About the Role
The Software Engineer III is a versatile and experienced software professional who contributes across multiple domains, including graphical user interface development for test systems, embedded software for controllers, and establishing a new software engineering lab environment. This role combines hands-on software development with infrastructure planning, process definition, and cross-functional collaboration. The ideal candidate is adaptable, resourceful, and comfortable working in a fast-paced environment where priorities shift based on program needs.
Responsibilities
- Design and develop intuitive, reliable graphical user interfaces for engineering test systems, data acquisition environments, or operator consoles.
- Collaborate with test engineers to gather user requirements, optimize workflows, and improve usability.
- Integrate GUIs with back-end systems, test frameworks, and hardware interfaces.
- Ensure maintainability, scalability, and clear documentation of user-facing software components.
- Design, develop, and test embedded software for controllers or hardware-interfacing systems.
- Work closely with systems and hardware engineers to ensure correct functionality, timing, and safety behaviors.
- Develop low-level drivers, communication interfaces, and control logic.
- Support hardware-in-the-loop testing and system integration activities.
- Lead the setup, configuration, and ongoing maintenance of a new software lab environment, including computer resources, tools, networks, and workflows.
- Define and implement processes for lab access, security, configuration management, build pipelines, and continuous integration.
- Develop lab documentation, standards, and training materials for cross-functional engineering teams.
- Coordinate with IT, cybersecurity, systems engineering, and hardware labs to ensure compliance and seamless integration.
- Participate in requirements gathering, design reviews, and technical discussions across the engineering organization.
