C++ Developer (Job Number:419908)
Description:
SAIC is currently looking for Mid-level Software Developers with C++ experience to work on the AMRDEC JBC-P project located in Huntsville, Alabama.
Joint Battle Command Platform (JBC-P) is a joint, digital, battle command information family of systems that provides integrated, on- the-move, timely, relevant Command and Control / Situational Awareness (C2/SA) information to tactical combat, combat support and combat service support commanders, leaders, and key C2 nodes.
JBC-P provides leaders a capability for selecting, managing, and assimilating relevant data and information. JBC-P allows commanders the ability to concentrate combat weapons system effects rather than combat forces, and enables units to become both more survivable and more lethal. The ability to pass orders and graphics provide the joint warfighter the capability to visualize the commander's intent and scheme of maneuver. JBC-P provides enhanced situational awareness of friendly, and reported enemy, neutral, and civilian entities (including reported international agencies and Non-Governmental Organizations). JBC-P provides command and control at the platform level across the Services enabling joint situational understanding and battlespace awareness. It affords joint warfighters the capability to gain and retain the tactical and operational initiative under all mission, enemy, terrain, troops, time and civilians (METT TC) conditions despite an accelerated tempo. JBC-P also contributes to the SA component of Combat Identification (CID) resulting in greater combat effectiveness and reduced fratricide. JBC-P is interoperable with joint C2 systems. The JBC-P system is a fielded system. The candidate will be working on Software that is being used by the warfighter every day.
Duties and Responsibilities:
- Provide software maintenance and test support for the JBC-P Program. This involves analyzing and fixing software problems in a Linux OS environment under the supervision of a senior developer.

- C++ software development
