Job Description
Play a central role in delivering integrated solutions built around our core autonomy platform— Hivemind —which is already operating in high-stakes, real-world missions. This isn’t a traditional engineering role. You’ll work at the intersection of software, systems architecture, and autonomy—partnering across teams to turn complex design visions into operational reality. You won’t just build systems; you’ll help define how autonomous technologies are designed, developed, and deployed.
Define end-to-end system requirements, from solution level to specific implementations of software. Support the design & development process for the software system architecture. Use MBSE tools to document, maintain & extend existing architecture in support of new integrations & capabilities. Develop and maintain models using Unified Modeling Language (UML), Systems Modeling Language (SysML), and/or Unified Profile for DoDAF/MODAF (UPDM). Collaborate with SMEs for improved tooling and connection to code for automated system models. Lead cross-functional teams on projects. Engage cross-functionally with product management, program management, mechanical engineering, embedded engineering, business development, and other company leaders. Report status, risks, accomplishments, expectations to senior leadership.
