At PMAT, we work on mission critical systems that directly support the warfighter, designing, building, and securing modern digital capabilities across cloud, data, and software environments. Our teams tackle complex, real-world challenges where delivery matters more than theory, and innovation is driven by curiosity, collaboration, and purpose.
In this role, you’ll contribute to the Ship Self-Defense System (SSDS), working alongside experienced engineers to support software sustainment, troubleshoot operational issues, and deliver reliable software capabilities in support of the U.S. Navy.
About the role: The Ship Self-Defense System (SSDS) is the key integration and control element of the SSDS ICS for Carriers and Amphibious ships.
The Command & Control elements of Navy combat systems are open architecture, software-intensive systems that integrate the available sensors, weapons, and networks on each platform and across a netted force, managing detect-through-engagement capability for Air, Surface, Undersea, Strike, and Command and Control Warfare, including Naval Self-Defense, and support secondary mission areas, such as Mobility, Amphibious Warfare, and Fleet Support Operations (e.g., Search and Rescue).
PMAT is seeking a full-time entry-level Software Engineer to be a key contributor in maintaining legacy combat readiness and producing world-class software. The successful candidate is impact-focused, is passionate about learning company- and customer-driven guidelines and applying those within development processes, and will have experience and/or knowledge of software engineering principles and software development.
Responsibilities:
The Software Engineer, under the direction of a lead engineer(s), will support the program by performing a variety of duties, including testing, test procedure creation, and maintaining software environments and other duties as assigned.
About Us: PMAT is an innovative small business founded with a passion for developing forward-leaning solutions from exceptional people that increase the mission's capability. We focus on designing and building impactful digital solutions that utilize modern cloud, data, and software concepts. Our passion is working on complex and progressive challenges such as edge platform computing, containerizing legacy platforms, distributed data platforms, or heterogeneous data analysis.
We recruit, retain, and foster a team motivated to pursue passions, investigate new ways of doing things, and embody an innovative and entrepreneurial spirit. We believe in being curious about every element of a problem and experiment relentlessly. We foster continuous learning in an environment that encourages positive collaboration and expands our capabilities. We tap into collective intelligence, acknowledging that the most brilliant people may not be in the room. Above all else, we believe that delivering and demonstrating is more potent than a sheet of paper. We are passionate about mission-centric design and delivering effective capabilities to and for the warfighter.
Whether you’re an experienced engineer or just beginning your career, you’ll work alongside experts who are committed to solving mission-critical problems. If you’re passionate about using your skills to make a real difference, apply today and become part of a team that’s shaping the future of defense technology!
