REQUIRED
• Secret Clearance
• Strong experience programming in C
• Programming on applications running on a Linux/Unix operating system
• Programming client-server, or software that runs on devices/hardware, or embedded software
• The candidate will have experience developing software structured to separate areas of concern (presentation, business logic, persistence).
• The ideal candidate would have experience working on DoD communications systems or Signals Intell (or even better would be EKMS type work)
• This is not web software, therefore a person to ramp up quickly would need to come from a client-server or embedded / hardware type environment Secondary Skills - Nice to Haves

Job Description
C Developer (mid and senior)
Secret Clearance required Hybrid – will work 1 day at the office 30 min technical phone interview, then 1 hour in-person interview onsite. • NGLD is a system being developed that will replace an existing system called Secure Key Loader (SKL). This is the software that runs on the encryption device and loads the encryption keys onto the communication systems in the field (think of a hard end laptop or mobile type device with client server software running on the hardware).
• Client is already two years into development. They will finish development over next 6 months and then move into testing, and then production / maintenance.
• The team is developing the software that will go on that hardware and building the UI software for those devices.
• The ideal candidate would have C , Qt, Python, as well as demand experience with DoD communications systems or Signals Intell (or even better would be EKMS type work) JOB DUTIES
• Cryptographic and Space-Based development initiatives performing programming in C
• Contributions include researching, designing, prototyping and developing solutions for cryptographic devices.
• These security-focused solutions enable the warfighters mission and safety.
• Activities include:
o Develop performant software in resource-constrained environments
o Perform full software development lifecycle, including design, development, testing / automation, and integration
o Develop interfaces to high assurance crypto modules

• Experience in design and implementation of user interfaces for embedded applications / mobile devices with cross-platform development tools and modern UI design (they use Qt for the UI development)
• Qt
• Python
• Experience developing software that runs on a mobile device (this will enable candidate to quickly pick up the type of development work they are doing on this program).
• Experience with UI / UX Development Frameworks (e.g., Qt, Android, AngularJS, Ionic, GWT, SmartGWT, Catch2, React, Node.js).
• Experience with various Software configuration management tools (e.g., Subversion, Git, GitLab, GitHub).
