- Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U.S. and allied military capabilities with advanced technology. By bringing the expertise, technology, and business model of the 21st century’s most innovative companies to the defense industry, is changing how military systems are designed, built and sold. ’s family of systems is powered by Lattice OS, an AI-powered operating system that turns thousands of data streams into a realtime, 3D command and control center. As the world enters an era of strategic competition, is committed to bringing cutting-edge autonomy, AI, computer vision, sensor fusion, and networking technology to the military in months, not years.
- Own customer success through the design and delivery of a fully operational mission system for a new Maneuver Dominance platform.
- Partner with the Vehicle Software team that is responsible for core sensor, actuator, and vehicle system functionality. Collaborate on interfacing requirements between Vehicle Management System and Mission System stacks.
- Oversee payload system integration with the host vehicle mission system stack.
- Oversee weapon system integration, including compliance with applicable munitions/range safety and export control requirements.
- Drive architecture selection and design for robotic mission systems, including hardware selection, compute, storage and network architecture, with explicit consideration of modular open systems approaches (MOSA/WOSA), STANAG 4586 interoperability, and standard weapon/payload interfaces (MIL-STD-1760, MIL-STD-1553). Service orchestration and other software platform concerns that balance constraints, restrictions and requirements in a multi-stakeholder environment.
- Own the mission system’s interoperability and open-architecture posture, including compliance with MOSA/WOSA principles, STANAG 4586/4671 (UAS control and airworthiness interoperability), and AEDP/AGRA-aligned genealogy/airworthiness data practices where applicable to Thunder’s certification pathway.
- Define and own the payload/weapon interface control documents (ICDs) governing MIL-STD-1760 (aircraft/store electrical interconnection) and MIL-STD-1553 (data bus) integration between the mission system and third-party payload/weapon vendors.
- Partner with airworthiness/certification stakeholders to ensure mission system design supports Thunder’s path to airworthiness approval (e.g., MOSA-based airworthiness/AGRA-style genealogy tracking, safety case development) given the Archer eVTOL codevelopment structure.
- Contribute to the design and development of a company-wide roadmap for mission system integration into Maneuver Dominance platforms, including necessary software inputs.
- Lead teams that develop software that runs on- and off-platform, using a variety of technologies.
- Drive the design and implementation of development processes for the initial delivery and subsequent iteration of mission software, including full lifecycle testing.
- Drive the creation of test and simulation fixtures that operate with both software- and hardware-in-the-loop.
- Support vehicle manufacturing and deployment.
- Lead teams of multi-disciplinary engineers, including as a mentor for Senior Software Engineers from differing backgrounds.
- Leverage internal product and program-specific engineering teams to rapidly deliver capability beyond the scope of current platforms, with a clear path for both architecture and capability evolution over time.
- Travel to co-locate with end-users and/or other teams up to 25% of the time.
