General Software Engineer

Job description

 # **About Us** ZeroMark builds AI-driven counter-drone systems that actually work in combat. No PowerPoints. No hype. Just field-proven technology that saves lives. We've doubled year-over-year for two straight years, winning contracts that prove what we've always known: real innovation happens in the dirt, not in conference rooms. Our systems transform standard weapons into AI-powered platforms that detect, track, and neutralize drone threats—because a $200 drone shouldn't require a million-dollar countermeasure. Here's what makes us different: ZeroMark operators don't build from behind screens. You'll validate tech from Blackhawk helicopters, train alongside Tier-1 units (who happen to be our coworkers), and test at legendary ranges from White Sands to the cliffs of Hawaii. When we say field-tested, we mean you'll shoot it, fly with it, and push it to failure. We don't tweet about changing the world—we're too busy actually doing it. **Watch us in action** [**here**](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1U9z2zG1nQBaMqX3pIMGM1Cn7mjaN3Pc8/view?usp=sharing). Dark humor required, thick skin recommended. If you want to make an actual impact—and have some unforgettable Tuesday afternoons along the way—let's talk. We're all about delivering practical, field-tested tech, not just theories. # **What You’ll Do** - Design, develop, test, and deploy robust and scalable software solutions for counter-drone systems. - Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including hardware engineers, data scientists, and subject matter experts, to define system requirements and architecture. - Implement algorithms for drone detection, tracking, identification, and mitigation. - Optimize software for real-time performance and resource efficiency in embedded and distributed environments. - Participate in code reviews, contribute to architectural discussions, and maintain high code quality standards. - Troubleshoot and debug software issues, ensuring system reliability and performance. - Stay up-to-date with emerging technologies and industry best practices in software development and counter-drone capabilities. # **What You’ll Need** - Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field. - Proven experience in software development, preferably in a defense, aerospace, or security-related domain. - Proficiency in one or more programming languages such as C++, Python, or Java. - Strong understanding of data structures, algorithms, and object-oriented design principles. - Experience with embedded systems, real-time operating systems (RTOS), or distributed systems is a plus. - Familiarity with signal processing, computer vision, or machine learning concepts is highly desirable. - Excellent problem-solving skills and a strong analytical mindset. - Ability to work effectively in a fast-paced, collaborative team environment. - U.S. citizenship is required due to government contract requirements. # **Bonus Points** - Experience with sensor integration (e.g., radar, optical, acoustic). - Knowledge of communication protocols and networking. - Familiarity with cybersecurity principles and secure coding practices. - Experience with Agile development methodologies. # **What We Offer** - Competitive salary, equity, and benefits package. - Opportunity to work on cutting-edge technology with a significant impact on national security. - A collaborative work environment that values innovation. - Professional development opportunities and career growth.
