About the job
Join us in transforming how the Department of Defense (DoD) approaches multi-billion-dollar force design decisions. As a Senior Principal Software Engineer, you will integrate physics-based simulations, dynamic computing, and validated AI code generation to develop state-of-the-art wargaming platforms. We are looking for a proactive leader who can architect and develop a scalable, cloud-distributed simulation environment while motivating a small, dedicated team through hands-on leadership.
Your Responsibilities
- Design & Implement: Create a robust, interactive physics simulation that operates efficiently across cloud and on-premises clusters.
- Own the Core Codebase: Manage the modern C++ codebase, focusing on multi-threaded performance optimization and continuous integration practices.
- Collaborate: Work closely with product and AI teams to incorporate verified, AI-generated algorithms directly into a developer SDK for platform enhancement.
- Prototype & Iterate: Deliver functional capabilities to government end-users in weeks, not months, through rapid prototyping.
- Set Engineering Standards: Uphold high coding standards, document processes thoroughly, and mentor team members through code reviews and pair programming.
