Senior Software Engineer

Numericans excel at developing state-of-the art algorithms, software, and sensor systems that solve scientific problems with real-world applications. Working in small innovative teams, our scientists and engineers build solutions that make a difference. Our work doesn’t end once we’ve written a journal paper describing our technology; rather, our work is complete when our technology has been deployed in mission-critical systems, our customers are successful, and Americans can rest easy knowing our country’s interests are being defended at home and abroad. As science fiction writer Arthur Clarke wrote, “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.” Numerica is seeking talented “magicians” to join in our mission to expand the boundary of what’s possible for our customers and the nation.

• Help architect and implement cutting-edge distributed software systems running on cloud platforms using industry best practices
• Engage with our customers to understand their needs and ensure successful outcomes for their missions
• Effectively communicate with both colleagues and customers, so they understand what you’re doing and why

Compensation

The total annual compensation range for this role is $189,300 – $232,400, depending on relevant prior experience. In addition to base salary, the total annual compensation range includes an estimated cash bonus of 11% of salary and an estimated Numerica stock award of $50,000, both of which can vary with company and team performance. Numerica’s restricted stock plan, whereby employees in leadership roles can earn equity in the company, fosters an entrepreneurial culture by giving employees “skin in the game” at a thriving small business.
