Program Background

The Navy Maritime Maintenance
Enterprise Solution (NMMES) is a comprehensive Information Technology (IT)
toolset supporting NAVSEA's ship maintenance, overhaul, repair, and
modernization operations across the U.S. Navy fleet. NMMES encompasses
approximately 79 IT systems, applications, networks, and data centers serving
over 51,000 users worldwide at Navy Shipyards (NSY), Intermediate Maintenance
Facilities (IMF), Regional Maintenance Centers (RMC), Ship Repair Facilities,
and Forward Deployed Regional Maintenance Centers. The NMMES Technical Refresh
(NMMES -TR) program focuses on modernizing these enterprise systems through
agile development, DevSecOps practices, and cloud -based services to deliver
enhanced capabilities to the fleet.

Position Summary

The Software Engineer applies
systematic, disciplined, and quantifiable approaches to the development,
operation, and maintenance of software systems within the NMMES enterprise.
This position establishes software information and engineering requirements for
complex systems that may contain millions of lines of code. The Software
Engineer applies knowledge, tools, and methods across the full software
development lifecycle—including requirements analysis, design, construction,
testing, and maintenance—with the purpose of improving the reliability and
maintainability of software systems. This role requires extensive experience
and judgment to plan and accomplish goals, and may include leading and
directing the work of other team members.
