Robotics Software Engineer, Maneuver Dominance

The role

You will design, develop, and integrate software that connects autonomous platforms with mission payloads. This includes architecting APIs and data transport layers to move information between vehicles, payloads, and ground systems.

What you will do

• Engineer scalable, robust software that interacts with networking devices, managed networks, and common router or switch hardware.
• Design and implement software that interfaces with stores management systems (SMS) and other payload subsystems.
• Architect and implement software APIs and Interface Control Documents (ICDs) using HTTP, REST, and gRPC.
• Build and optimize low-level data transport over UDP and TCP.
• Write code that interfaces directly with hardware, bridging embedded devices, sensors, and payload electronics with higher-level autonomy software.
• Partner with hardware, systems, vehicle, and payload teams to integrate software into physical platforms.
• Travel up to 25% to test, debug, and deploy systems in operational environments.
• Contribute across the entire software lifecycle, including prototyping, implementation, testing, and deployment.
• Analyze and resolve issues in deployed systems.

Required qualifications

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical field.
• 3+ years of hands-on experience developing production-grade software in C++ and/or Rust.
• Experience building software that interacts with networking devices, managed networks, and common router or switch hardware.
• Experience designing and implementing software APIs and ICDs, including work with HTTP, REST, and gRPC.
• Solid understanding of low-level data transport layers, including UDP and TCP.
• Experience writing code that interfaces with hardware (embedded devices, sensors, or payload electronics).
• Ability to navigate and contribute to complex systems and established codebases.
• Willingness to travel up to 25% to test and deploy systems.
• Must be eligible for a US security clearance.

Nice to have

• Direct experience with stores management systems (SMS) or related munitions/payload release systems in aerospace or defense platforms.
• Familiarity with aerospace integration standards, vehicle bus protocols (e.g., MIL-STD-1553, ARINC), or DO-178/DO-254 development practices.
• Experience designing fault-tolerant distributed systems and message-passing frameworks for multi-node coordination.
• Experience with embedded Linux, RTOS, or bare-metal development on resource-constrained hardware.
• Additional experience with Python, Go, or scripting for tooling and test automation.
• Familiarity with profiling and optimizing networked and hardware-interfacing software.

Benefits

• Comprehensive, competitive benefits package available at little to no cost to employees.

Before you apply

• Must be eligible for a US security clearance.
