Huntington Ingalls Industries, Mission Technologies Division (HII‑MT), is seeking multi-level Radar Software Engineers to join our growing software development team supporting advanced radar systems. Junior-level candidates will work under the mentorship of senior engineers to design, code, test, and integrate software components, gaining hands‑on experience with the full software development lifecycle while contributing to the creation of robust, real‑time software solutions.

More experienced Radar Software Engineers will contribute more independently across the entire lifecycle, including requirements analysis, evaluation of external vendor software, architectural design, implementation, integration, testing, deployment, and maintenance. These engineers will solve complex technical challenges, work with real‑time embedded systems, and collaborate in a cross‑functional environment. Together, these roles offer exceptional opportunities to grow your career while supporting mission‑critical radar capabilities.

This position is located at Wright Patterson Air Force Base (WPAFB), Ohio and is within a commutable distance from Beavercreek, Fairborn, Dayton, and Riverside.
