## Description

Job Description:About the RoleJoin our Health Management and Predictive Analytics team to shape the future of aerospace software.
We are looking for a multidisciplinary Software & Systems Engineer to design and develop advanced ground software tools powering critical aerospace systems and flight operations.
This role sits directly at the intersection of software engineering, systems engineering, and data analytics.
You won't just write code-you will dive deep into complex aircraft architectures, understand component interactions, and transform complex telemetry data into actionable operational insights.
You will play a key role in developing Health and Usage Management Systems (HUMS) across flagship aerospace platforms including the A400M, C295, EuroDrone, SIRTAP, and Hurjet.Why HUMS MattersHUMS is a mission-critical capability designed to monitor real-time equipment health, drive safety, and maximize fleet efficiency:Predictive Maintenance: Detects early wear patterns before failures occur.Operational Safety: Delivers real-time health alerts to prevent critical incidents.Reliability & Efficiency: Optimizes asset lifespan and reduces unscheduled maintenance.Data-Driven Insights: Converts complex flight data into decision-support tools for fleet operations.Key ResponsibilitiesSystem Architecture & Design: Design scalable backend architectures, APIs (REST, gRPC), and ground tools handling complex, large-scale engineering datasets.End-to-End Development: Build applications for data acquisition, processing, analysis, and visualization-from low-level telemetry handling to user-facing
dashboards.Interface & Requirements Definition: Define clear interfaces, boundaries, and system requirements in collaboration with avionics, hardware, and maintenance teams.Predictive Analytics: Apply data analytics, machine learning, and data-driven methods to unlock insights from flight and operational data.Platform Evolution: Drive technical decision-making, system trade-offs, and long-term platform roadmaps using robust engineering practices (CI/CD, containerization).
