Assistant 3D Architectural Visualization Jobs in Colorado

We are seeking a Lead Software Engineer / Technical Program Manager to own both the technical architecture and program execution of the Multimode Threat Engagement Simulation Platform - a standalone, high-performance desktop application for defense mission planning. This is a dual-charter role: you are the technical authority for the software stack and the program manager accountable to the government customer for schedule, cost, and delivered capability.

What sets this role apart from a traditional software lead is the breadth of sensor and phenomenology domain knowledge required. The platform integrates physics-based models spanning RF/radar detection, electro-optical and infrared sensor performance and multi-sensor fusion into a single coherent mission analysis tool. You will work directly with RF and EO/IR engineers to translate their models into the software - which means you need enough domain fluency to review their work, design the right APIs, make informed trade-off decisions, and present results credibly to government customers who are subject matter experts in these disciplines.

Technical Leadership

• Own the end-to-end software architecture: Julia-based computation backend (trajectory simulation, orbital mechanics, Monte Carlo analysis, surrogate ML inference), React/TypeScript frontend with CesiumJS 3D geospatial visualization, and Electron desktop shell targeting Windows and Linux
• Make and document architecture decisions: data flow between physics backend and frontend, API contracts, mission data schema, CZML generation for Cesium time-dynamic animation, and cross-platform build pipeline (GitHub Actions, electron-builder, PackageCompiler.jl)
• Lead technical design reviews; review and approve all major pull requests; maintain code quality, test coverage, and documentation standards across the team
• Define performance requirements and validate that the computation backend meets them: Monte Carlo throughput, surrogate model inference latency (<1ms), trajectory integration accuracy vs. fidelity trade-offs
• Architect the integration layer for all sensor performance models - RF/radar, EO/IR, acoustic, and sensor fusion - ensuring the software framework correctly represents each sensor's measurement model, coordinate frame, and uncertainty characterization
• Evaluate and select third-party libraries, frameworks, and AI/ML tooling; maintain the technology roadmap
• Mentor and technically direct the Staff Software Engineers; conduct structured code reviews with explicit learning objectives

Program Management

• Own program execution: schedule, technical performance, and risk management; present status at monthly program reviews and government milestone events
• Serve as the primary technical point of contact for government sponsors, CORs, and prime contractor program offices
• Develop and maintain the program's technical roadmap, sprint backlog, and release plan; manage scope changes through a formal change control process
• Identify, track, and mitigate technical risks; maintain the risk register and drive mitigation actions to closure
• Coordinate with domain engineering leads (RF, EO/IR) on model delivery schedules, interface specifications, and V&V evidence packages
• Support proposal development: author technical volumes, basis of estimate (BOE) for software labor, and past performance write-ups for follow-on work
• Coordinate with the program security officer on RMF/ATO milestones for NIPR and SIPR deployment

Domain Integration

• Maintain working knowledge of RF/radar detection theory sufficient to architect and review the radar sensor model integration layer: range equation parameterization, RCS and clutter model interfaces, Pd/Pfa curve generation, and EW effects inputs
• Maintain working knowledge of EO/IR sensor performance modeling sufficient to design the EO/IR model API: NETD/NEFD, DRI range calculation interfaces, IR signature input formats, and probability-of-acquisition output schema
• Maintain working knowledge of multi-sensor fusion architecture sufficient to design the track fusion data model: state vector formats, covariance representation, association result schemas, and fused track confidence output
• Translate cross-domain analysis results into clear, non-technical language for government program offices and end-user briefings
