Job description

Radar data, real time, no room for sloppy code.

A multinational defence organisation in The Hague is implementing a set of engineering change proposals in its air surveillance software - the passive sensor and sensor control components - and needs an experienced C/C++ developer to deliver them.

What You Would Be Doing

• Implementing engineering changes in C/C++ sensor and sensor control software on Unix


• Applying sound engineering practice: version control in Git, testing and documentation


• Working through interfaces with radar and other sensors, and the network side when it gets in the way


• Collaborating closely with the wider engineering team

What you would bring

• Solid experience developing software in C/C++, with Git


• Good understanding of software engineering best practice, testing and documentation


• Several years of Unix experience


• A strong team player


• A plus: real-time air domain applications (sensors, tactical data links, flight plans), radar interfaces, and network troubleshooting (TCP/IP, VPN, VLAN, firewalls, DNS)

Why this one is worth a look

It is real engineering on mission software with a clear scope, where good C++ is exactly what is needed.
