## Description

You will contribute to the design, development, integration, and test of embedded and application software for advanced missile programs. This cross-functional role involves close collaboration with systems engineering, electrical/hardware design, guidance, and test teams to deliver reliable, real-time software solutions. There are multiple needs: supporting embedded operational flight program (OFP) efforts, creating test and automation software (primarily on Windows platforms), implementing specialized flight algorithms, and supporting integration and qualification testing - all while ensuring compliance with performance, safety, security, and (near) real-time requirements., Support the design, development, modification, and review of embedded software in C/C++ for missile flight control and supporting subsystems.
Develop test programs, automation scripts, and graphical user interfaces (GUIs), primarily on Windows platforms, to support software-in-the-loop (SIL), hardware-in-the-loop (HWIL), integration, and qualification testing.
Support software-hardware integration, including debugging, interface definition, and real-time performance analysis.
Conduct unit and system testing, end-to-end integration testing, code reviews, and support system-level verification and flight-worthiness testing.
Perform root-cause analysis on software issues, implement fixes, and support configuration management and change processes.
Generate and maintain software documentation (in line with Model Based System Engineering (MBSE) expectations), including requirements specifications, design descriptions, test plans, and reports.
Ensure all software complies with customer-required guidelines, coding standards and security requirements.
