Numerica Corporation

Senior Software Engineer

Fort Collins, CO - Full Time

Numericans excel at developing state-of-the art algorithms, software, and sensor systems that solve scientific problems with real-world applications. Working in small innovative teams, our scientists and engineers build solutions that make a difference. Our work doesn’t end once we’ve written a journal paper describing our technology; rather, our work is complete when our technology has been deployed in mission-critical systems, our customers are successful, and Americans can rest easy knowing our country’s interests are being defended at home and abroad. As science fiction writer Arthur Clarke wrote, “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.” Numerica is seeking talented “magicians” to join in our mission to expand the boundary of what’s possible for our customers and the nation.

  • Collaborate with fellow engineers and scientists to build and deploy high-performance software spanning the spectrum from tactical systems to web applications
  • Help architect and implement cutting-edge distributed software systems running on cloud platforms using industry best practices
  • Engage with our customers to understand their needs and ensure successful outcomes for their missions
  • Effectively communicate with both colleagues and customers, so they understand what you’re doing and why

 Recommended Background and Experience

  • B.S., M.S., or Ph.D. in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Physics, or a closely related field, with a record of academic excellence.
  • 8+ years of work experience in the software engineering field, including demonstrated experience with:
    • Software development using multiple languages, such as Python and C/C++ 
    • Development on multiple operating systems, such as Linux and Windows
    • API development and familiarity with network protocols
    • Database-backed systems and architectures
    • Source control management tools, such as Git
  • Familiarity with the one or more of the following:
    • Sprint-based development and use of DevOps tools and mentality
    • Cloud computing architectures and services from vendors such as AWS, Azure, and GCP
    • NoSQL and SQL database and data technologies, such as MongoDB, PostgreSQL, big data, and machine learning
    • Web development and technologies such as AngularJS, Node.js, JavaScript, Python Dash, and full-stack web development
  • Effective written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to convey salient details about advanced technology in a compelling manner to both experts and non-experts alike.

Compensation

The total annual compensation range for this role is $189,300 – $232,400, depending on relevant prior experience. In addition to base salary, the total annual compensation range includes an estimated cash bonus of 11% of salary and an estimated Numerica stock award of $50,000, both of which can vary with company and team performance. Numerica’s restricted stock plan, whereby employees in leadership roles can earn equity in the company, fosters an entrepreneurial culture by giving employees “skin in the game” at a thriving small business.

U.S. Citizenship Required

Due to the nature of the work performed at Numerica, all applicants must be capable of obtaining a U.S. Security Clearance. At a minimum, this requires that a candidate be a U.S. citizen with a personal history indicating trustworthiness, reliability, and sound judgment (e.g., clean criminal record, no use of illegal drugs, etc.).

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability
Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability Form CC-305
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026
Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
