obstacle and cross-country courses outdoors.
Measure, store, and analyze the physiological state of experiment participants in these environments using custom and off-the-shelf sensors.
Design and develop phone and/or tablet-based apps to support further integration of participants into a simulation/environment.
Essential Job Functions:
Analyze customer objectives to derive system design and system interface specifications.
Work with research teams to customize software solutions for specific experimental objectives.
Perform software / hardware integration and maintenance.
Perform software component tests and system integration tests for adherence to specifications.
Recommend new technologies and novel approaches for complex system requirements.
Apply software best practices (version control, documentation, etc.) for all developed and modified software.
Requirements
Must be able to obtain a National Agency Check (NAC) clearance.
Due to the sensitivity of customer related requirements, U.S. Citizenship is required.
Bachelor's degree from an accredited college or university in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or Electrical Engineering.
Experience developing software in an object-oriented language (such as C++, Java, Python, etc.)
Experience with network (sockets) programming and networking in general.
Experience with a version control system (Git, CVS, Subversion, etc.).
Experience developing for Arduino or similar platform.
Successful candidates will be highly motivated and team-oriented.
This position will occasionally require working outdoors to support development and testing of experimental scenarios on outdoor courses and may require travel to other sites.

Don't Be Fooled

The fraudster will send a check to the victim who has accepted a job. The check can be for multiple reasons such as signing bonus, supplies, etc. The victim will be instructed to deposit the check and use the money for any of these reasons and then instructed to send the remaining funds to the fraudster. The check will bounce and the victim is left responsible.
