The Role
You will be developing Command and Control application software for the next generation of Ground Based Air Defence Systems.
This is a very hands-on role, and requires the continued design and development of the Command & Control Product Line architecture, and the instantiations for future products. You will be developing C++/C software utilising Rhapsody, DDS, Eclipse IDE.
You’ll be joining a highly motivated team; focussed on delivering quality software product to a challenging schedule, using Agile techniques.
You will ideally have a degree in Computer Science or Software Engineering combined with significant experience in the development of software for COTS hardware. You will have been responsible for complex software solutions and will be comfortable working with engineers from other disciplines, and with international colleagues. It is likely that your experience was gained in defence, automotive, aerospace, telecoms or consumer electronics.
You will favour a collaborative, open approach to development and have the ability to work well in a team, and maintain momentum during development. The software that you develop will be used across multiple products at several sites, so strong communication skills are essential.
You will have extensive experience in model-based development, using UML and tools such as IBM Rhapsody.
Ideally you will have a background in software engineering with knowledge of modern development practices. Knowledge of standards such as DefStan 00-55 and restricted coding standards such as MISRA C would be beneficial.
You will have significant previous experience with embedded C and/or C++, and ideally some Ada. You will have knowledge of DDS middleware and Real Time Operating Systems.
