About the role
Overview:
Sedaro is hiring a Senior Software Engineer to strengthen the performance and reliability of our distributed
multi-physics simulation platform. In this role, you will contribute to the development of our simulation runtimes and leverage the cloud for cutting-edge performance and scale.
Team: Simulator, reporting to the Team Lead
Location:
In person in Arlington, VA or Boston, MA
U.S. Citizen or permanent resident status required
Who We Are:
Our simulation platform enables digital mission engineering through distributed, scalable, faster than real-time analyses across hundreds of interacting systems. We achieve this by ingesting simulation functions, models, and data, and generating high-performance code and architecture specialized for the given scenario. We maintain runtimes for both massively parallel execution in the cloud as well as execution in resource-constrained environments such as autonomous edge devices. Our technology is built with Rust, Kubernetes, gRPC, and Python. Join us as an early employee and transform how teams collaboratively engineer the next generation of Aerospace & Defense systems.
Who You Are:
You are energized by novel challenges and unsolved problems
You are meticulous in your designs to ensure reliability and extensibility
You are motivated to deliver optimized, high-performance systems
You explore existing solutions to problems to choose the right tool for the job
You enjoy a fast-moving work environment and drive progress on decisions and projects
What You’ll DoEnable increasingly massive distributed simulations
Lead development of features for both our cloud and edge simulation runtimes
Optimize and track performance metrics of our simulations
Maximize parallelism and caching in our build systems and services

Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
