Software Developers - Journeyman Devops (Ngts)

Position Background: The Modeling & Simulation Enterprise Applications (MSEA) product suite supports modeling and simulation (M&S) environments; trainer systems; test and evaluation (T&E); analysis; live, virtual and constructive (LVC); research and development (R&D) activities for DoD agencies and its international partners. All products are government owned, developed and managed. The Next Generation Threat System (NGTS) is a continually evolving synthetic environment generator that supports multiple platform/services training, testing, analysis and research and development.

Typical Day supporting the MSEA /NGTS team: You will be developing software for an advanced synthetic training environment. This software is integrated into flight simulators to support pilot training against potential threats. You will support software development, software integration, customer training and demonstrations Implements new and/or upgrade existing automated build services that support our development process on both Windows and Linux systems Scales up our capacity for and utilization of automated building and testing Facilitates and grow the amount of automated testing used by our team Monitors, maintains and reports on the status of automated build and test services Develops and integrate tools as needed to improve developer efficiency Promotes best practices and technologies to the team and to team leadership Collaborates with our IT team, maintain a strong security posture on our systemsEducation: BS in Computer Science or Computer Engineering.
