About the role
Mission Software Engineer on the Imaging Interfaces team responsible for fielded system health, building and maintaining production services on edge devices, and serving as a technical representative in external integrations. Role involves end-to-end ownership across hardware, firmware, networking, and software in a fast-moving defense tech environment.
Responsibilities
- Own fielded system success. You are responsible for the health and uptime of deployed imaging systems. When issues arise--whether the root cause is in your code, the firmware, the network, or the hardware--you triage, diagnose, and drive resolution.
- Build and maintain production services. You'll develop and extend modular software services that run on edge-compute devices in austere environments. These services need to be reliable, observable, and maintainable by engineers who didn't write them.
- Support field operations. You'll work directly with field operators and non-technical users to diagnose and resolve issues on deployed hardware.
- Represent the team externally. You'll serve as a subject matter expert in integrations with other products and teams; sometimes remotely, sometimes on-site.
- Maintain end-to-end system understanding. Develop broad fluency across hardware, firmware, networking, and software to optimize how services interact and degrade gracefully when components fail.
- Collaborate across teams. Plan, build, and test complex functionality alongside firmware, hardware, and platform engineers.
- Travel approximately 25% of the time for field testing and customer integrations.
Qualifications
- 3+ years of software development with meaningful production ownership
- Deep proficiency in at least one of C++, TypeScript(node.js/React), or Python, and ability to work across the stack in a second language
- Comfort ramping quickly into unfamiliar languages, tools, and deployment systems
- 3+ years working in Linux-based environments, including hands-on work with bare-metal hardware
- Demonstrated ability to diagnose and resolve issues across system boundaries
- Strong written and verbal communication skills
- Eligibility to obtain and maintain a U.S. Secret clearance.
