JSE is a high‑fidelity, continuously evolving synthetic battlespace used for training, test, threat replication, analysis, and R&D across the Navy and joint forces. As part of an on‑site team supporting NAWCAD, you will design, enhance, and maintain critical software components used across the JSE ecosystem—including NGTS, DIADS, GRID, and other constructive and virtual simulation frameworks. This role is ideal for an experienced C++ engineer who enjoys solving complex technical problems, contributing to large‑scale simulation systems, and working closely with operators, engineers, and mission stakeholders. Impact Your work directly strengthens the Navy’s ability to train, test, and evaluate next‑generation capabilities in realistic multi‑domain environments. Your engineering contributions will improve simulation accuracy, system performance, interoperability, and threat representation used by aviators, analysts, and test organizations. You will play a key role in advancing JSE as a mission‑critical training and test environment for the Department of Defense. Key Responsibilities Design, develop, integrate, and maintain software modules for the JSE synthetic environment and related systems. Implement C++/C software features supporting constructive entities, threat systems, visualization components, and environmental behaviors. Evaluate and review C++ code, ensuring high-quality, scalable, and maintainable designs. Develop multi-threaded or parallel-processing components and inter‑process communication solutions. Use Git for daily development, including branching, merging, pull requests, and resolving conflicts. Work in Linux (Bash) and Windows environments; interac
