Overview:

The Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI) is the nonprofit, applied research division of the Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech). Founded in 1934 as the Engineering Experiment Station, GTRI has grown to more than 2,900 employees, supporting eight laboratories in over 20 locations around the country and performing more than $940 million of problem‑solving research annually for government and industry. GTRI's renowned researchers combine science, engineering, economics, policy, and technical expertise to solve complex problems for the U.S. federal government, state, and industry.

Georgia Tech's mission is to develop leaders who advance technology and improve the human condition. The Institute has nine key values that are foundational to everything we do:

• Students are our top priority.
• We strive for excellence.
• We thrive on diversity.
• We celebrate collaboration.
• We champion innovation.
• We safeguard freedom of inquiry and expression.
• We nurture the wellbeing of our community.
• We act ethically.
• We are responsible stewards.

Over the next decade, Georgia Tech will become an example of inclusive innovation, a leading technological research university of unmatched scale, relentlessly committed to serving the public good; breaking new ground in addressing the biggest local, national, and global challenges and opportunities of our time; making technology broadly accessible; and developing exceptional, principled leaders from all backgrounds ready to produce novel ideas and create solutions with real human impact.

The Signals and Systems Division (SASD) in the Advanced Concepts Laboratory (ACL) seeks qualified candidates for the position of Software Engineer in the Software Engineering Branch in Atlanta, Georgia. The Software Engineering Branch provides software, Dev Sec Ops , and digital engineering expertise in support of modeling, simulation, and analysis (MS&A), and verification and validation (V&V).

SASD engages in research related to high‑impact, technical analysis for U.S. Government projects. The division's mission is to shape the development of next‑generation technical capabilities and strengthen our national defense through leading‑edge research and analytic support, informed by a deep knowledge of operational capabilities, current intelligence, and the related information environment.

ACL develops tailored solutions for a broad range of national security challenges through disciplined application of physics‑ and effects‑based modeling to realizable systems, augmented with prototype development and testing. ACL’s research thrusts extend across domains, and include bio‑, chemical‑, RF‑, and optical‑sensor physics; materials science and engineering; electromagnetic theory, computation, structures, and measurements; electronic warfare techniques and applications; operational scenario modeling and simulation;

traditional and asymmetric threat analysis; and ground maneuver warfare. SASD research engineers and scientists work on a variety of tasks, varying from project to project and depending on the individual's skills and interests.

Opportunity is provided to grow through learning experiences  types of tasks include:

• Development of revolutionary space systems technologies
• Analysis of alternatives
• Systems performance evaluation
• Requirements analysis
• Risk assessments
• Evaluation of test results
• System performance prediction

The Software Engineer designs, develops, and tests software applications and products. Additionally, the Software Engineer manages software development teams, provides technical leadership, and establishes software development lifecycle practices and processes. The Software Engineer is proficient in programming languages such as Java, JavaScript, C, C++, C#, Ruby, Python, Scala, and Groovy. In this role, the Software Engineer requires extensive knowledge of programming languages, software development, computer operating systems, Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD), Dev Ops, Application Programming Interface (API) development, container development, and distributed systems.
