We seek motivated engineers who thrive in collaborative, fast-paced environments and who want opportunities to contribute to multiple projects over time.

Position Overview
IERUS is seeking a Software Engineer with strong C/C++ skills to support development, integration, and testing of systems for defense applications. This role will focus on National Instruments (NI) environments for test and control software, with opportunities to expand into other projects as business needs evolve. While LabWindows/CVI and LabVIEW are highly relevant, engineers with solid C/C++ backgrounds can learn these tools on the job.

This position requires periodic travel to Valley Forge, PA (up to 50% during contract execution).

Responsibilities

• Design, develop, integrate, and maintain C/C++ applications for test, control, and data acquisition systems.
• Support development in National Instruments environments including LabWindows/CVI and LabVIEW.
• Contribute to system verification, validation, and hardware-in-the-loop testing.
• Perform software design, coding, debugging, documentation, and unit testing.
• Collaborate with hardware, FPGA, and embedded engineers to support cross-disciplinary efforts.
• Participate in peer reviews and ensure adherence to coding standards.
• Support the transition of software into integration, operational, and sustainment phases

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or related field.
• 2+ years of professional experience with C/C++.
• U.S. Citizenship
• Active Secret clearance.
• Familiarity with Git and modern configuration management practices.
• Strong problem-solving, communication, and teamwork skills.

Desired Qualifications

• Experience with LabWindows/CVI or LabVIEW (National Instruments products).
• Background in FPGA development and hardware description languages (HDLs) such as Verilog or VHDL.
• Experience with embedded software development and real-time systems.
• Exposure to automated test equipment and hardware-in-the-loop environments.
• Familiarity with Agile development practices and task tracking tools such as Jira.
• Ability to support multiple projects and adapt quickly to new challenges.
