Remote Thread Roll Operator Jobs in Alabama (NOW HIRING)

Position Description:

Outpost Technologies is seeking a Software Engineer 2 to join our team. The ideal candidate will work with the Software Development team to build a new remote sensing application from the ground up. This includes live streaming of video and telemetry, real-time control of sensors, and a purpose-built UI optimized for operator efficiency and accuracy of data collection.

Position Responsibilities:

• Assist the software team in planning development and test activities, managing development life-cycle risks, and understanding the benefits of frequent internal releases (e.g., faster feedback, reduced integration issues, and improved adaptability)
• Apply critical thinking and broad expertise in modern computing issues to conduct effective peer reviews, provide constructive code criticism, and propose test techniques for verifying nominal code behavior and identifying failure modes through stress testing
• Demonstrate experience in formal, informal, and automated verification testing for highly reliable/available code, including writing automated tests beyond unit tests (e.g., integration and system-level tests), leveraging dependency inversion and mocking techniques
• Analyze system-level requirements to propose software designs and derive detailed software requirements that align with system goals
• Communicate clearly and effectively about software designs, implementation strategies, and test strategies within a small development team, fostering open discussions on technical and process issues to build consensus
• Design, code, and debug soft real-time systems, utilizing in-depth knowledge of:
  • Hardware operations (e.g., serial ports, PCI bus, Ethernet)
  • Hardware-OS interactions (e.g., UART HW FIFOs, ISRs, buffer management, HW configuration, Linux filesystem cache/flush timing)
  • Application-OS interactions (e.g., blocking vs. polling, multi-thread synchronization).
  • Optimization of CPU performance using event-driven designs instead of polling

Basic Qualifications:

• Must be a US Citizen
• Must possess an Active DoD Security Clearance: Secret Level or Higher
• Bachelor's or Master's Degree in relevant field (Electrical Engineering, Computer Science)
