Software Engineer
Raytheon's Radar Digital Product Line (RDPL) team in Fullerton, California, is growing - and we are looking for software engineers who want their work to matter. In this role, you'll help build the real-time C++ software that powers some of the world's most advanced radar systems, technology relied on to protect service members and give our nation and allies a decisive edge. This is engineering with purpose: every line of code strengthens our ability to detect threats, defend freedoms, and stay ahead of emerging challenges. If you're inspired by mission-driven work and energized by solving complex technical problems with a collaborative team, this is where your expertise can make a lasting impact.
What you will do:
- Collaborate with scrum teams to design, develop, test, and troubleshoot radar software solutions.
- Assist in the requirements, design, development, and testing of real-time embedded software, application software, and tools.
- Contribute to the development of new work products or enhance existing applications and systems.
- Design, code, test, integrate, and document software solutions in C++ and object-oriented design (OOD).
- Participate in technical reviews of software components and systems.
- Follow established agile/scrum development practices and processes to maintain the configuration management of software products.
- Occasional travel (up to 10%) to radar installations to help with testing, integration, or troubleshooting.
Qualifications you must have:
- The ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. government issued secret security clearance is required. U.S. citizenship is required, as only U.S. citizens are eligible for a security clearance.
- Typically requires a degree in science, technology, engineering or mathematics (STEM) and a minimum of 2 years of prior relevant experience.
- Design, develop, test, and maintain C++ software for embedded linux and real-time environments.
- Experience with agile/SCRUM, DevOps, Jira, Jenkins, and version control systems.
Qualifications we prefer:
- Experience with radar systems or other real-time embedded systems.
- Knowledge of data structures, algorithms, and real-time embedded systems.
- Experience with digital signal processing (DSP)
- Experience with scripting languages (Python, Perl, or Bash) for automation and testing.
- Experience of agile/SCRUM teams and DevOps practices.
What we offer:
Our values drive our actions, behaviors, and performance with a vision for a safer, more connected world. At RTX we value: trust, respect, accountability, collaboration, innovation, and safety.
