About the role

You will implement engineering changes in C/C++ for sensor and sensor control software within an air surveillance environment. This involves collaborating with the engineering team to ensure high-quality code through rigorous testing, documentation, and version control.

What they look for

C++ C Unix Git Radar Interfaces Software Engineering Documentation Testing TCP/IP VPN VLAN Firewalls DNS Air Surveillance Sensor Control Real-time Systems

Requirements

The role requires solid experience in C/C++ development and Unix environments, along with a strong understanding of software engineering best practices. Experience with radar interfaces, real-time applications, and network troubleshooting is considered a significant advantage.

Full description

Radar data, real time, no room for sloppy code.

A multinational defence organisation in The Hague is implementing a set of engineering changeproposals in its air surveillance software - the passive sensor and sensor control components -and needs an experienced C/C++ developer to deliver them.

What you would be doing

Implementing engineering changes in C/C++ sensor and sensor control software on Unix
Applying sound engineering practice: version control in Git, testing and documentation
Working through interfaces with radar and other sensors, and the network side when it getsin the way
Collaborating closely with the wider engineering team

What you would bring

Solid experience developing software in C/C++, with Git
Good understanding of software engineering best practice, testing and documentation
Several years of Unix experience
A strong team player
A plus: real-time air domain applications (sensors, tactical data links, flight plans),radar interfaces, and network troubleshooting (TCP/IP, VPN, VLAN, firewalls, DNS)

Why this one is worth a look

It is real engineering on mission software with a clear scope, where good C++ is exactly whatis needed.
