Selected Interns or Co-op students will support object-oriented C++ software development in the following domains: space domain awareness (SDA), laser source generation and effects modeling, high power microwave systems modeling and simulation, computational electromagnetics (CEM), space systems modeling, atmospheric modeling, high performance computing (HPC), computer aided design (CAD) tools, image simulation, computer vision, image processing, artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and more.
The main requirements are that candidates be top-notch, responsible, self-motivated, honest, able to work well independently or in small teams, and be able to rapidly learn new languages, tools, and techniques as needed to meet mission requirements.
Applicants who convey a passion for developing quality code, through listed projects, a github link, or other software development experiences, will be given preference.
This is a paid cooperative/internship learning experience.
Minimum Requirements: Majoring in physics, math, electrical/mechanical/aerospace engineering, computer science, or any relevant scientific or engineering fieldAbility to implement, understand, and maintain mathematical and scientific software librariesSoftware development experience in C++ Must be available for full time employment within a year of completing this internshipU.S. citizen willing to undergo background investigation and perform some work at at government or customer sitesExperience in any of the following is a plus: Cross-platform software development on Linux and Windows3D graphics using OpenGL, Open Scene Graph, WebGLUser interface development with Qt, Java Swing, Material UISupercomputing, CUDA, OpenMP, MPI, threads, GPUImage processing, imagery analysis, computer vision, or computer aided design (CAD)Aerospace vehicles, orbital mechanics, electromagnetics, space domain awarenessModeling and simulation, including directed energyA representative sample of your code will be requested early in the evaluation process, e.g. something you've written for work, a school project, or for fun. It should be long enough to demonstrate your programming and software engineering skills.
