Wright-Patterson AFB, OH | On-Site Active TS/SCI Required About OSAAVA Services OSAAVA Services is a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business supporting the U.S. Department of Defense across Space, Cybersecurity, Intelligence, and Information Technology.
Our teams deliver mission-critical engineering and technical expertise directly to government customers supporting national security. We're seeking a highly skilled Software Engineer to join our team supporting the National Air and Space Intelligence Center (NASIC) at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base.
This is not a traditional software development role. You'll help develop advanced software and algorithms that automate intelligence workflows, process complex sensor data, and support technical intelligence analysis for national security missions.

The work focuses on research, rapid prototyping, algorithm development, and transitioning capabilities into operational environments. What You'll Do As part of a multidisciplinary engineering team, you will: Design, develop, and maintain software solutions supporting automated intelligence analysis.

Research and develop algorithms for extracting information from Persistent Infrared (PIR) sensor data.
Build automated workflows that improve data processing, target identification, and object tracking.
Develop software to process large volumes of sensor and analytical data.
Create tools that characterize, discriminate, and track targets of interest.
Develop image-processing and feature-extraction algorithms.
Integrate software into existing Government analytical platforms.
Conduct software testing, validation, verification, and performance analysis.
Collaborate with Government engineers, intelligence analysts, and technical subject matter experts.
Produce technical documentation, software documentation, and source code supporting mission delivery.
Required Qualifications
Active Top Secret/SCI security clearance
U.S. Citizenship
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, or another STEM discipline
5+ years of professional software development experience
Strong Python programming skills
Experience developing production-quality software
Experience designing software algorithms
Experience working in Linux environments
Experience using Git or other version control systems
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills

Research & Development

Defense or Intelligence Community software development The Government also identifies experience with Persistent Infrared (PIR) extraction analysis, dynamic target and event analysis, automated PIR workflow development, and Python programming as highly desired for this effort.
What Success Looks Like Successful candidates are comfortable solving difficult technical problems rather than simply maintaining existing applications. You'll work closely with engineers and analysts to transform complex sensor data into automated workflows that improve intelligence production and mission effectiveness.
Why Join OSAAVA Services? At OSAAVA Services, you'll work directly alongside Government customers supporting real-world national security missions. Our engineers are trusted to solve challenging technical problems, contribute meaningful research and development, and build capabilities that directly support the Intelligence Community.

We invest in people who enjoy solving difficult problems, collaborating with highly technical teams, and making an immediate impact. Security Requirements
