Work across networking, autonomy, systems integration, and robotics to build, monitor, and troubleshoot deployed solutions, collaborate with customers and multidisciplinary teams, and scale platform capabilities for operational use.

As a Mission Software Engineer, you'll develop and deploy mission-critical software for autonomous systems, engaging with interdisciplinary teams to solve real-world challenges.

Lead development and maintenance of low-level embedded control software for uncrewed surface vessels. Design and optimize drivers for CAN and RS485, integrate subsystems, set up HIL test environments, collaborate with hardware and autonomy teams, and produce documentation and test artifacts.

Lead the on-vehicle autonomy team to design, build, integrate, and field autonomy software for autonomous surface vessels. Own navigation, planning, control, behaviors, safety logic, and autonomy execution; drive architecture, testing, simulation, HIL, field deployments, and cross-functional integration while mentoring engineers and ensuring mission-ready, maintainable autonomy systems.

Lead technical direction and execution of autonomy systems for maritime autonomous vehicles. Own architecture and integration across perception, planning, controls, multi-agent coordination, simulation, testing, and field deployment. Mentor senior engineers, drive engineering practices, translate customer needs into requirements, and ensure autonomy capabilities mature from prototype to robust, fielded mission systems.

Deploy and operate small UAS alongside military units, plan and brief drone operations, support hardware/software testing and demonstrations, provide operator feedback to engineering, refine tactics and procedures, and collaborate across Mission Operations to ensure mission success.

Lead and scale the product organization for multi-domain autonomous systems. Own the capability roadmap, standards, and cross-functional alignment while engaging customers, evaluating technologies, and driving portfolio OKRs to deliver mission-focused outcomes.

Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines, self-service tooling, and IaC for cloud infrastructure. Deploy and operate containerized workloads, implement observability and secure pipelines, participate in incident response, and collaborate with engineering teams to improve reliability and developer velocity.

Design, build, and operate highly concurrent, distributed backend services in Go. Drive architecture, performance optimization, reliability, observability, and secure development practices. Partner with frontend, platform, autonomy, and embedded teams to deliver mission-critical systems from edge devices to cloud production.

Design, build, and operate secure, scalable AWS cloud infrastructure and Kubernetes (EKS) platforms using Infrastructure as Code. Create self-service tooling and CI/CD pipelines, enforce security best practices, improve reliability and observability, and collaborate with backend, SRE, data, autonomy, and security teams to support mission-critical autonomous systems and compliance requirements.

Build and scale high-performance, data-driven React web applications and visualization-heavy, map-based interfaces. Integrate with REST/GraphQL APIs, optimize rendering for real-time large datasets, contribute to frontend architecture, reusable UI systems, testing, and cross-functional collaboration to support mission-critical workflows.

Build and scale performant, data-driven React web applications and reusable UI components. Integrate with REST/GraphQL backends, support real-time data and map-based visualizations, optimize rendering for large datasets, collaborate across product, design, and backend teams, and maintain frontend architecture, testing, and documentation for mission-critical systems.

Design, build, and operate scalable, highly concurrent backend services in Go. Architect distributed, fault-tolerant systems, optimize performance and reliability, define APIs and service boundaries, improve observability and operational readiness, and collaborate cross-functionally to support mission-critical autonomous deployments.

Build internal dashboards, data pipelines, integrations, and lightweight apps to automate workflows and improve visibility across operations, finance, HR, and programs. Rapidly prototype AI-assisted tools, connect systems via APIs/databases/spreadsheets, ensure data quality, and collaborate with non-technical stakeholders to deliver practical analytics solutions.

Lead technical execution for robotics, autonomy, software, hardware, and defense programs. Own schedules, risks, dependencies, integration and test planning, field testing, stakeholder communication, and delivery of mission-ready systems while coordinating cross-functional engineering and customer teams.

As an Embedded Perception Engineer, you'll develop perception pipelines for autonomous systems, focusing on vision model development, sensor fusion, and optimization on embedded hardware.

As a Robotics Engineer, you will design and deploy autonomy systems for unmanned ground vehicles, implementing control algorithms, integrating perception pipelines, and ensuring system reliability through field testing and debugging.
