The Position

Etegent is seeking a Software Engineer to help transition data exploitation algorithms from R&D into useable software to benefit our Department of Defense (DoD) and Intelligence Community (IC) customers. This opportunity will involve application software development from conceptualization and implementation to delivery and sustainment for DoD and IC user groups. This position is based in our Dayton office with some work performed on-site in our customers’ facilities.

The ideal candidate will have experience in all phases of the software development lifecycle, be detail oriented, and have a passion for creating software solutions to enhance the capabilities of others. Experience working on-site to support either AFRL or NASIC is preferable. The immediate focus will be working on projects in signal processing, algorithm efficiency, webstack, databasing, infrastructure and deployment.
