Own simulation architecture, engineering quality, testing, debugging, code reviews, and collaboration across teams.

Own the software architecture of autonomous air defense systems, integrating guidance, navigation, and control algorithms into reliable real-time software. Define interfaces and module boundaries, guide development with C++, Python, ROS 2, and Linux, and oversee testing, integration, deployment, and hardware support. The role also involves architectural and code reviews, documentation, mentoring, and collaboration across embedded, GNC, and ground-system teams.

Build and own internal full-stack applications supporting manufacturing, testing, configuration, traceability, and operational data workflows. Integrate PLM, ERP, version control, device fleet, and data platforms through APIs. Collaborate directly with software, hardware, production, and flight-test teams, while owning deployment, monitoring, debugging, reliability, and long-term maintenance of production-critical tools.

Owns the technical requirements baseline for counter-UAS systems, maintaining product specifications, interfaces, implementation status, and end-to-end traceability. Coordinates requirements changes across hardware, software, and systems engineering teams; identifies gaps, conflicts, and dependencies; and supports bids, customer engagements, integration, and delivery readiness. The role contributes to autonomous air defense products and networked defense architectures.

Responsible for payload system safety, integration, verification, and qualification across interceptor platforms. The role leads hazard analyses, safety requirements, safety cases, supplier interfaces, ammunition handling procedures, test campaigns, anomaly investigations, and corrective actions. It requires hands-on ESAD or explosives experience, strong systems engineering practice, familiarity with NATO and military safety standards, and collaboration with defense authorities and suppliers.

Own end-to-end solution architecture for counter-unmanned aircraft systems and their integration with customer IT, command-and-control, cloud, Kubernetes, and on-premises environments. Govern the full IT service lifecycle, apply NAF, ADMBw, TOGAF, BPMN, and ITIL frameworks, and lead internal and external architects across complex defense programs. Represent technical architecture to customers, partners, and integrators while mentoring technical teams.

Provide first-tier employee support and maintain HR documentation, personnel data, contracts, benefits, payroll inputs, time tracking, and employee administration. Support accurate and confidential HR processes while taking ownership of additional People Operations responsibilities.
