• Collaborating with the team by participating in code reviews, direct collaboration, and open discussion of ongoing work.
• Contributing to the evolution of our software development practices and architecture.
• Actively engage in further development of your existing skill set.
• Develop various land, air, and naval vehicle system simulation models.
• Ensure relevant documentation and frameworks are kept up to date.
• Perform hardware/software integration tasks.
• Install software loads in preparation for hardware/software testing.
• Attempt re-create customer reported defects with the help of QA.
• Contributing to the evolution of our software development practices and architecture.
• Perform unit and integration testing of simulation models.
• Analyze, evaluate and resolve software issues and deficiencies by proposing high-level design and technical solutions to issues that arise by subject matter experts and customers.
• Create system testing documents.

What do you need to succeed?

Must have:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering or equivalent programming experience. 
• Great communication skills and ability to work effectively on shared projects with testers, and other developers.
