TL;DR · SW Integration Engineer, Staff

As a senior-level HWIL Software Integration Engineer at Lockheed Martin, you will provide technical leadership in developing and integrating high-performance software models with missile hardware components to create real-time closed-loop simulations. Your day-to-day responsibilities include defining the software architecture for HWIL test beds, leading cross-functional teams, ensuring end-to-end latency budgets are met, implementing synchronization mechanisms between hardware and simulation models, and authoring comprehensive verification plans. You will work extensively with C/C++, real-time operating systems like RedHawk or VxWorks, and low-latency communication protocols such as Ethernet/IP and MIL STD 1553. Additionally, you will engage directly with government stakeholders to clarify requirements and resolve issues, applying hands-on skills in RF testing and high-speed data acquisition systems. This role demands expertise in missile hardware interfaces and model-based development environments for real-time execution, ensuring adherence to industry standards and Lockheed Martin best practices.

What you'll do

  • Define and evolve software architecture for HWIL test beds, ensuring real time code and low latency data pathways.
  • Lead development and integration of missile flight software into closed loop simulation environments, including 6 DOF dynamics.
  • Ensure end to end latency budgets are met for hardware to software interfaces using techniques like jitter budgeting and priority scheduling.
  • Implement synchronization mechanisms between missile hardware and RTOS/FPGA platforms running simulation models in real time.
  • Direct software hardware integration activities, overseeing debugging of interface protocols and data integrity issues.
  • Author and approve comprehensive verification plans, ensuring traceability to requirements and producing formal validation reports.

What we're looking for

  • 5+ years of experience in software development, real time integration, and HWIL environments.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Engineering, Software Engineering, or related STEM field; Master’s preferred.
  • Active Secret clearance required (interim at start).
  • Proficiency in C/C++ and real-time operating systems like RedHawk, VxWorks, RTLinux.
  • Strong hands-on skills with RF testing equipment and missile hardware interfaces.
  • Proven ability to lead multidisciplinary teams and influence senior stakeholders.
