You will work as a leader of tightly knit Agile software teams to design, develop, and maintain software systems deployed in operational use.

• Deployment and Field Testing : Traveling to integration sites to deploy, test, and triage software in secure operational environments.

This role will take advantage of STR's flexible, hybrid environment – when the work does not require use of STR's or the customer's facilities, you are welcome to work remotely.
