Lead Senior Software Engineer

Description The Naval Surface Warfare Center Panama City Division (NSWC PCD) Littoral & Mine Warfare Department has a requirement to support the development, deployment and sustainment of the Mine Warfare and Environmental Decision Aids Library (MEDAL) Program that provides mine warfare situational awareness, mission planning and evaluation, and asset management software to support existing and emerging mine warfare missions, users, and systems. MEDAL software products will be installed on Mine Warfare (MIW) resources via host or expeditionary computing systems in order to provide resident users with the ability to access MIW tools and data repositories. MEDAL provides MIW planners with the ability to create, display, evaluate, assess, and store MIW mission plans for individual MIW resources, in specific environments, against particular threats. The current implementation of MEDAL is known as MEDAL Enterprise Architecture (MEDAL EA) and consists of a suite of software tools that collectively support mission planning and evaluation of Mine Countermeasures (MCM) and Mining missions for US Naval forces. This Performance Work Statement (PWS) identifies Contractor requirements to provide programmatic, financial reporting, in-service engineering services, software sustainment activities, software development, training, testing and technical support for the MEDAL program.
