The ACTIVE Lab is hiring a programmer/engineer a for full-time or part-time development position.

The programmer/engineer hired will be responsible for developing software to provide accessibility between live, virtual, and constructive simulation-based training environments that relate to unmanned vehicle systems and human performance with robotic teammates.  The specific tasks will include:
•    Enabling bi-directional communication between graphical simulations, numerical simulations, and performance measurement applications using the High Level Architecture (HLA)
•    Enabling bi-directional communication between numerical simulations and real and simulated unmanned systems for joint participation within simulations using HLA
•    Creating and modifying interfaces for simulated unmanned systems to interact with numerical simulations
•    Interfacing with simulated unmanned systems sensors through the Joint Architecture for Unmanned Systems (JAUS) 

The prospective candidate must be able to work at least 20 hours per week on-site at our research facilities in the Central Florida Research Park.  Extremely qualified candidates may be offered fellowships to defray the costs of tuition in addition to receiving salaried employment.

General Requirements:
•    U.S. citizen or permanent resident
•    Experience in software application development with C++
•    Experience using external software libraries
•    Ability to meet deadlines and work within a team
•    Willingness to perform tasks in multiple application areas

Experience in HLA/DIS development is beneficial (but not required) and may offset lack of requirements

A programming test will be administered and code samples are required.  Candidates with limited development experience (e.g. class project experience only) may be considered if they possess an exceptional grasp of C++ or C.

If interested, please send your resume via email to Dr. Larry Davis. In your email message, please use the subject title “ACTIVE Lab Researcher Candidate” followed by your last name. Inquiries will be accepted on a continuing basis.
