  • Research, test, build, and coordinate the conversion and/or integration of new products based on client requirements. 
  • Design and develop new software products or major enhancements to existing software. 
  • Address problems of systems integration, compatibility, and multiple platforms. 
  • Resolve problems with software and respond to suggestions for improvements and enhancements.
  • Participate in development of software user manuals. 
  • May support additional areas of the application as team needs change.
  • May analyze/design databases and/or assist in architecting cloud environments within an application area, working individually or coordinating as part of a team.  

Why This Role Matters:

The FAA is the cornerstone of aviation safety and innovation. As global air traffic grows and technology evolves, research scientists and advisors are essential to ensuring the United States remains at the forefront of aviation advancements. Your expertise will directly influence the safety of millions of passengers, improve operational efficiency, and guide the adoption of next-generation technologies.
