This opportunity resides with Global Security (GS).Mission Technologies’ Global Security (GS) group comprises live, virtual, constructive (LVC) solutions; fleet sustainment; nuclear and environmental; and Australia business.

As a trusted partner to our military customers, HII designs, develops and operates the largest LVC enterprise that prepares warfighters for cross-domain battle. With advanced technologies to enable mission readiness, HII understands that preparation requires full coordination—not readiness in piece-parts.

For more than 40 years, the U.S. Navy has entrusted HII to maintain and modernize the vast majority of its fleet. With a holistic approach to life-cycle maritime defense systems—from small watercraft to submarines, surface combatants and aircraft carriers—HII ensures a high state of readiness.

HII supports the Department of Energy’s national security mission through the management and operation of its sites, as well as the safe cleanup of legacy waste across the country. HII meets clients’ toughest nuclear and environmental challenges.

Mission Technologies, a divison of HII, is seeking a Software Engineer 5 to serve as the senior technical lead for software development across the Navy Training Baseline (NTB) product line, including JSAF, JBUS, RAVE, ERM, MDS, NEXUS, JMAC, CS3, and ATD. This position provides consultative direction, long-range technical planning, and leadership for multidisciplinary development teams supporting the Navy Continuous Training Environment (NCTE).

The Software Engineer 5 is responsible for shaping advanced technical solutions, establishing software engineering standards, and guiding modernization efforts across NTB systems and architectures.

This role supports the Navy’s Live, Virtual, and Constructive training mission by leading the design, development, integration, and sustainment of modeling and simulation applications and distributed training systems. The engineer collaborates with internal teams, government stakeholders, and Fleet customers to ensure robust, scalable, and secure software capabilities aligned with evolving readiness requirements.

• Provide senior-level technical leadership and architectural oversight for NTB software systems, ensuring cohesive, interoperable solutions across JSAF, JBUS, RAVE, ERM, MDS, NEXUS, JMAC, CS3, and ATD.
• Lead the design, development, documentation, testing, and debugging of advanced applications software and distributed simulation systems containing complex logical and mathematical solutions.
• Define long range development roadmaps, modernization strategies, and technical execution plans for NTB products.
• Serve as a spokesperson and technical authority for NTB software engineering in discussions with government sponsors, Fleet users, and managerial leadership.
• Conduct multidisciplinary research and collaborate with hardware engineers, systems engineers, and modeling & simulation SMEs to evolve NCTE capabilities.
• Assess user needs, system performance gaps, and enterprise architecture constraints; develop innovative solutions to meet Navy training requirements.
• Guide development teams on programming techniques, coding standards, security requirements, automation strategies, and Dev Sec Ops  best practices.
• Ensure compliance with software standards, DISA STIGs, cyber requirements, and NCTE enterprise technical guidance.
• Drive integration and interoperability across LVC systems, including TENA, HLA, DIS, and C4I interfaces.
• Author or review technical reports, architecture documents, user guides, proposals, and briefings.
• Mentor junior and mid level engineers; foster cross-team collaboration and continuous improvement.
• Able to work in an office environment that is typical for advanced software engineering work.
  
  Some on-site support at NCTE facilities may be required.
