RTX Corporation is an Aerospace and Defense company that provides advanced systems and services for commercial, military and government customers worldwide. It comprises three industry-leading businesses – Collins Aerospace Systems, Pratt & Whitney, and Raytheon. Its 185,000 employees enable the company to operate at the edge of known science as they imagine and deliver solutions that push the boundaries in quantum physics, electric propulsion, directed energy, hypersonics, avionics and cybersecurity.

The company, formed in 2020 through the combination of Raytheon Company and the United Technologies Corporation aerospace businesses, is headquartered in Arlington, VA.RTX BBN Networking and Cyber Technologies group is looking for a Research Software Engineer, Formal Methods with strong software development skills and an interest in security and resilience of large-scale dynamic systems. In this position, you will contribute strong software development skills and apply reasoning and formal methods techniques to significantly enhance security and resilience of large dynamic systems.

This position offers the opportunity to shine as a lead developer of an exceptional team while building core technologies for improving processes, networks, protocols, and systems. You will develop software to support models that analyze networks and complex processes, improve the collective understanding of such systems, and increase their performance. You will contribute to and work alongside extraordinarily talented individuals.
** What You Will Do
*** Program and test software and systems in Python, C, C++, or Java, as well as using logic programming languages.
* Design and develop formal (using mathematical logic) or informal models and specifications of protocols and systems.
* Develop algorithms for analyzing systems to understand how and when they work or break, and how to make them more secure and resilient. Working knowledge applying formal methods techniques such as model checking and theorem proving are highly desirable.
* Apply critical analyses to results to validate technical hypotheses and inform next steps.
* Advance network security research at BBN.
* Own projects or large components of projects.
