What's the gig?

PEMDAS is looking for an experienced back-end software developer and engineer to join our remote team. You will be working on cutting edge platform avionics and control systems designed to automate the effectiveness of large unmanned aerial systems. You will work with a host of other teams in support of this work to include large companies and small ones, such as ours, PEMDAS Technologies and Innovations. Our company has a key role to automate these platforms capabilities. As I like to say to our team, we are NOT designing cereal boxes. We do important stuff.

You will be expected to follow typical software development processes. Our developers use Git version control, continually integrate their software updates with automated builds, follow Agile software development processes, fully document their code, and follow accepted code style standards. This position offers a wide range of creative freedom, but utilizing these best practices allows us to maintain structure, consistency, and high quality products.

As we are a remote team, you must have the discipline to manage your time while working from home.  Some travel will be required (<25%) in order to better coordinate implementation of complex solutions with our team and to facilitate demonstrations of our solutions to our government clients on site.
