  • Drive cross-team technical alignment for features spanning firmware, embedded Linux, cloud services, and client applications.
  • Balance long-term maintainability with near-term product delivery.
  • Drive consensus with appropriate stakeholders.
  • Mentor junior software engineers.
  • Create system and software design documentation.
  • Implement, unit-test, and integrate solutions in collaboration with multiple developers.
  • Work with senior engineers to review solutions.
  • Resolve technical issues, reported bugs and field issues in a timely manner.

Qualifications
  • Bachelor or Master's Degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering or Software Engineering.
  • Minimum cumulative GPA 3.00 for all degrees earned.

  • Comfortable working cross-functionally across engineering disciplines and product management.
  • Demonstrated success leading software teams or projects.
  • A passion for coaching and mentoring junior engineers.
  • Proven troubleshooting skills across system boundaries, including diagnosing issues reported from field or customer environments.

The heart of software development at Lutron starts with these principles:
  • Teams own "Problems to Solve" - Teams own high level objectives, outlined by the business, and engineer the solution to solve these problems.
  • Continuous Improvement - As we shorten our release cycles and deliver always-connected software solutions, we are building the infrastructure to listen to our customers through feedback and data. We practice SAFe Agile Framework to ensure our teams are continuously improving and evolving with the needs of our customers.
