Electronic Systems Engineer - Software

In this role, you will make an impact in the following ways:  

• Drive faster issue resolution and product reliability by investigating software defects, identifying root causes, owning corrective actions, and ensuring lessons learned are documented and shared across teams.
• Improve software quality throughout the development lifecycle by applying best practices in coding, compiling, testing, static analysis, and validation to deliver robust and reliable software builds.
• Deliver verified software features that create customer value through close collaboration with product, systems, and software teams, ensuring requirements are translated into high-quality solutions.
• Strengthen product performance and scalability by leveraging systems-level knowledge to influence decisions related to software architecture, design, integration, and testing.
• Enhance cross-functional collaboration by serving as a key technical partner across business units, helping align priorities, resolve integration challenges, and achieve shared product goals.
• Increase team efficiency through process improvement by identifying opportunities to optimize development tools, workflows, testing methods, and engineering practices that improve productivity and quality.
• Provide technical leadership and influence by independently managing moderately complex software components while guiding technicians, student employees, and team members toward successful outcomes.
• Contribute to long-term engineering excellence by continuously building technical expertise, supporting organizational goals, and fostering a culture of accountability, innovation, and continuous improvement.

To be successful in this role you will need the following: 

• Think like a systems engineer by understanding how requirements, architecture, software, hardware, interfaces, and customer needs interact across the entire product lifecycle.
• Master requirements engineering by translating stakeholder needs into clear, measurable, and verifiable requirements while managing changes, priorities, and trade-offs throughout development.
• Prevent problems before they occur by leveraging Failure Mode Avoidance (FMA) techniques to identify risks, analyze potential failure causes, and improve product reliability early in the design process.
• Use data to drive decisions by applying statistical methods, simulations, modeling, experimentation, and analytical tools to evaluate product performance and support engineering recommendations.
• Develop strong software engineering capabilities by applying best practices in software design, construction, verification, and validation to ensure reliable, high-quality product software.
• Become proficient in product verification and validation by developing test strategies, evaluating results, assessing risks, and confirming that products meet both requirements and customer expectations.
• Excel at product problem solving by identifying root causes, implementing robust corrective actions, using data-based decision making, and preventing recurrence of issues that could impact customers.
• Understand product architecture and platform strategy by balancing technical requirements, business needs, future market demands, and lifecycle considerations when evaluating design alternatives.
• Drive cross-functional integration by collaborating effectively with engineering, manufacturing, quality, program management, and other stakeholders to align designs and achieve project objectives.
• Communicate technical information clearly through concise documentation, design reviews, technical reports, and presentations that enable informed decision-making and knowledge transfer.
• Deliver results with strong project execution skills by planning, coordinating, monitoring, and mitigating risks while ensuring quality, schedule, and performance commitments are met.
• Demonstrate sound engineering judgment by making timely, fact-based decisions in situations involving technical complexity, uncertainty, and competing priorities.
• Build influence through collaboration by developing trusted partnerships, valuing diverse perspectives, and working effectively across organizational boundaries to achieve shared goals.
• Commit to continuous learning and self-development by expanding your expertise in systems engineering, software development, product validation, reliability engineering, and emerging technologies.
