Critical infrastructure. Hazardous materials. The uninterrupted flow of energy that keeps modern life moving. Here, you’ll work with cybersecurity experts on the forefront of threat protection and proactive prevention. In this fast-paced, real-world environment, you’ll draw on all your education and experience as well as the resources of Lockheed Martin to keep the threats at bay. WHO WE ARE: We're revolutionizing the world of cyber with our cutting-edge program! As a key player on our team, you'll have the opportunity to contribute to the entire lifecycle of our collection and antenna systems, from analysis to sustainment. You'll be part of a dynamic team that's pushing the boundaries of what's possible in the field of cyber, and you'll have the chance to make a real impact on our customer's mission. Whether you're a seasoned expert or just starting out, you'll be part of a collaborative and innovative team that's passionate about staying ahead of the curve in the world of cyber. WHY JOIN US: Your Health, Your Wealth, Your Life Our flexible schedules, competitive pay and comprehensive benefits enable you to live a healthy, fulfilling life at and outside of work. We support our employees, so they can support our mission. THE WORK: As a Cyber RF Software Engineer Senior, my typical day is filled with excitement and energy as I tackle a variety of challenges and responsibilities. Each day as a team lead, I oversee one or more software development teams and ensure that our work is excellent and matches or exceeds the outline of the software development process being used on any particular project. I'm passionate about mentoring and guiding my team members, and I enjoy watching them grow and develop their skills. Usually each day includes consulting and analyzing user requirements and translating that information to build software design and performance requirements. I love digging into complex problems and finding creative solutions, and I'm always looking for ways to improve our software development process. When I'm not designing and coding new software or modifying existing code to add new features, I'm debugging existing software and correcting defects. I'm meticulous about my work, and I take pride in ensuring that our software is reliable and efficient. I also make recommendations for improving our documentation and software development process standards, because I believe that's essential to delivering high-quality products. I'm also responsible for integrating existing software into new or modified systems or operating environments, which requires a deep understanding of C++, K8, Python 3.0, GIT, and CI/CD pipeline. I'm super familiar with Agile Sprint Development methodologies, and I've worked on a range of projects that involve Digital Signal Processing and related RF technologies. #RMSROC #RMSIL2026 #OneLMHotJobs #LMCyber Basic Qualifications • Active US security clearance with polygraph (updated within the past 7 years). • Bachelor’s (or higher) degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field with a DSP focus from an accredited institution. - Equivalency: MS in Engineering/CS + 2 years experience OR 4 years DSP experience + high school diploma • Minimum 12 years of experience developing DSP algorithms on projects that follow established software processes. • Minimum 12 years of professional programming experience using C++, Linux, Python (or comparable languages).
