The posting

ENVENTION has an immediate need for several mid-level software engineers with strong C++ and real-time middleware experience to join our team supporting sensor integration and tracking capabilities for the Integrated Battle Command System (IBCS). This role offers the opportunity to contribute to a transformative air defense system that integrates advanced technologies to protect against modern threats. You’ll work on high-performance sensor processing software, collaborate across disciplines, and help develop solutions that shape the future of Army Air Defense.

This position isn’t just about handling sensor feeds; it’s about delivering precise composite tracking and Combat Identification (CID) to provide commanders with real-time tactical dominance.

Your Role and Responsibilities:

  • Develop Low-Latency C++ Software: Write, optimize, and maintain high-performance C++ applications operating within Linux environments.
  • Implement Middleware Messaging: Utilize Real-Time Innovations (RTI) DDS to manage high-throughput, low-latency publish/subscribe messaging across distributed nodes.
  • Process Sensor & Tracking Data: Develop algorithms to ingest, process, and correlate data from sensors such as Sentinel A3/A4 to maintain an accurate composite track picture.
  • Integrate Combat Identification (CID): Support the design and implementation of CID logic to ensure rapid and accurate threat discrimination.
  • Execute in SAFe/SCRUM: Collaborate in an Agile SAFe framework, using the Atlassian suite (Jira/Confluence) to plan, track, and complete software increments.
  • System Integration & Testing: Partner with cross-functional teams to integrate sensor software components with hardware interfaces and broader battle management nodes.

What You Bring:

  • C++ Proficiency: Strong object-oriented design and programming skills in modern C++ within Linux environments.
  • Middleware Knowledge: Understanding of real-time distributed data distribution, specifically RTI DDS.
  • Sensor & Track Processing Domain: Experience with sensor data handling, track correlation, composite tracking, or CID principles.
  • Agile Collaboration: Experience working within structured SAFe or SCRUM development workflows.
  • Problem-Solving Skills: Ability to troubleshoot complex real-time concurrency, data serialization, and network latency issues.

Why This Role is Unique:

  • Impact: Contribute to a program redefining how the U.S. Army conducts integrated air and missile defense.
  • Challenge: Solve demanding real-time processing challenges involving high-rate sensor streams and critical track picture accuracy.
  • Growth: Deepen your expertise in advanced sensor integration, military tracking algorithms, and real-time distributed software.
  • Teamwork: Work with talented engineers committed to solving problems that matter.

Why Join ENVENTION?

ENVENTION offers competitive benefits with a small company culture. We’re known for decades of experience delivering innovative technologies and software frameworks to customers within prominent DoD programs. One of our core values is “We do it right because we’re part of the fight” which is a testament to the mission-driven mindset behind everything we do.

Founded in 2010 by two experienced software architects from the Patriot air defense system, ENVENTION has grown to offer services in systems engineering, interoperability, user experience, testing, cybersecurity, and FPGA hardware design.

  • Experience working in Agile environments (SAFe/SCRUM) utilizing Atlassian tools.
  • Must be available to work full-time onsite in Huntsville, AL.
  • Active DoD Secret Clearance.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • 9+ years (7 years with a Master’s degree) of C++ software engineering experience.
  • Direct experience integrating air defense sensors such as Sentinel A3/A4 into composite tracking or IAMD system architectures.
  • Domain experience with Combat Identification (CID) algorithms and track management systems.
  • Strong technical writing and communication skills.
