The Software Engineer will develop high-performance software for distributed edge and cloud systems, process data streams, optimize software, collaborate with customers, and mentor peers.

Develop, integrate, and field autonomy software for expeditionary unmanned aircraft (V-BAT/X-BAT). Own features from software-in-the-loop to live flight tests, collaborate with aircraft and perception teams, lead technical integration, support field deployments and mission testing, and troubleshoot hardware/software issues.

Develop, integrate, and field autonomy capabilities for novel platforms (space, maritime, unmanned helicopters). Own end-to-end integration from software- and hardware-in-the-loop to live tests, partner with platform and cross-functional teams, support on-site testing, debug hardware/software issues, document designs, and improve integration and testing processes.

Lead technical strategy and engineering for autonomy on new platforms (space, maritime, contested logistics). Define architecture, guide development and integration, mentor senior engineers, support testing and deployments, resolve complex hardware/software integration issues, and transition R&D into operational programs.

Develop, integrate, and field autonomy software for launched effects platforms, owning features from design through live flight testing. Drive technical execution, collaborate with autonomy, perception, and vendor teams, support system bring-up and field operations, and implement C2 interoperability and deployment processes. Travel to tests and customer exercises to support mission execution and debugging.

Lead technical delivery and integration of autonomy software for launched effects, including autopilot integration, multi-agent coordination, and fleet-scale deployments. Collaborate with autonomy, perception, vendors, and customers; lead design, testing, debugging, mission support, documentation, and pre-deployment readiness for disconnected or air-gapped operational environments.

Lead technical delivery and integration of autonomy software for V-BAT and X-BAT, defining flight-autonomy interfaces, integrating payloads and mission autonomy, coordinating cross-team engineering, ensuring mission readiness, supporting flight tests and deployments, mentoring engineers, and improving integration workflows and testing infrastructure.

Lead technical direction and integration for launched-effects autonomy across platforms. Develop and field mission autonomy, multi-agent coordination, and platform interfaces; drive architecture, standards, testing, deployments, and mentor senior engineers while supporting flight tests and operational customers.

Lead technical delivery and integration of autonomy software for new platforms (air, maritime, space). Own end-to-end development, testing, and fielding of autonomy features, mentor teams, drive architecture and ICDs, support live tests, and transition R&D into operational capabilities.

Lead technical direction and architecture for expeditionary autonomy across V-BAT and X-BAT. Drive development, integration, validation, and fielding of mission autonomy, flight-autonomy interfaces, payloads, and multi-agent capabilities. Mentor senior engineers, influence cross-team engineering standards, support deployments and operational readiness, and define long-term strategy and interoperability for defense customers.

Technical lead for production database and storage systems: define and execute cloud DB/storage architecture and strategy focused on reliability, scalability, observability, and security. Support and operate large-scale self-managed and AWS-managed databases, lead incident response and RCA, run HA/DR drills, mentor engineers, participate in on-call rotation, and use AI code-generation tools to improve infrastructure delivery.

Owner/operator of the platform that deploys and runs customer environments. Build and automate infrastructure as code, improve Kubernetes platforms, write infrastructure tests and documentation, enhance observability, reliability, security, and recoverability, and remove manual operational work through automation and pair engineering.

Lead SRE efforts for DFIN SaaS: ensure availability, performance, scalability, and automation. Implement monitoring, CI/CD, IaC, container orchestration, AI-enhanced observability, incident response, RCA, and runbook automation while collaborating across engineering teams.

Design and sell cloud object-storage solutions using S3-compatible platforms. Partner with customers and channel partners through the sales cycle, troubleshoot storage, networking, and integration issues, create technical documentation and best practices, and collaborate with Sales, Product, Engineering, and Support to improve customer experience.

Maintain and improve multi-cloud Kubernetes infrastructure, CI/CD (Argo Workflows/ArgoCD), observability, and networking. Build reliable continuous deployment tooling and onboarding flows, provide internal support, collaborate across Platform Engineering, contribute upstream (open-source/operators), and participate in a 24/7 on-call rotation to resolve deployment infrastructure issues.

Develop and execute UVM/SystemVerilog-based verification for AR display integrated circuits. Build assertion-based testbenches, create and run verification plans with functional and code coverage, use Siemens Questa for simulation and debug, and automate verification flows while collaborating with digital, analog, software, and verification teams.

The Data Center Engineer will manage physical servers and network hardware, ensuring their installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting, along with overseeing documentation and vendor coordination.

The Senior Infrastructure Engineer will improve system reliability and efficiency, develop standards and tooling, and collaborate with engineering teams to optimize workflows and cloud infrastructure.

Lead the Mapping Engineering team as a Staff Software Engineer, focusing on designing scalable distributed backend systems for autonomous vehicle mapping, collaborating with cross-functional teams, and mentoring engineers.

The Senior Site Reliability Engineer will develop and support distributed storage services, ensuring reliability and operational safety, with a focus on automation and efficiency.

Maintain and optimize SaaS production and demo environments, respond to and resolve incidents, manage Jira-based incident workflows, use Dynatrace and observability tools for troubleshooting, automate operational tasks, enforce security best practices, document runbooks in Confluence, participate in on-call rotation, and collaborate cross-team to improve reliability and performance.

Lead development of AI-assisted reliability tooling, own incident response end-to-end, improve observability and SLO/SLI frameworks, scale single-tenant SaaS operations, mentor engineers, and reduce recurring operational toil through engineering and automation.

Lead and mentor a DevOps team to design, implement, and maintain CI/CD pipelines, cloud infrastructure, IaC, container orchestration, monitoring, security controls, disaster recovery, and on-call support to ensure scalable, reliable, and secure systems.
