ROLE AND POSITION OBJECTIVES:

As a Transmit Group Lead Software Engineer, you will work in a software support role on a small development team responsible for the design, development, integration, production and life cycle maintenance of the active sonar Transmit Group (TG) onboard U.S. Navy submarines. TG produces the high energy pulses of sound that travel through the water to identify targets of interest. The TG team works with the Navy, internal production staff and representatives from other companies that provide companion systems and services to ensure TG systems meet all requirements, are delivered on time and function properly both in a laboratory environment and onboard U.S. Navy submarines.
The principal software tasks will involve interface and control software running on servers that contain unique specialized hardware designed to communicate with the transmit unit as well as software specifically designed to test the transmit hardware. The ideal candidate will be responsible for all phases of software engineering as the team rapidly develops and fields both prototypes and production releases. Activities also include the use of internal process improvement, engineering practices and supplying technical documentation.

DUTIES AND TASKS:

• Lead the design, development, testing, and delivery of advanced software artifacts in support of complex customer requirements.
• Oversee the software engineering lifecycle from requirements gathering, analysis, and documentation to production support and maintenance.
• Maintain existing software and address issues as needed – to include modernization of object oriented programming and implementations.
• Coordinate and direct the integration and testing of the hardware/software transmit suite in the submarine sonar system, ensuring high-quality deliverables.
• Manage the development and production lab computing resources, including the setup, configuration, and maintenance of servers and network infrastructure.
• Collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams including development, hardware engineering, and production to accurately identify, characterize, resolve, document, and track software deficiencies.
• Lead troubleshooting and resolution efforts for transmit group software issues in system integration, test, production, and power lab environments.
• Solve complex hardware/software compatibility and interface design issues, providing expert guidance and solutions.
• Represent the team in interactions with customers ensuring clear communication and alignment with customer expectations.
• Collaborate with project leadership and other engineering departments to achieve project goals and meet project schedules
