Test Engineer

The Opportunity

When a user tries new software, they expect it to be intuitive and run smoothly. Functionality, reliability, and user experience are key to successful software development—and that means rigorous testing. That’s why we need you, an experienced test engineer who knows how to thoroughly test software and work with developers to make sure our team releases the best software possible.

As a test engineer on our team, you will provide test engineering support to develop and document data analysis requirements to satisfy test objectives for national defense. You’ll support the development of test plans for flight test and lab calibration tests, including the design, development, and implementation of complex calculations in support of test objectives. You’ll use your experience to work with test facility personnel to maintain test readiness in support of real‑time data display and recording and troubleshoot test data issues before, during, and after test activities.

Working with government clients, you’ll coordinate with instrumentation and software programming personnel for problem fixes and new installation and development. You’ll analyze recorded and calculated test data and assess it for quality prior to release to data end‑users.

This is an opportunity to supercharge your skills and apply extensive technical expertise and full industry knowledge. You’ll also broaden your experience as you develop innovative solutions to complex problems and work independently with minimal direction.

Work with us as we test and develop solutions to improve our nation’s critical defense programs. Join us. The world can’t wait.
