shieldai - Senior Systems Engineer - Autonomy & Software
Requirements
• BS or MS in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Systems Engineering, Robotics, or a related technical discipline. • 5+ years of experience developing, integrating, or delivering complex software intensive systems, preferably within aerospace, defense, robotics, or autonomous systems. • Strong software engineering background with hands on experience developing and debugging software in C++ and Python. • Experience with autonomous or robotic systems, including familiarity with areas such as perception, planning, estimation, guidance, navigation, controls, or mission autonomy. • Strong understanding of systems engineering principles and their application to complex defense systems. • Experience developing and managing system and subsystem requirements, including requirements decomposition, allocation, traceability, and verification. • Experience developing system architectures, functional architectures, interface definitions, Interface Control Documents, and other system level engineering artifacts.
Responsibilities
• Apply systems engineering principles to the development and integration of autonomous systems for defense applications. • Translate operational needs, mission objectives, and customer requirements into clear system, subsystem, software, and autonomy requirements. • Develop and maintain system architectures, functional decompositions, interface definitions, Interface Control Documents, requirements traceability, and verification strategies. • Work closely with autonomy, software, guidance, navigation and control, avionics, hardware, test, and platform engineering teams to ensure successful system integration. • Define and manage interfaces between Hivemind Autonomy, vehicle systems, mission systems, sensors, communications, payloads, and external systems. • Maintain a strong understanding of the underlying autonomy and software architecture, including how system level requirements translate into software behavior and implementation. • Develop software, prototypes, analysis tools, test infrastructure, and engineering utilities using C++ and Python when required to solve integration and system level engineering problems. • Use code, simulation, logs, telemetry, and other engineering data to investigate system behavior, diagnose failures, validate assumptions, and support technical decision making. • Lead and support system integration activities across simulation, software in the loop, hardware in the loop, ground test, and flight test environments.
