We lead in chip design, verification, and IP integration, empowering the creation of high-performance silicon chips and software content.

You are a passionate and detail-oriented early-career engineer eager to make a real impact in high-tech software development. With a strong foundation in computer science or software engineering, you’re excited by the challenge of working on large-scale, technically sophisticated simulation platforms like Systems Tool Kit (STK), Orbit Determination Tool Kit (ODTK), and Behavior Execution Engine (BEE).

What You’ll Be Doing:

  • Designing, implementing, and executing functional, regression, performance, and API tests in both manual and automated environments.
  • Developing and maintaining automated test suites at the application and source-code levels to ensure comprehensive coverage.
  • Expanding and improving test coverage across a diverse set of features, platforms, and configurations.
  • Monitoring daily test results, analyzing failures, and conducting root cause analysis to drive product quality improvements.
  • Contributing to and maintaining shared test frameworks, infrastructure, and CI-driven quality processes.
  • Collaborating closely with software developers, QA engineers, and domain experts to ensure testability, reliability, and product excellence throughout the development lifecycle.

The Impact You Will Have:

  • Ensuring high-quality releases of complex simulation software critical to aerospace and engineering customers worldwide.
  • Increasing test automation and coverage to accelerate product development cycles and minimize release risk.
  • Identifying and resolving defects early, directly improving software reliability.
  • Enhancing CI/CD pipelines and test infrastructure, enabling faster feedback loops.
  • Collaborating with cross-disciplinary teams to build robust, scalable, and maintainable software solutions.

What You’ll Need:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Systems Engineering, or a related field.
  • Strong programming experience in Python, C#, and/or Java, with an ability to quickly learn new languages as needed.
  • Proficiency with scripting languages such as Perl, Bash, or PowerShell.
  • Solid understanding of software design principles, debugging, and analytical problem-solving techniques.
  • Experience working in both Windows and Linux environments.
  • Familiarity with automated test frameworks (e.g., NUnit, JUnit) and CI/CD pipelines is a plus.
  • Knowledge of software architecture, APIs, or distributed systems is beneficial.

Who You Are:

  • Collaborative team player who values open communication and mutual support.
  • Detail-oriented and organized, with a persistent drive for quality and process improvement.
  • Analytical thinker with strong troubleshooting and root cause analysis skills.
  • Adaptable, resilient, and eager to learn in a dynamic and evolving technical landscape.
  • Effective communicator, able to translate complex technical issues for diverse audiences.
  • Self-motivated and proactive, with a genuine passion for technology and innovation.

The Team You’ll Be A Part Of:

You’ll join a dynamic, multidisciplinary team dedicated to advancing STK (Systems Tool Kit), a commercial mission modeling software used by thousands worldwide. The team is composed of experts in communications, radar, software engineering, and mission analysis, collaborating closely to deliver impactful solutions to some of the most challenging problems in aerospace, defense, and beyond.
