Our Senior Software Engineers are intimately involved in the development of software code used for operation and support of the Navy’s command and control (C2) system to be used in real-world battlefield environments. Responsibilities will include writing, modifying, and adapting C2 code, and performing research on applications for hardware, software, and operating systems. Be part of the team that will shape the Navy’s C2 architecture for the future.

We are seeking individuals who provide an advanced level of experience and mentorship in the development and integration of software solutions. Project leadership positions are available, but not necessarily required. Our Senior Software Engineers responsibilities include review and preparation of engineering and technical analyses, reports, change proposals, and other technical documentation, but more importantly, successful candidates will apply engineering expertise to perform system integration, configuration management, quality assurance testing, or acquisition and resource management.

We are a company of innovative professionals thriving in a highly motivating work environment that fosters creativity and independent thinking. If you are a motivated individual with a desire to support our service men and women, now is a great time to join SOLUTE!

Why would you want to work at SOLUTE?

SOLUTE seeks out opportunities that allow our engineers to work with modern and innovative technologies on impactful projects. Our solutions are built for use in mission critical systems and often are subject to interesting and challenging constraints. For example, we often build solutions that must operate effectively in offline or difficult to reach environments while maintaining reproducibility, maintainability, and security.

What are some examples of work I could be a part of?

SOLUTE has been brought in to evaluate and rearchitect several major C2 systems for the Navy (surface, subsurface and air) for next generation capabilities. We are leveraging modern technologies such as containerization, distributed proxying, and dynamic service discovery to bring the very best technology to our nation’s defenses.

What are some key technologies you will work with?

The exact technical stack varies from solution to solution but, there are a few technologies we often reach for when exploring a new problem:

Linux is the most common development and deployment platform we encounter
Terraform is our go-to infrastructure automation tool
Ansible is the most common configuration management tool you will see
Git is the primary source control system we use for our projects
OpenShift/Kubernetes are our usual choices for container management
