  • Understanding of software architecture and system integration principles.
  • Experience with serial communication protocols (RS-232, RS-422, RS-485, UART, etc.).
  • Experience with IP networking and communication protocols (TCP/IP, UDP, Ethernet).
  • Experience coordinating software development activities, schedules, and technical progress.
  • Strong communication skills with the ability to interact with technical teams and program management.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience serving as a software technical lead or software development lead.
  • Embedded systems or real-time software development experience.
  • Experience integrating software with hardware systems.
  • Experience supporting software deployment, installation, or field integration.
  • Aerospace, defense, FAA, DoD, or other mission-critical systems experience.
  • Familiarity with Agile software development methodologies and software configuration management tools (Git, Azure DevOps, Jira, etc.).
  • Must be eligible to work in the U.S. and pass FAA security screening for positions of Public Trust.

Education and Experience:
