## About the Role

* Bachelor's degree in computer science, engineering, mathematics, physics, or another scientific discipline, or 2+ years of professional software experience in lieu of a degree.
 * 1+ years of full-stack development experience.
 * 1+ years of experience writing Python for data processing, services, or user-facing application code.

PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:

 * Experience with video platforms and their infrastructure, including ingest, storage, transcoding, playback, and review of high-volume engineering video.
 * Strong familiarity with large language model tools and capabilities, including how they work and where they can be used, or experience applying them to computer vision problems.
 * Experience with computer vision libraries (OpenCV, Ultralytics), machine learning frameworks (PyTorch, scikit-learn), or serving models for inference, including live inference.
 * Experience with the Python data stack (Pandas, NumPy, SciPy) and with relational databases such as PostgreSQL.
 * Experience with time-series or other signal data, including cleaning, transforming, and analyzing it.
 * Experience profiling and optimizing data-heavy software, such as query latency, memory use, throughput, or interactive rendering of large datasets.
 * Experience with Linux, Docker, Kubernetes, HPC systems, a web application framework, or CI/CD.
 * Experience running production services, including deployment, monitoring, alerting, and incident response.
 * Experience with a second language used for services or applications, such as Go, Rust, or C#.
 * Experience shipping internal tools that engineers rely on in their work., * To conform to U.S. Government export regulations, applicant must be a (i) U.S. citizen or national, (ii) U.S. lawful, permanent resident (aka green card holder), (iii) Refugee under 8 U.S.C. § 1157, or (iv) Asylee under 8 U.S.C. § 1158, or be eligible to obtain the required authorizations from the U.S. Department of State.

## Description

* Design, build, and maintain full-stack applications and platforms used across production, test, and flight, including data processing that turns telemetry, sensor data, or video into analysis engineers can use.
 * Work directly with vehicle, propulsion, test, manufacturing, and inspection engineers on their most important analysis problems.
 * Build the internal tools and web interfaces engineers use to query, visualize, and act on engineering data and on the results of automated analysis.
 * Profile and improve performance where engineers feel it: data processing, database queries, and interactive views of large telemetry or video.
 * Integrate statistical models, computer vision, or large language models into review workflows for anomaly detection and inspection.
 * Move prototypes into production with automated tests, CI/CD, and a repeatable release process.
 * Manage the infrastructure our applications run on, including deployments, monitoring, operations, and capacity planning.
 * Operate the applications in production: respond to failures, restore service, and carry the fix into the software and into how the system is run.
 * Move across processing, interfaces, models, and operations, and learn unfamiliar parts quickly enough to ship.
