The Company

Vision Engineering Solutions, LLC serves the defense and aerospace industries with products and engineering services related to electro-optical (EO) tracking systems, and to the transmission and collection of optical data and imagery. We design, integrate, refurbish, and operate EO systems for a broad spectrum of applications, including free space optical communication, space launch support, space domain awareness, and DoD RDT&E programs. Vision Engineering Solutions, LLC is a Service-Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business established in 2011, and located in Merritt Island, Florida, just south of Kennedy Space Center. Our current and previous customers include Army PEO STRI, Army SMDC, NSWC Dahlgren, NIWC Pacific, Air Force SMC, AFRL, Lockheed Martin, and University of Central Florida. Vision provides competitive benefits through its relationship with ADP, the professional employment organization. Learn more about us at https://vision.engineering.

POSITION OVERVIEW

The Software Engineer will contribute to the development, testing, integration, and maintenance of Vision’s software products- Precision Mount Control System (PMCS), Clear2Fire®, Digital Video Recorder, Digital Video Player, and Digital Video Analyzer, meeting the unique needs of each customer, while reusing as much in-house technology as possible to stay competitive.

At Vision Engineering Solutions, our products are built in-house, from drivers, to custom middleware, to a clean dynamic web interface. We don’t simply integrate other products to build a solution. Because we use our own products, software engineers work closely with hardware engineers and technicians in determining requirements, as well as, the look, feel, and function of the system they are supporting. Software engineers get a better understanding of their hardware engineering counterparts and get to see the fruits of their labor early and up close as their software is integrated into Vision’s systems, tested, and used in operations. Finally, the wide variety of operations we conduct and support, along with the spectrum of technical knowledge and experience resident at Vision Engineering Solutions, provide regular opportunities for professional growth.

WHAT WE ARE DOING

Vision has an established reputation within the Department of Defense, having supported the Directed Energy Joint Transition Office (DE JTO), Army Space and Missile Defense Command, Naval Information Warfare Center (NIWC), and many other agencies. We support the Army PEO STRI with tracking system refurbishments and upgrades, designing and integrating optical communication systems for Air Force Research Laboratory and NIWC, developing a laser deconfliction for DE JTO, and supporting the Air Force with laser testing and laser subject matter expertise.

Additionally, we are well-positioned in the free space optical communication (lasercom) market to support ground-to-space communications. We will deliver an optical tracking systems for two lasercom ground stations, will be developing a transportable variant, and have the knowledge and experience to develop a shipboard version, as well. This position reports to the CEO for performance evaluations, and to the Lead Engineer for daily technical assignments. The Company is looking for a self-starting, versatile individual capable of integrating into a team and quickly learning new skills.
