Northrop Grumman Space Systems – Launch and Missile Defense Systems has an exciting career opportunity for a Sr Principal Engineer Software – Algorithm SW Engineer (RA) to join our team of qualified, diverse individuals. This position will be located in Huntsville, AL.
Position Overview:
The Command and Control, Battle Management, and Communications (C2BMC) program integrates the Missile Defense System. It is a vital operational system that enables the U.S. president, secretary of defense, and combatant commanders at strategic, regional, and operational levels to systematically plan ballistic missile defense operations, to see the battle develop collectively, and to dynamically manage designated networked sensors and weapons systems to achieve global and regional mission objectives.
C2BMC supports a layered missile defense capability that enables an optimized response to threats of all ranges in all phases of flight. C2BMC is the force multiplier that globally and regionally networks integrate, synchronizing autonomous sensor and weapon systems and operations to optimize performance. C2BMC is integral to all system ground and flight tests, which verify and exercise all current and future missile defense system capabilities.
As a member of the Regional Applications Agile Release Train (ART) of the Missile Defense National Team for Command and Control, Battle Management, and Communications (C2BMC), this position will be a crucial contributor to the design and development of Java-based mathematical algorithms in support of the C2BMC. The candidate will help generate software design artifacts, implement Java-based software changes, support design and code reviews, support software testing, and resolve issues arising from software testing. The candidate will be involved in the presentation of developed designs and actively participate in agile planning and execution using established C2BMC processes.
Essential Functions:
Strong problem-solving skills include reviewing system behavior issues, identifying root causes, and recommending solutions.
Good verbal and written communication skills, ability to work independently, and the poise and flexibility required to work in a highly dynamic environment.
Must be able to work with multiple disciplinary teams, including Systems Engineering, Integration and Test, Deployment, and Warfighter Support, to help ensure mission success.
Good working knowledge of MS Office products.
Infrequent travel between Huntsville and Colorado development facilities may be required.
Basic Qualifications:
Bachelor’s Degree in a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics) discipline preferred from an accredited university and 8 years of related experience, or a Master’s degree in a STEM discipline and 6 years of experience, or a PhD and 4 years of experience, or 12 years of related experience in lieu of a degree may be considered.

Experienced in the
full life-cycle development
of complex mathematical algorithms such as:
Tracking
Correlation
Guidance
Battle management
Radar management for Java-based military applications
Experience developing software within an agile development process, decomposition of work, and active leadership during sprint planning.
Experience developing software in a structured, process-based, integrated team environment.
Experience developing software within a
DEVSECOPS
framework for
Java-based applications
in a
Unix/Linux
platform environment.
Experience with:
Git/GitLab
Eclipse
Maven/Gradle
SonarQube or similar toolsets
Experience with the development of automated unit tests and verification of requirements.
Experience with the review of system engineering artifacts such as:
ICDs
Use Cases
Sequence diagrams
Preparation of software design artifacts and presentation of design materials and test results to internal and external customers.
