Software Engineer - Vulnerability Research Tools
Woburn, MASTR makes the world a safer place by developing technology and applying it to solve emerging national security challenges. Our Cyber Division develops the people, tools, and processes that put all the right bytes in all the wrong places. We strive for impact, craftsmanship, and teamwork while tackling our nation’s most demanding cyber problems.A
Software Engineer
at STR will engage as part of a multidisciplinary team of researchers and engineers dedicated to developing cutting-edge vulnerability research technologies. Candidates must have the qualifications necessary to obtain a Top-Secret clearance. Our work targets the boundary between the digital and physical worlds by creating models of physical systems, probing interfaces for weaknesses, and reverse engineering software.Duties will include:Working as part of a small team to design, develop, and test software applications and tools, in languages such as Python, Rust, and/or C++.Ensuring software quality through the practice of unit-level and system-level tests and verification.Integrating software components using networking/messaging technologies.Packaging software for ease of configuration control, delivery, and deployment.Communicating technical foundations of software designs and implementations through reports and presentations.Required skills:U.S. Citizen with the ability to obtain a Top Security (TS) Clearance.BS in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field with 5 years of experience (or MS and 3 years).Proficiency in at least one compiled and one scripting programming language.Familiarity with x86 Assembly Language, Operating Systems Internals, such as file systems/IO, memory management, device drivers, threading, compiler technologies (e.g., GCC, LLVM).Experience with software scripting and build automation tools (e.g., bash, make).Applied skills using collaborative source code management and software engineering tools (Git, Subversion, Gitlab).Desired Skills:Active Top Secret (TS) Security Clearance.Experience working on classified programs.Proficiency in Python, C, and C++.Experience with standard networking libraries, SQL/No-SQL databases, and message queue technologies (e.g., ZeroMQ, RabbitMQ).Familiarity with containers or virtual machine technologies such as Docker or QEMU.Understanding of common software vulnerabilities and secure programming principles.Experience with virtualization technologies (e.g., Docker, QEMU), network communications frameworks (e.g., TCP/IP sockets), unit test frameworks.Knowledge of static and dynamic analysis.STR is a growing technology company with locations near Boston, MA, Arlington, VA, near Dayton, OH, Melbourne, FL, and Carlsbad, CA. We specialize in advanced research and development for defense, intelligence, and national security in cyber, next generation sensors, radar, sonar, communications, and electronic warfare, and artificial intelligence algorithms and analytics to make sense of the complexity that is exploding around us.STR is committed to creating a collaborative learning environment that supports deep technical understanding and recognizes the contributions and achievements of all team members.
