This position is based on-site in either our Santa Barbara/Goleta, CA office, Arlington, VA office, or Reston, VA office.

Key Responsibilities

• Drive yourself and all of your team to become better software engineers.
• Collaborate with a cross-disciplinary engineering team to design, develop, and maintain reliable, fault-tolerant flight and payload software.
• Architect and implement software to meet high-level system requirements, while managing interfaces with multiple spacecraft subsystems, ground systems and hardware.
• Develop command and control software for spacecraft flight operations, payloads, and peripheral electronics.
• Contribute to and lead test campaigns, from unit-level testing to automated system and subsystem-level testing.
• Create and maintain detailed documentation for software operation and interfaces with other system components.
• Present high level technical concepts simply and clearly to non-technical audiences.
• Take on additional professional duties as assigned.
