Advise Engineering, Legal, Business Development, Operations, and leadership; integrate compliance into ERP, PLM, and business workflows; manage outside counsel; and build the trade compliance team.

Lead Firestorm’s Simulation team and develop a reusable UAS simulation platform supporting aircraft models, sensors, propulsion, flight software, SIL/HIL testing, scenario orchestration, distributed execution, training, and demonstrations. Manage simulation infrastructure, integrations, automated test environments, cross-platform deployment, and team growth. The role requires hands-on software and simulation expertise across complex aircraft, robotics, networking, and hardware systems.

Leads complex aerospace and defense programs from concept through deployment, integrating technical, schedule, cost, resources, risks, vendors, and customer requirements. Coordinates engineering, manufacturing, quality, sales, and business teams; manages program reviews, demonstrations, proposals, and regulatory compliance. Drives cross-functional execution, variant management, continuous improvement, and delivery of mission-critical autonomous systems.

Lead the Firestorm OS engineering team developing a reusable Linux-based software platform for autonomous aircraft. Own platform architecture, shared services, hardware interfaces, SDKs, networking, integration, release execution, reliability, and debugging across complex aircraft systems. Partner with autonomy, avionics, payload, electrical, mechanical, and systems teams while hiring and developing embedded Linux and systems software engineers.

Lead integration of third-party SDKs, APIs, mission systems, payloads, and software into Linux-based autonomous aircraft platforms. Build integration tools, debug issues across networking, hardware interfaces, and distributed systems, and deliver production-ready software. Collaborate across autonomy, avionics, electrical, mechanical, and systems engineering teams. Support field testing and operational integration activities.

Leads defense business development for unmanned ground vehicle systems by identifying DoD opportunities, managing relationships, shaping capture and teaming strategies, and overseeing proposals through contract award. Analyzes markets, acquisition cycles, competitors, and pipeline health while translating technical capabilities into mission-focused solutions. Requires federal and DoD business development experience, familiarity with procurement processes, and the ability to obtain a DoD security clearance. The role is remote with travel up to 25% domestically and internationally.

Design, build, secure, and operate Crucible’s cloud infrastructure across commercial cloud, GovCloud, on-premise, and air-gapped environments. Responsibilities include Kubernetes, Terraform, Helm, GitOps, networking, identity and security controls, CI/CD, observability, distributed-system debugging, deployment tooling, and infrastructure reliability. The role partners with software teams to translate ambiguous requirements into scalable, secure platform solutions.

Build automated end-to-end tests, frameworks, harnesses, services, and infrastructure for autonomous aircraft software across SIL, HIL, and VIL environments. Automate release testing, orchestration, data collection, analysis, and reporting; debug failures across software, networking, hardware, and simulation; expand system coverage; and integrate testing into CI/CD and release workflows.

Build and improve platform security for software operating across cloud, factory, edge, and air-gapped environments. Responsibilities include implementing identity, access control, secrets management, data protection, and system boundaries; hardening Kubernetes, Linux, cloud, and edge deployments; securing software supply chains; automating CI/CD security controls; conducting threat modeling and vulnerability remediation; and supporting accreditation through technical controls, evidence, and system designs.
