Seeking a part time (day shift) Software Engineer 3 to be the Scrum Master and do some development work in a small and exciting software development team. Does taking a new idea from concept to prototype in a quick development cycle appeal to your desire to create? Are you technically gifted, forward leaning, and capable of thinking outside the box? If so, this is the opportunity you have always wished existed! Our small team is looking for a talented software engineer to do big things. If you consider yourself an innovator, you already have the right mentality to help us accomplish significant and meaningful achievements that will revolutionize the way our organization operates.

As a Software Engineer 3 and Scrum Master, you will be responsible for developing, maintaining, and enhancing complex and diverse software systems based upon documented requirements. You will utilize software development and software design methodologies to build and conduct simulations in the test and development environment. Also, you will be required to provide specific input to the software components of system design to include hardware/software trade-offs, software reuse, use of Commercial Off-the-shelf (COTS)/Government Off-the-shelf (GOTS) in place of new development, and requirements analysis and synthesis from system level to individual software modules. Strong analytical troubleshooting and performance evaluation skills are of key importance. To be an effective team member, you must be capable of working independently when necessary, with strong communication skills, the ability to follow-through, stay motivated, and collaborate with others to successfully completing all assignments.
