Contract Navy Software Engineer information

What are some common challenges faced by contract Navy software engineers when working on defense projects?

Contract Navy Software Engineers often encounter unique challenges such as navigating strict security protocols, adapting to rapidly changing project requirements, and integrating new software with legacy naval systems. Collaboration with multidisciplinary teams—including military personnel and civilian contractors—requires clear communication and flexibility. Successfully managing these challenges not only ensures project success but also builds valuable experience for advancing to more senior or specialized defense engineering roles.

What is a contract Navy software engineer?

Contract Navy Software Engineers are professionals who work on a contractual basis to develop, maintain, and improve software systems used by the Navy. They are typically employed by private companies that have contracts with the Navy, rather than being enlisted military personnel. Their work can include creating embedded systems, cybersecurity solutions, data analysis platforms, or software for shipboard and shore-based operations. These engineers must meet specific security clearance requirements and often need to be familiar with Department of Defense (DoD) standards and protocols. Their contributions are critical to ensuring the reliability and security of Navy technology.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a contract Navy software engineer?

To thrive as a Contract Navy Software Engineer, you need expertise in software development, systems engineering, and a solid understanding of defense or military protocols, with at least a bachelor's degree in computer science or a related field. Familiarity with secure coding practices, DoD-approved development environments, and certifications such as Security+ or CISSP are typically required. Strong problem-solving abilities, attention to detail, and effective communication skills are crucial for collaborating on complex, mission-critical projects. These skills and qualifications ensure that software solutions are reliable, secure, and meet stringent Navy operational requirements.

Job description

JOB TITLE/TYPE:
Software Engineer, Junior
JOB SUMMARY
Are you looking for more than just a seat on a contract? Are you looking for more than just a seat on a contract? Are you tired of big-box defense contractors where your contributions get lost in layers of bureaucracy? At Skyline Scientific, your skills will shape the future.
Skyline Scientific is looking for a strong Python software engineer who is excited to work on machine learning-enabled sensor-data workflows, neural network training pipelines, automation tools, and algorithm development in support of national security missions. This role is ideal for someone who can do more than write assigned code. We are looking for someone who can understand a technical problem, design the software logic, build modular workflows, and work closely with sensor, data, and machine learning experts to turn complex technical concepts into usable tools.
You do not need to be the sensor expert on day one. You also do not need to be a machine learning research scientist. You do need to be a strong coder, a clear thinker, and someone who is excited to work with scientists and engineers to build software that supports simulation, training data workflows, automation, analysis, and operational decision-making.
We offer top-tier benefits, an entrepreneurial culture, and a tight-knit team of experts who are passionate about their craft. If you're looking for real engineering challenges, supportive leadership, and the ability to make a direct impact, this is the place for you.
This job opportunity is in Dayton, Ohio, and entails direct support to clients at Wright-Patterson AFB. Work may be performed in both Windows and Linux environments, including classified workspaces. Candidates must be comfortable working in secure customer environments.
Why Skyline Scientific?
  • Technical Mission Work: Build Python-based tools for sensor data, scientific data, training pipelines, simulation, automation, and mission analytics.
  • Small Expert Team: Work directly with scientists, sensor experts, machine learning specialists, and customers without excessive bureaucracy.
  • Industry-Leading Benefits: 15% employer 401(k) contribution with no employee contribution required, employer-paid healthcare, and one of the strongest benefits packages in the industry.

JOB RESPONSIBILITIES:
  • Develop and maintain Python-based software for scientific, analytical, simulation, automation, machine learning, and operational applications.
  • Work with sensor experts, scientists, machine learning specialists, and analysts to translate technical concepts into software requirements, logic trees, schematics, and executable workflows.
  • Create clear software architecture, block diagrams, code structure, and documentation so that tools can be maintained, extended, and transitioned to other users.
  • Test, integrate, troubleshoot, and optimize algorithms, data pipelines, machine learning-enabled tools, and software modules into deployable software packages.
  • Manage, maintain, and optimize Git repositories

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS:
  • Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics, Data Science, or a related STEM field. Equivalent technical experience may be considered.
  • 3+ years of algorithm development, scientific computing, machine learning workflow support, or related technical software experience.
  • Programming experience for software development, data processing, automation, analysis, or algorithm implementation.
  • Ability to work from technical requirements and create logical software architecture, workflows, and implementation plans.
  • Comfortable collaborating with subject matter experts to understand data, algorithms, mission needs, and technical constraints.
  • Familiarity with source control and development tools such as Git, GitLab, Bitbucket, Jira, Jenkins, or similar tools.
  • U.S. citizenship and ability to obtain and maintain a security clearance.
  • Willingness and ability to work in classified or secure customer environments.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS:
  • Active Top Secret, TS/SCI
  • Experience with machine learning workflows, neural network applications, training data preparation, data labeling, model evaluation, or ML-enabled analytics.
  • Experience with sensor data, scientific data, signal processing, image processing, simulation, modeling, or equivalent technical data workflows.
  • Experience developing software for simulation, modeling, data workflows, automation, mission analysis, or scientific/engineering applications.
  • Experience creating software architecture diagrams, workflow schematics, logic trees, or technical implementation plans.
  • Background in mathematics, engineering, physics, image science, electrical engineering, computer engineering, or scientific computing.
  • Experience using Git Repository
  • Experience integrating algorithms into existing software suites or operational workflows.
  • Experience supporting defense, intelligence, aerospace, scientific, engineering, or classified customer environments.
  • Self-motivated, adaptable, and comfortable learning new technical domains.

BENEFITS:
  • Attractive Salary
  • Paid Time Off (PTO): 25 days
  • Medical, Dental & Vision: Employer-Paid
  • Disability & Life Insurance Coverage
  • 401k:15% Employer Match (no contribution required)
  • Profit Sharing Options
  • Compressed Workweek Options
  • Annual Performance Bonus
  • Referral & Incentive Bonus Opportunities
