TL;DR · Platform Engineer, Radar

Platform Engineer, Radar joins the Battlespace Awareness Radar team to develop and maintain test and release infrastructure for the radar software portfolio. This hands-on role involves building automated validation infrastructure, managing hardware-in-the-loop and software-in-the-loop environments, and creating reproducible radar test-data workflows. You will collaborate with software and firmware engineers to reduce manual validation, detect regressions early, and ensure releases are traceable and auditable. The role requires proficiency in Python for automation, C++ for debugging production code, Git, CI/CD tooling, and Jira within Linux environments. Preferred skills include experience with Nix or NixOS, Docker containerization, and LLM-assisted coding. This position addresses the technical challenge of maturing prototype radar systems into reliable products by establishing robust release assurance workflows and automated testing methodologies to ensure high-quality performance across various hardware platforms.

What you'll do

  • Develop and execute manual and automated test plans for radar software and firmware.
  • Identify, document, and track defects while collaborating with developers to debug root causes.
  • Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines to provide fast feedback across the radar product portfolio.
  • Design and build hardware-in-the-loop and software-in-the-loop test infrastructure including rigs and emulators.
  • Develop tools for the collection, cataloging, and replay of radar test data to ensure reproducibility.
  • Manage release-assurance workflows including generating release notes, software bills of materials, and tracking traceability.
  • Support the deployment of firmware and software updates to lab hardware and fielded units.
  • Improve testing methodologies, coding standards, and release practices as the product portfolio scales.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 3+ years of experience in software quality assurance, software test engineering, or software development infrastructure.
  • Experience developing automated tests at the unit, integration, or system level.
  • Proficiency in Python for test automation and scripting.
  • Working proficiency in C++ to understand, instrument, and debug production software.
  • Experience with Git, CI/CD tooling, and bug-tracking systems like Jira.
  • Experience testing and debugging software in Linux environments.
  • Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance.
  • Experience building or operating hardware-in-the-loop or software-in-the-loop test infrastructure (preferred).
  • Experience with release automation, artifact management, or software configuration management (preferred).
  • Familiarity with Nix/NixOS, Docker, or using LLMs for code analysis (preferred).
