Desirable

• True Anomaly is seeking a highly experienced C++ Software Engineer to contribute to the continuing evolution of our complex spacecraft modeling and simulation software
• The C++ software engineer would be particularly responsible for developing core functions and APIs that enable the simulation of space vehicle propagation, electronic operation, maneuvering, state estimation, communication, and other crucial functions of a spacecraft
• You’ll have ownership of challenging, greenfield problems and a chance to fundamentally impact the outcome of future conflict (and the future of the company), all while enjoying world-class benefits including platinum healthcare, flexible work hours/location, highly competitive compensation and a generous stock options package
• Design, implement, and test software for simulating the propagation and operation of space vehicles using modern C++ (C++17 / C++20)
• Maintain C and Python APIs that are used by other backend and frontend teams to expose complex calculations as part of the MOSAIC application
• Conduct analyses of performance, quality, and adherence to standard using benchmarks, sanitizers, code formatters, and other capabilities provided by CMake, GCC, Clang, and other tools
• Collaborate with other internal teams who leverage our simulation APIs to plan and execute missions, develop advanced algorithms for spacecraft operation, and perform tradespace analyses
• Participate in code reviews, architectural discussions, and sprint planning sessions to maintain high standards of software quality and adherence to project timelines
• Contribute to research and development initiatives aimed at advancing the state-of-the-art in autonomous space systems and their applications in military and civilian contexts

• This position will be open until it is successfully filled
