Description

This is a hands-on engineering role with real impact. You will implement features and modules within the platform, working closely with senior engineers who set the architectural direction. You will grow your scope over time as you build depth in the system and the domain. Sound engineering fundamentals, a bias for writing tested and maintainable code, and a willingness to learn a new and demanding problem space matter more than prior aviation experience.

The platform spans a technically demanding stack: containerized software running on embedded aircraft hardware; a multi-segment cabin network managing VLAN-based traffic prioritization across passenger, crew, and airline operational services; satellite uplink quality-of-service scheduling; cryptographically validated over-the-air software deployments; and a security infrastructure designed to protect certified airborne systems.

The team brings together engineers from avionics and embedded systems, enterprise networking, distributed cloud infrastructure, and aviation certification. You will learn from engineers with backgrounds ranging from embedded software to large-scale distributed systems, and you will be supported with mentorship as you develop into a stronger, more well-rounded engineer.

Responsibilities:

Implement and maintain features and modules - cabin network management, software and configuration lifecycle, connectivity monitoring, and observability - taking components from implementation through production deployment under the guidance of senior engineers.
Write production-quality software for certified embedded environments, meeting DO-178C Level E standards
Contribute to the over-the-air software lifecycle pipeline - cryptographic validation, staged activation, automatic rollback, and version reporting to ground-side fleet systems.
Contribute to observability infrastructure - health endpoints, telemetry collection, built-in test execution, and the ground-side data pipeline for fleet monitoring.
Implement software against interface definitions and Architecture Decision Records defined with senior engineers, raising questions and edge cases that affect cross-workstream alignment.
Write and execute DO-178C-aligned tests, including unit, integration, and requirements-based tests across cabin platforms.
Integrate software across cabin hardware platforms, working within the hardware abstraction layers that keep the codebase portable.
Participate in code reviews and design discussions, and grow your knowledge of aviation-grade development practices.

Basic Qualifications

3+ years of non-internship professional software development experience
2+ years of non-internship design or architecture (design patterns, reliability, and scaling) of new and existing systems experience
Experience programming with at least one software programming language
Experience contributing to the full software development life cycle, including coding standards, code reviews, source control management, build processes, testing, and operations
Experience in embedded development in C/C++, or experience developing software that manages full application stacks from the OS up through custom applications, or experience with network configuration and troubleshooting
BS in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Embedded Systems, Aerospace Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience)

Preferred Qualifications

Experience with Kubernetes, Docker, or the containers ecosystem, or experience with virtualization (Hypervisors, VMware, Xen)
Experience with Linux and networking protocols, including scripting (Bash, PowerShell, Python) and Linux OS and network troubleshooting
Experience with network design fundamentals, including major routing protocols, topology, network hardware, and device configuration
Experience with application security, secure infrastructure, identity and access controls, or secure software development
Experience in aviation, aerospace, or other safety-adjacent embedded software development, including familiarity with the DO-178C Level E software development lifecycle
Experience integrating software with hardware interfaces common in aviation or industrial environments, including serial bus protocols (e.g., ARINC 429), discrete digital signal processing, or hardware abstraction for multi-vendor hardware platforms
Experience writing test plans, use cases, and issue reports for software QA
