Description

　　Leidos has an immediate opening for a Graphics Software Engineer, supporting multiple US Navy programs located in Newport RI. Leidos’ Maritime Division is responsible for developing and fielding software systems used by the US Navy and Leidos to collect, analyze and process oceanographic and bathymetric survey data. We are looking for an energetic, motivated, independent, self starter for a challenging position supporting a dynamic organization that develops and produces state of the art software and systems. This position requires US citizenship and the ability to obtain a DoD Secret security clearance. A current, active DoD Secret clearance is desired.

　　Candidate will develop software as part of a small, agile team creating ocean survey, collection and processing software.

This will include leveraging experience and subsequent training with ocean survey and survey data processing to improve Leidos software products via software development.

　　This code is used in a variety of US Navy and Leidos systems. Software is developed in both Windows and Linux environments, using various software packages. Software development will include design, code, unit test, integration test, verification and validation. Candidate will develop sophisticated, real-time software to enhance bathymetric survey capabilities. Work will include the development of new code and the maintenance and extension of existing code. A background in physics or mathematics is useful to implement physics-based enhancements, such as the integration of acoustic sensors. Any experience in marine systems or operations is a plus.
