The software is developed in ADA, and you will collaborate within a small team throughout the Software Development Lifecycle, covering requirements, architecture, detailed design, implementation, testing, and delivery of missile subsystem software.
The role involves interfacing with stakeholders across disciplines such as systems design, electronics, safety, security, and quality.
What we're looking for from you:
A software engineer focused on embedded software development for real-time systems:
* Significant experience developing embedded software using Ada, C, and C++
* Experience with model-based development tools like UML or IBM Rhapsody
* A 'can-do' and flexible approach, enjoying solving technical problems beyond just software
* Strong focus on code quality, including participating in code and design reviews
* Ability to develop maintainable and extensible code to adapt to changing requirements
* Effective communication and collaboration skills with stakeholders across various disciplines
