Job description

Description

The Computer Engineer III/IV architects, develops, integrates, and tests advanced hardware/software solutions for mission systems across NSWC Crane’s digital engineering portfolio. This senior engineer spans embedded processing, networked computing, and edge analytics, ensuring that designs meet requirements for performance, reliability, cybersecurity, and manufacturability from concept through production deployment. The role partners with systems engineering, manufacturing, logistics, and government IPT leads to mature prototypes, supervise build‑and‑install efforts, and drive continuous improvement across platforms and labs. This position is contingent upon award. Award is expected by the end of the year (2026).

Requirements

• Master’s degree in Computer Engineering, Electrical/Electronics Engineering, or Mathematics with a concentration in computer science.
• 7+ years of professional experience in computer design, software development, or computer networks, including responsibility for end‑to‑end integration and verification.
• Deep knowledge of computer architecture, embedded processing, interface protocols, and operating systems relevant to Navy/DoD mission computing.
• Proven ability to translate system requirements into robust hardware/software implementations, conduct trade studies, and manage risk across performance, schedule, and cost constraints.
• Experience supervising manufacturing or installation of computer systems and conducting formal verification/validation with government stakeholders.
• Familiarity with secure development practices, cybersecurity compliance (RMF/DoD guidelines), and documentation required for Navy accreditation packages.
• Excellent communication skills for leading design reviews, writing technical documentation, and briefing senior government leadership.
• Active DoD Secret clearance (or clearable to that level) required due to access to classified programs and facilities.
• Demonstrated leadership designing and fielding complex computer hardware/software systems for DoD platforms, preferably within NSWC Crane mission areas (EW, sensors, weapons, or expeditionary systems).
• Strong background in full‑lifespan digital engineering, including model‑based design, rapid prototyping, hardware‑in‑the‑loop testing, and configuration management.
• Hands‑on proficiency with modern programming languages (C/C++, Python, Java) and HDL/tool flows for FPGA or ASIC development, plus experience integrating COTS single‑board computers and networking hardware.
• Prior success coordinating manufacturing, installation, and sustainment activities with multi‑company teams, ensuring interface compliance and producibility.
