Also includes working with cybersecurity engineering team to address ongoing sustainment of fielded software and firmware baselines comprised of Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS), Government Off-The-Shelf (GOTS), vendor provided, and contractor developed/maintained configuration items.
• Demonstrate experience developing software for one or more of the following areas of application: graphical user interface (GUI) or human-machine interface (HMI), embedded systems with emphasis on tactical/network/satellite communications, software-defined radios.
• Apply knowledge of agile development methodologies (e.g., Scrum, Kanban) and experience working with modern software development environments and tools for software configuration management (e.g., Git and source code branching strategies), issue management (e.g., Jira/GitLab/AzureDevOps).
• Assist in the development and integration of both existing and new software components and capabilities across the TIGS SoS.
• Work with the cross-functional agile team across the engineering lifecycle to assist with planning, development, integration, verification, and acceptance of software changes.
