As a Staff Software Engineer in the Maritime portfolio team, you will lead the technical delivery of complex software systems for autonomous maritime missions, acting as both an individual contributor and a team leader. Your responsibilities include designing and implementing MOSA-compliant systems that integrate various sensors and platforms, developing frontend and backend systems for our Single Pane of Glass orchestration engine, and deploying capabilities to edge devices in constrained environments. You will also drive architectural decisions for robotic systems, manage software development across on-and-off-platform technologies, and build high-fidelity SITL/SIL testing environments. The role requires expertise in HTTP, gRPC, and a strong background in robotics or computer science, with familiarity in the defense context being highly beneficial.

What you'll do

  • Own the design and delivery of a multi-year software and hardware roadmap for maritime products.
  • Design MOSA-compliant systems to integrate first and third-party sensors and legacy defense platforms.
  • Develop frontend and backend systems for Single Pane of Glass orchestration engine enabling single-operator management.
  • Deploy capabilities to edge devices in constrained, communications-denied environments.
  • Drive architecture selection for robotic systems considering hardware, compute, storage, network, and software platform constraints.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor’s degree in Robotics, Mechatronics, Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent experience
  • Secret security clearance required
  • Proven ability to lead and deliver complex software projects across multiple teams
  • Experience designing MOSA-compliant systems for plug-and-play integration of sensors and payloads
  • Expertise in developing frontend and backend systems for multi-domain robotic operations
  • Strong background in deploying software to edge devices in constrained environments
  • Deep understanding of architecture selection and design for robotic systems, including hardware and network constraints
