Sr Principal Real-time Software Engineer

The engineer joins Raytheon’s Effectors Center and contributes to the full lifecycle of real-time embedded software, from architecture and implementation through integration, testing, debugging, and deployment. The work supports heterogeneous systems that combine processors, FPGA firmware, operating systems, device drivers, and mission-critical control functions. In an Agile or Lean integrated team, this person collaborates with product owners, chief engineers, and specialists from multiple disciplines to improve reliability, testability, safety, and measurable quality. The role also includes design reviews, proposal support, technical leadership, and coaching of less experienced staff. It suits an experienced embedded software architect or developer who is comfortable with hardware-software integration, time-sensitive systems, and cleared defense programs.
