LabVIEW Developer

Job Description

As a LabVIEW Developer on the AMS Systems Team, you will play a key role in creating the customized software and systems that power AMS’s industry‑leading testing and measurement services. Working at the intersection of software and hardware design, data acquisition, and nuclear safety engineering, you will design, build, and maintain purpose‑built LabVIEW applications used by AMS field teams and external customers around the world.

Your contributions will directly enable the safe, reliable operation of nuclear facilities by supporting critical sensor testing, diagnostics, and measurement technologies deployed in the field. This role is ideal for developers who are energized by hands‑on engineering, complex technical challenges, and building tools that have real‑world impact on nuclear safety.

• Design, develop, and maintain LabVIEW‑based data acquisition and measurement systems supporting AMS testing equipment and field measurement platforms.
• Build and optimize database interfaces and data analysis algorithms to ensure accurate, reliable processing of measurement data.
• Collaborate with hardware, systems, and field engineers to translate test requirements and instrumentation needs into effective software solutions.
• Perform software verification and validation (V&V) to confirm functionality, performance, and compliance with AMS quality standards.
• Support research and development efforts to prototype new test equipment, measurement capabilities, and technology enhancements.
• Troubleshoot and resolve software and system issues, providing timely support to field operations and internal teams.
• Prepare clear technical documentation and reports summarizing system design, data analysis, and project results.
• Assist with deployment and integration of new tools and applications into AMS field workflows and customer environments.

• Organized and disciplined; comfortable with version control, issue tracking, and structured engineering workflows in regulated, safety‑critical environments.
• Collaborative team player who works well with peers and leadership; experienced in or open to structured engineering environments with defined processes, documentation practices, and quality requirements.
• Independent problem solver who balances confident ownership of your work with knowing when to ask for guidance; comfortable taking initiative while remaining accountable to team standards, processes, and quality assurance practices.
• Self‑motivated and detail‑oriented; demonstrates genuine commitment to quality and accuracy, and understands the critical importance of your work to nuclear power plant safety and public well‑being.

• Bachelor’s Degree from a reputable undergraduate institution, ideally in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical discipline.
• Demonstrated, substantive experience developing, maintaining, or enhancing applications in LabVIEW (beyond introductory or classroom‑only exposure).
• Experience working with data acquisition, test and measurement systems, or instrumentation (e.g., National Instruments / NI‑based hardware platforms) is strongly preferred.
• Experience working with instrumentation (e.g., temperature, pressure, flow sensors) is strongly preferred.
• This position involves work under U.S. Department of Energy contracts and requires access to nuclear facilities. As a result, U.S. citizenship is required to meet federal compliance and security‑access regulations.

• Health Coverage – Generous employer contributions toward comprehensive health, dental, vision, life, and disability insurance.
• Retirement – 401(k) with generous employer matching contributions.
• Paid Time Off – Four weeks annual vacation plus at least 10 paid holidays per year.
• Professional Development – AMS is committed to your growth as a technical specialist; mentorship by senior engineers and PhDs, access to professional conferences, and continuing education in nuclear engineering and advanced analysis.
• Career Growth – Annual salary reviews, raises, and advancement opportunities within a fast‑paced, team‑oriented, mission‑driven organization.
