Job description

Relocation assistance may be available. Clearance required for start: No. Clearance type: Secret. Travel: Yes, 10% of the time.

We are seeking a LabVIEW Systems Engineer Level 3 with experience in LabVIEW, data acquisition, and signal processing to support development of a modular test platform for rotational machinery. You will join the Software and Performance Analysis team. This system will include multi‑channel data acquisition, synchronization/timing across high‑speed and low‑speed signals, and continuous acquisition and processing capabilities. The role will support the transition from a legacy multi‑tool environment to a unified LabVIEW‑based system.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain LabVIEW software modules for multi‑channel data acquisition, signal processing, and visualization.
• Implement and troubleshoot synchronized data acquisition systems, including timing and coordination across multiple data sources.
• Support development of continuous acquisition systems capable of recording and processing data without interruption.
• Integrate NI hardware (PXI / DAQ) with LabVIEW applications.
• Implement software functionality based on defined architecture and system requirements.
• Develop analysis, visualization, and diagnostic tools using MATLAB and Python, as needed.
• Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams across engineering, test, and manufacturing.
• Contribute to documentation, version control, and modern software development best practices.

Basic Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related STEM discipline with 5 years of relevant experience; or Master’s degree with 3 years of relevant experience.
• Experience with NI PXI, or similar DAQ hardware.
• Experience with timing and synchronization methods.
• Experience with large channel count systems (50+ channels preferred).
• Experience developing applications in LabVIEW.
• Experience with continuous data acquisition and streaming.
• Familiarity with signal processing fundamentals (FFT, filtering, frequency‑domain analysis).
• Experience supporting test, manufacturing, or factory acceptance environments.
• Hands‑on testing experience with accelerometers and microphones, including data acquisition and signal processing.
• US citizenship required.
• Ability to obtain and maintain Secret Clearance (preferred).

Preferred Qualifications

• Proficiency in MATLAB and Python for data processing, analysis, and visualization.
• Experience developing software for data processing and analysis.
• Strong interest in software development and automation for engineering applications.
• Familiarity with basic software engineering practices and version control (e.g., SVN, Git).
• Familiarity with engineering principles behind rotor dynamics, balancing, and acoustic data analysis.

Salary and Benefits

Primary level salary range: $114,000.00 - $171,000.00. Additional compensation may include overtime, shift differential, and discretionary bonuses.

Benefits include health insurance coverage, life and disability insurance, a savings plan, company‑paid holidays, and PTO.
