Software Engineer at Capstone Research Corporation in Redstone Arsenal, AL, USA

Job description

• Capstone Research Corporation is seeking to expand our team. We provide high level engineering to the Department of War with Integrated Air and Missile Defense Systems Engineering expertise to solve the tough interoperability problems facing Warfighters today. We pride ourselves on providing high level engineering in a customer-oriented, ethical approach. Capstone offers 100% Company Provided Medical and Dental Insurance as part of our top-notch benefits package. Compensation for this position will be determined, but not limited to, factors such as responsibilities of the job, education, experience, knowledge, skills, abilities, alignment with market data, and internal equity.
• We are seeking a Software Engineer with a background in developing and integrating weapon system simulations to join our rapidly growing Army Group. We have multiple vacancies for entry and mid-level developers ready to make an impact. In this role, you will be the technical engine behind our Joint Simulation Environment integration. You will develop, integrate, and execute complex simulations of Integrated Air and Missile Defense (IAMD) systems to evaluate end-to-end mission effectiveness under varied conditions.

Responsibilities

• Design, code, and test mathematical models and simulations of IAMD components (e.g., sensors, interceptors, and threat kinematics), including the development of new representations of weapon systems to integrate directly into the simulation framework.
• Integrate disparate, existing system models into both real-time (e.g., Hardware-in-the-Loop/Software-in-the-Loop) and non-real-time (constructive) simulation frameworks.
• Develop and maintain simulation data analysis toolsets.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Software Engineering or other STEM field
• 1 to 5 years of applied engineering experience, with a focus on modeling, simulation, and analytical tool development.
• Strong programming skills required to build and integrate engineering simulations (e.g., C++, Python, MATLAB/Simulink, or similar languages).
• Active Secret Clearance required, TS preferred, or eligible to gain a Secret clearance
• Experience in Python, Java, Matlab, Gitlab, and/or Linux.
• Integration Expertise: Proven ability to integrate models into larger simulation architectures, managing data exchange, simulation timing, and data collection pipelines for post-run analysis.
• Experience with Docker, Podman, or similar for containerizing M&S applications
• Experience with Army IAMD systems or Missile Defense Agency (MDA) architectures and platforms.
• Familiarity with the Joint Track Management Capability Bridge
• Experience with common DoD simulation frameworks such as AFSIM, FSI, DIS, or other environments.
