    • Proficiency in C/C++, Git/Gitlab (or other code repository management tooling)
    • Must have the ability to independently navigate source code, in order to correlate requirements, developed capabilities, and human interfaces for operations
    • Must be clearance eligible and ability to maintain an active Secret Clearance or higher
    • Willingness to work full-time in our Greenwood Village, CO office; this position does not support remote or hybrid work.

    • Experience with embedded Linux systems (drivers, networking, system-level debugging)
    • Knowledge of real-time systems and deterministic software design
    • Familiarity with CCSDS, DTN, or space communication protocols
    • Understanding of cybersecurity principles (secure boot, signing, key management)
